Summary: | The article discusses intimate partner violence (IPV) before and during the
COVID-19 pandemic, focusing on the extent to which victimization has
changed. International studies on IPV have attributed victimization to the
social character of the sexes, with an explicit analysis of gender
attitudes, beliefs and gender roles. Consistent with this international
approach, the gender attitudes of individuals are used to examine the link
between social character and victimization. The study draws on a sample of
mainly young adults as the empirical basis for a quantitative analysis
conducted at a German University in the spring of 2021. The article explores
the extent to which gender stereotypes occur, their impact on the likelihood
of victimization and how the COVID-19 pandemic has affected IPV and role
models. |
