PRECIADO-GAVIDIA, Paola Marcela; TORRES-CENDALES, Nancy Elizabeth e REY-ANACONA, César Armando. Women who finished a violent relationship: Personality, psychopathological, and socio-demographic characteristics. Univ. Psychol. [online]. 2012, vol.11, n.1, pp.43-54. ISSN 1657-9267.
This study examined the personality, psychopathological, and socio-demographic characteristics of women that concluded a violent partner relationship (n = 54), comparing them with women that continued with this type of relationship (n = 41). The participants are between 1S-60 years (M = 37.4). The applied instruments were a socio-demographic survey, the Big Five Questionnaire of Personality (Caprara, Barbaranelli, Borgogni & Perugini, 1995), and the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview (Sheehan & Lecrubier, 2000). The participants that finished the abusive relationship presented bigger punctuations in the dimensions of Agreeableness, Emotional Stability, and Openness, a lower number of children, bigger help-seeking in government institutions after the violence episodes, and a lower prevalence of mayor depressive episode, dysthymia, low suicidal risk, panic disorder, agoraphobia, and generalized anxiety.
