DIFERENCIAS DE GÉNERO EN AFRONTAMIENTO Y VIOLENCIA EN LA PAREJA (Gender differences in coping and violence in couple relationships)
Abstract
Este artículo tiene como objetivo estimar diferencias de género en el afrontamiento de problemas de la pareja y estudiar su relación con violencia en este contexto. Se realizó un estudio ex post facto transversal. A una muestra no probabilística de 223 mujeres y 177 hombres mexicanos con pareja heterosexual (51.5% mantenían relaciones de noviazgo, 47.5% estaban casados y 1% vivían en unión libre) se les aplicó la Escala de Estrategias de Manejo de Conflictos y Cuestionario de Violencia en la Pareja. Se observó una prevalencia del patrón de agresor activo, en el que la persona es incapaz de modificar su postura, adopta estrategias de evitación ante el conflicto y aparenta acomodarse, pero finalmente ejerce violencia contra la pareja, la cual reacciona con violencia cuanta más pasividad el agresor mostró durante el conflicto. Este modelo es válido para ambos géneros, aunque posee más potencia explicativa en hombres. Se hacen sugerencias para enfocar la terapia.
