Abstract

During the COVID-19 pandemic, restrictions such as lockdowns and social distancing have been used to control coronavirus. These restrictions may increase the risk of domestic violence (DV) and discourage victims from getting help. We examined the consequences that the pandemic had on different forms of DV and different victim groups of DV. An online survey of shelter clients (N = 47), interviews with clients in community care services (N = 2), and eight focus group interviews with professionals (N = 27) working in shelters and community care services were used for data. We used a mixed-methods approach in the analysis, which showed that clients in shelters reported more violence during the pandemic than prepandemic. Psychological, controlling, and financial violence increased the most during the pandemic, according to the survey data. Coercive control was the most visible type of violence from the perspective of three vulnerable groups: intimate partners, children, and migrants. The research findings will help us arrange services to identify and better manage pandemic lockdown-associated violence.

在 COVID-19 大流行期间,芬兰庇护所和社区护理服务机构遇到并识别不同形式的家庭暴力。
在 COVID-19 大流行期间,封锁和社会疏远等限制措施被用来控制冠状病毒。这些限制措施可能会增加家庭暴力(DV)的风险,并阻碍受害者寻求帮助。我们研究了大流行对不同形式的家庭暴力和不同的家庭暴力受害者群体所造成的影响。数据来源包括对庇护所客户的在线调查(47 人)、对社区护理服务客户的访谈(2 人),以及对在庇护所和社区护理服务机构工作的专业人士的 8 次焦点小组访谈(27 人)。我们在分析中使用了混合方法,结果显示,与大流行前相比,避难所中的受访者报告了更多的大流行期间暴力事件。调查数据显示,大流行期间,心理暴力、控制暴力和经济暴力增加最多。从亲密伴侣、儿童和移民这三个弱势群体的角度来看,胁迫性控制是最明显的暴力类型。研究结果将帮助我们安排服务,以识别和更好地管理与大流行锁定相关的暴力。
