Encountering and Identifying Different Forms of Domestic Violence in Shelters and Community Care Services in Finland During the COVID-19 Pandemic.
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.
期刊介绍:
We all face the difficult problem of understanding and treating the perpetrators and victims of violence behavior. Violence and Victims is the evidence-based resource that informs clinical decisions, legal actions, and public policy. Now celebrating its 25th year, Violence and Victims is a peer-reviewed journal of theory, research, policy, and clinical practice in the area of interpersonal violence and victimization. It seeks to facilitate the exchange of information on this subject across such professional disciplines as psychology, sociology, criminology, law, medicine, nursing, psychiatry, and social work.
