Resumen
- A Pilot Study of Emotional Dependence on Couple Aggressors Attending an Intervention Program for Penalties and Alternative Measures. Violence against women is a problem with multiple determinants. Specifically, the following study aims to analyze the correlation between emotional dependence and gender violence in male aggressors. Participants in this pilot study were 53 men between ages of 20 and 71 (M= 43.17; DT= 12.507), attending the intervention program for aggressors in the service of handling penalties and alternative measures (Principado de Asturias, España). A direct correlation between emotional dependence and intimate partner violence could not be established. However, a correlation between psychological and physical violence was established, psychological psychological violence being the most frequent. Also it was observed a high number of external causes reported by the participants. Violent behaviors carried out within the couple would result from a combination of both individual variables of the aggressor and their environment. Suggestions are made for future interventions seeking to reduce the incidence of such aggressions.
