[Men and women living in marital violence: socioeconomic aspects]. / Homens e mulheres em vivência de violência conjugal: características socioeconômicas.

Quantitative and descriptive study aiming to identify socioeconomic characteristics of men and women with a history of domestic violence. We conducted interviews with 50 men and 50 women. Nearly all subjects were self-declared black. Most did not have too many years of school education. Men perform occupations that are public and women do predominantly domestic activities. Only 3 women (6%) are considered financially independent. The degree of economic dependence is directly related to the level of education that has been established as a prerequisite to enter into the labor market. The situation is even more precarious for women interviewed with fewer years of education and a high degree of financial dependence that interferes with their empowerment to address domestic violence. Health professionals, especially nurses, should address the social inequities and improve the socioeconomic context of users to identify situations that endanger the health of the population.

Psychosocial care for people with suicidal behavior from the perspective of users and health professionals. / Atenção psicossocial às pessoas com comportamento suicida na perspectiva de usuários e profissionais de saúde.

OBJECTIVE: To understand the implications of the assistance provided to people with suicidal behavior within the scope of the Psychosocial Care Network, from the perspective of users and health professionals. METHOD: A qualitative research, under the theoretical framework of complex and methodological thinking in Grounded Theory. Interviews were conducted from May to December 2017, with users assisted due to suicidal behavior and with health professionals in psychosocial care settings. The comparative data analysis technique was used. RESULTS: 18 users and health professionals participated. Non-acceptance intensifies users' introspection, demotivation and hopelessness, increasing the difficulty of exposing their desires. In situations of embracement, availability and bonding with professionals, patients feel more open, to the point of giving new meanings to life and reducing thoughts of death. CONCLUSION: Weaknesses and potentialities were noticed in the care provided by health professionals to users with suicidal behavior, within the scope of the Psychosocial Care Network. The need for management committed to the quality of care in the face of the risk of suicide stands out.

Social representations of family and violence.

The idea of family alludes to relations of protection. Generally, the thought and idealized family connotes hegemony. In Brazil, adopting the idea of families would be more appropriate considering the ethnic and cultural multiplicity. However, it is in this refuge that generally involves relations between adults, youth and children, that domestic violence occurs, which is a social phenomenon of alarming relevance. This review article aimed to discuss the relation between social representations of family and violence in a space of family relations, from studies performed with various social groups composed of women and/or men, children, health professionals and health managers. Theses and dissertations, developed in the Federal Universities of Pernambuco and Bahia, Brazil, were used as the study base. The studies full reading was followed by a registration form. The results pointed the family as a moral value that makes difficulty breaking relations of violence. The existent paradigms in social and health areas that influence and establish professional actions, do not answer to the consideration of the phenomenon family violence.

["I say no, she says yes": matrimonial violence according to male speech]. / "Eu digo não, ela diz sim": a violência conjugal no discurso masculino.

This study aims to analize the violence between couples from the man's point of view. We adopted a qualitative methodology approach having as reference the Social Representation Theory. Ten adult men took part in the survey. They live in the Calafate community, in San Martin, Salvador-BA and had a relationship for at least 2 years. In order to collect the data, a semi-estructured interview was used. As a result, it was observed that the respondents agree directly with the process of men and women's socialization in order to define the way husband and wife behave in a relationship. This is an asymetric and hierarchical perspective, where the masculine tendencies are defined by the society, as well as the women's undefined social role. These two motives are pointed out as the explanation for the violence between couples.

Women experiencing the intergenerationality of conjugal violence.

OBJECTIVE: to analyze the family relationship, in childhood and adolescence, of women who experience conjugal violence. METHOD: qualitative study. Interviews were held with 19 women, who were experiencing conjugal violence, and who were resident in a community in Salvador, Bahia, Brazil. The project was approved by the Research Ethics Committee (N. 42/2011). RESULTS: the data was organized using the Discourse of the Collective Subject, identifying the summary central ideas: they witnessed violence between their parents; they suffered repercussions from the violence between their parents: they were angry about the mother's submission to her partner; and they reproduced the conjugal violence. The discourse showed that the women witnessed, in childhood and adolescence, violence between their parents, and were injured both physically and psychologically. As a result of the mother's submission, feelings of anger arose in the children. However, in the adult phase of their own lives, they noticed that their conjugal life resembled that of their parents, reproducing the violence. CONCLUSION: investment is necessary in strategies designed to break inter-generational violence, and the health professionals are important in this process, as it is a phenomenon with repercussions in health. Because they work in the Family Health Strategy, which focuses on the prevention of harm and illness, health promotion and interdepartmentality, the nurses are essential in the process of preventing and confronting this phenomenon.

Gender violence: social representations of relatives / Violencia de género: representaciones sociales de los familiares / Violência de gênero: representações sociais de familiares

ABSTRACT This study aimed at analyzing the social representations of gender violence by family members. A qualitative study based upon the Theory of Social Representations. The free word association test was undertaken by 81 relatives of women who suffered gender violence registered in Family Health Units of Jequié, Bahia. The data were submitted to correspondence factorial analysis in the Tri-deux-mots software. The relatives' representation of gender violence is rooted in unequal gender relations observed in the hierarchy of social relations between the man and the women, which legitimizes gender violence. Younger relatives highlighted the sexist attitudes while those aged 40 years and older highlighted the role of women as caregivers. Evangelical relatives emphasized the subordination of women while relatives who follow other religions emphasized the suffering. We emphasize the need to implement actions to address violence considering these representations in the healthcare services.

RESUMO: Estudo que objetivou analisar as representações sociais das relações familiares no contexto da violência de gênero. A presente pesquisa, qualitativa, baseou-se na Teoria das Representações Sociais e foi realizada com 19 familiares de mulheres em situação de violência de gênero, cadastrados em unidades da Estratégia Saúde da Família de Jequié, Bahia. A coleta ocorreu por meio da entrevista semiestruturada, entre abril e setembro de 2014, e a organização dos dados seguiu a técnica da análise de conteúdo. As representações sociais dos familiares mostraram a violência de gênero como crime e pontuaram a necessidade de ações que minimizem a sua ocorrência. Elas também assinalaram que a violência de gênero gera adoecimento dos familiares e restringe-se ao espaço privado da casa, favorecendo o silêncio. Urge a adequação da formação em saúde e educação e dos serviços assistenciais da rede de violência, observando as políticas públicas no enfrentamento da violência de gênero.
