Changing values : attitudes about intimate partner violence in immigrants and natives in five Western countries Pilar Rodriguez Martinez and Huzefa Khalil - Routledge, 2017 - Deviant Behavior .
Deviant Behavior, 2017, 38(3); 241–253
This article explores attitudes about Intimate Partner Violence Against Women (IPVAW) amongst immigrant (first and second generation) and native populations in five post-industrial societies (Germany, Netherlands, New Zealand, Sweden, and USA). Note that the term "natives" refers to respondents born in the country surveyed. In this article "second generation" respondents are those where both their mother and father was born outside the surveyed country. Using the sixth wave of World Values Survey, the authors conclude that there are significant differences, after controlling for demographic factors, between all three sub-populations in attitudes about IPVAW, with first generation immigrants more supportive of IPVAW than either natives or second generation immigrants. The authors also show that, for the three sub-populations, interactions of attitudes regarding interpersonal violence, gender equality and sexual tolerance are good predictors of attitudes about IPVAW. (From the authors' abstract). Record #5420
