Como marco de comparación se usó la información correspondiente de mujeres más jóvenes. La fuente de la información empleada es la Encuesta Nacional sobre la Dinámica de las Relaciones en los Hogares 2016 (ENDIREH) llevada a cabo por el Instituto Nacional de Estadística y Geografía. Los resultados muestran que únicamente el 4% de las adultas mayores recurrieron a por lo menos una fuente de apoyo formal ante abusos recientes. Ese porcentaje fue menor al observado en mujeres victimizadas de edades más jóvenes. Las principales razones para evitar denunciar los abusos y solicitar apoyo formal fueron el considerar los eventos de agresión como cosas sin importancia, el miedo a las consecuencias, la vergüenza y el desconocimiento del proceso de queja. El porcentaje de mención de esas razones también fue diferente en las adultas mayores. Se discuten las implicaciones teóricas y prácticas de los resultados encontrados.

Abstract The goal of this research was to explore the rates of help-seeking for intimate partner violence and barriers for help-seeking among a representative sample of elderly Mexican women with recent experience of abuse (n = 7566). Information of younger women served as a basis of comparison and were contrasted with data from elderly female participants. The source of the information used was the National Survey on Household Relationships Dynamics 2016 (ENDIREH), which was carried out by the National Institute of Statistics and Geography. The results show that only 4% of elder women sought formal support for recent abuse. That percentage was lower than that of victimized younger women. The main reasons to avoid reporting abuse and requesting formal support were to consider aggression as something unimportant, fear of consequences, shame and ignorance of help-seeking process. The percentage of these reasons was also significantly different in older women. The theoretical and practical implications of the results are discussed.

Durante la investigación, 164 estudiantes universitarios hombres proporcionaron sus experiencias de perpetración de violencia hacia su pareja, así como las experiencias de violencia de sus padres hacia sus parejas, mediante la Escala de Tácticas de conflicto entre padres (CTS-between parents) y en relaciones de pareja (CTS2-versión breve). Los resultados indican una disminución en la agresión psicológica y la violencia física de los hijos contra sus parejas, en comparación con la violencia ejercida por sus padres hacia sus parejas. Este hallazgo sugiere que enfrentamos nuevas formas de masculinidad, con diferencias estadísticas importantes, entre la generación X (padres) y la de los millennials (hijos), a la luz de los avances tecnológicos, el acceso a la información y la conciencia social acerca de los derechos humanos y de la mujer.

This article describes a study of the differences in the behavior of parents and children regarding the use of violence in their relationships. During the investigation, 164 male university students provided their experiences of perpetrating violence towards their partner, as well as the experiences of violence of their parents towards their partners, using the Conflict Tactics Scale between parents (CTS-between parents) and in couple relationships (CTS2-brief version). The results indicate a decrease in the psychological aggression and physical violence of the children against their partners, compared to the violence exerted by their parents towards their partners. This finding suggests that we face new forms of masculinity, with important statistical differences, between generation X (parents) and those of millennials (children), in the light of technological advances, access to information and social awareness about human and women's rights.

A total of 437 male and female heterosexual participants residing in Ciudad Juárez, Mexico, provided information on their perpetration/victimization experiences of controlling behavior (by means of the Controlling Behaviors Scale) and physical violence (using the Revised Conflict Tactics Scales [CTS2]) and their attitudes toward social limits (using the Attitudes Toward Social Limits scale). Results indicate similar chronicity levels of experienced controlling behavior and physical violence perpetration/victimization between the sexes. Participants expressed major tendency to adjust to a social norm rather than overstepping it. Males tend to overstep social limits more often than females, although no significant linear relationship was found between abusive behavior and attitudes promoting the infringement of social norms. Higher chronicity levels were rather found by dyadic type, relationships with mutual physical intimate partner violence (IPV), and controlling behavior in comparison with relationships where unidirectional violence prevails. Implications of findings involve the acknowledgment of change in dynamics used by more educated young Mexicans, and the recognition of IPV in these populations as a heterogeneous phenomenon for primary and secondary interventions.
