Relationship Formation

What do you think is the single most influential factor in determining with whom you become friends and whom you form romantic relationships? You might be surprised to learn that the answer is simple: the people with whom you have the most contact. This most important factor is proximity. You are more likely to be friends with people you have regular contact with. For example, there are decades of research that shows that you are more likely to become friends with people who live in your dorm,...

Fundamental Attribution Error

According to some social psychologists, people tend to overemphasize internal factors as explanations—or attributions—for the behavior of other people. They tend to assume that the behavior of another person is a trait of that person, and to underestimate the power of the situation on the behavior of others. They tend to fail to recognize when the behavior of another is due to situational variables, and thus to the person’s state. This erroneous assumption is...

Surveys

Often, psychologists develop surveys as a means of gathering data. Surveys are lists of questions to be answered by research participants, and can be delivered as paper-and-pencil questionnaires, administered electronically, or conducted verbally. Generally, the survey itself can be completed in a short time, and the ease of administering a survey makes it easy to collect data from a large number of people.

Bystander Effect

The discussion of bullying highlights the problem of witnesses not intervening to help a victim. This is a common occurrence, as the following well-publicized event demonstrates. In 1964, in Queens, New York, a 19-year-old woman named Kitty Genovese was attacked by a person with a knife near the back entrance to her apartment building and again in the hallway inside her apartment building. When the attack occurred, she screamed for help numerous times and eventually died from her stab wounds.

Household food insecurity (HFI) is linked to accepting intimate partner violence against women (IPVAW). Findings show severe HFI increases acceptance, with gender-specific variations, highlighting public health concerns.

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Sociology
  • Gender Studies

Background:

  • Household food insecurity (HFI) is a known risk factor for intimate partner violence against women (IPVAW).
  • Limited research exists on the impact of HFI on attitudes accepting of IPVAW.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To examine if individuals experiencing HFI are more likely to accept physical IPVAW.
  • To determine if this association varies by gender.
  • To assess if the association persists after adjusting for confounders.

Main Methods:

  • Population-level cross-sectional analysis using data from Nigeria's Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey (MICS) Round 6.
  • Included 23,200 women and 7,087 men (aged 15-49) currently married or in union.
  • Weighted multivariable logistic regression analyzed associations between HFI and attitudinal acceptance of physical IPVAW.

Main Results:

  • Severe HFI was positively associated with accepting physical IPVAW (aOR=1.11).
  • Higher odds of acceptance were observed when HFI was severe and the wife neglected children (aOR=1.15).
  • Moderate HFI was associated with lower acceptance when the wife burned food (aOR=0.86 for women). Gender heterogeneity was noted.

Conclusions:

  • HFI severity is associated with attitudinal acceptance of physical IPVAW.
  • The association varies by gender, indicating potential differences in vulnerability and societal norms.
  • Findings underscore the public health implications of food insecurity on gender-based violence acceptance.
