Abstract:
This study examines the determinants of attitudes toward intimate partner violence (IPV) in Thailand. Estimations from binary probit model indicate that Muslim, poverty, and residence in southern/central regions correlate with higher IPV tolerance for both genders. Wealthier women show less tolerance in some situations, while wealthier men show more, particularly related to housework neglect. Access to technology presents mixed results: computer/tablet/mobile phone ownership correlates with increased IPV tolerance in some scenarios, while internet access significantly reduces it. These findings suggest leveraging technology, especially internet access, to combat IPV by improving access to support, raising awareness, and promoting peaceful conflict resolution.
