Abstract

Con información de la encuesta CEDE 2003, realizada a 2295 mujeres en Bogotá, Barranquilla y Barrancabermeja, se estudió los mecanismos de reproducción de la violencia intrafamiliar, en particular, el maltrato físico severo contra las mujeres, de una generación a otra. Mediante modelos probit, se calcularon los determinantes de que una mujer sea agredida físicamente por su companero dado que él creció en una familia violenta y no violenta, y los factores que determinan que una mujer se divorcie de su companero violento dado que ella creció en una familia violenta y no violenta. Los resultados muestran como la violencia intrafamiliar se transmite de generación en generación por aprendizaje - experiencias vividas en la familia de origen; sin embargo, existen mecanismos que rompen el ciclo de violencia y disminuyen la proporción de familias que reproducen las conductas agresivas en la siguiente generación. Siguiendo la metodología propuesta por Pollak (2002), el divorcio es el mecanismo que más reduce el nivel de violencia, pasando de tener el 32.4% de las familias violentas, al 15.7% en el largo plazo, esto sumado al supuesto que las parejas se unen de manera ordenada, el nivel disminuye al 14.8%. Mediante ejercicios de simulación se observó que aumentos en el nivel educativo de las mujeres, mayores oportunidades de empleo y mayor acceso a servicios de salud, disminuyen la fracción de familias violentas en el largo plazo. También fueron analizadas otras variables de decisión de la familia.
