親戚麥計較？台中市四等內家庭暴力樣態

Changing Kinship –Analyzing Non-IPV Domestic Violencein Taichung City

本研究旨於探討台中市四親等內旁系血親、旁系姻親之家庭暴力現象，以個案資料內容分析為主，輔以社工人員焦點團體訪談，主要分析其暴力態樣、受暴頻率、兩造關係、人口特徵、受暴及發生原因等面向。研究發現，此類案件呈現嚴重程度低、頻率低、求助意願低等現象；兩造關係以兄弟姊妹為多數，暴力衝突原因多元，但大致以長輩照顧、財產紛爭、生活磨擦等議題佔多數，且衝突原因多乘載了家族內長期的情緒與資源衝突。本研究分析之個案資料，多以警政通報系統、社工隨後介入為主，但實務上求助者對問題解決的期待與受助意願偏低。此類被害人為男性之比例明顯偏高；外籍配偶面臨的四親等內家暴議題則有其特定脈絡。
