Concept information

Preferred term

women and violence  

Definition(s)

  • Although violence against women and violence by women are seemingly disparate topics, they are linked not only by the obvious (gender) but in other ways as well. For example, women are victimized by intimates and friends at a high rate and are also more likely to victimize those with whom they are intimate.
