Abstract:

The objective of the study was to analyze the factors associated with the recurrence of interpersonal violence against children and adolescents in Mato Grosso. Study with cases registered in the Notifiable Diseases Information System2013 to 2019. The association between variables was estimated by logistic regression, stratified by age group (children and adolescents). The frequency of recurrent violence in children was 49.0% and 42.9% in adolescents. For both, recurrent violence was positively associated with occurrence at home, psychological/moral violence, with more than two aggressors involved, family aggressors and means of aggression, threat. For children, neglect/abandonment, gender of the male aggressor, or both were positively associated with recurrence of violence. For adolescents, low education, sexual violence, intimate partner aggressor was positively associated with recurrence of violence, while other aggressors and firearms or body force were negatively associated. The results make relevant contributions to the knowledge of factors associated with recurrent violence, which is still little studied in Brazilian and international literature, and is essential to support strategies to reduce the recurrence of violence and protect children and adolescents.
