Abstract:

This study aims to analyze the intimate partner violencethe gender symmetry concepts and asymmetry. Were ed for analysis 79 publications, with a predominance between the years 2006 to 2014 (78.5%). The areas of magazines that addressed the subject was psychology (32.9%) followed by health (27.9%) and nursing (27.6%). Researchers, 46.8% work with the discourse of feminist theoretical line, whose gender approach is considered asymmetrical, produce mostly qualitative research with a sample of women only (81.1%) and 78.3% collected datasupport services to victims of violence. When we look at the characteristics of the studies conducted by researchersthe theoretical line of family sociologists who defend the symmetry of genres (25.3%), we observed that the qualitative and quantitative approaches were used in similar proportions. Bidirectional violence was identified in 80% of this research. We note that in both theoretical lines the choice of method, place of study and research subjects can influence the results obtained. We stress the importance of the discussion of the data with different theoretical frameworks, as the isolated analysis, whatever the area, runs the risk of being biased and thus weaken the results.
