Abstract:

This study aimed to estimate the age-period effect (APC) and birth cohort on female homicides. This an ecological study, which analyzed the death records by aggression in women aged 10 years and older, in the Brazilian geographic regions between 1980 and 2014. Data on mortality were extractedthe Mortality Information System. The trend analysis was conducted using negative binomial regression and the APC effects were analyzed using estimable functions. The average mortality rate for the period was 5.13 deaths per 100,000 women, with the highest rates observed in the Central-West (7.98 deaths), Southeast (4.78 deaths), North (4.77 deaths), Northeast (4.05 deaths) and South (3.82 deaths) regions. All regions presented a decrease of the risk of death in the period2010 to 2014, except for the Northeast region (RR = 1.06, 95% CI 1.02 to 1.10). There was a progressive increase in the homicide risk for women born1955 to 1959, in all Brazilian regions. Younger women are at higher risk of dyinghomicides in all Brazilian geographic regions. The upward trend of homicide mortality rates according to the birth cohort was expressive, and the highest risk was observed in women born between 2000 and 2004.
