ملخص البحث
Objectives: to identify the impact of socio demographic factors on attitude of ever married female toward violence against women in Egypt. Materials and methods:Data from Survey of Young People in Egypt (SYPE), 2014 were used in this study. Attitude towards gender-based violence (GBV) and socio-demographic characteristics of 3,226 ever married females aged 13-35 years were selected for secondary and advanced analysis. Results: Only a small percentage (28.7%) of all ever married female youth rejected gender-based violence. The rejection of GBV was increased with increasing the wealth quintile from the lowest to the richest level (P 0.001). There were no statistical significant differences between respondents who accepted the GBV attitude and those who reject it as regard the employment status (P = 0.442). There was more rejection of GBV with increasing educational level of respondents and their parents from illiterate to university or higher level (P 0.001). Agreement to GBV increased by increasing the number of brothers and sisters (P = 0.021). Conclusion: Sociodemographic characteristics play an important role on the attitude of ever married women towards violence against women. Recommendations: Parents, educational institutions, health care providers (e.g. pre-marital counseling), civil society (mass media), community and religious leaders need to engage in more open dialog with young people to educate them about GBV, enforce positive attitude (multi – sectoral interventions) and support economic and social development.
