| description | The coronavirus pandemic pose tremendous challenge for all countries of the
world. People who experience domestic violence deserve special attention in
such social circumstances. The purpose of this paper is to present research
on students‘ attitudes about domestic violence in pandemic conditions. In a
sample of 334 students from Croatia we analyzed their acceptance of myths
about domestic violence, attitudes about domestic violence in pandemic
conditions, and the correlation between the acceptance of myths and
attitudes about domestic violence. The results indicate the following:
students accept myths about domestic violence at the lesser level, they
believe that measures to combat coronavirus have led to an increase in all
analyzed forms of domestic violence, they do not think that the policingin
those cases is well or that victims receive sufficient help and support in
pandemics. Differences in students‘ attitudes towards gender and knowledge
of the victim were found, as well as the correlation between attitudes and
basic political orientation. The correlations between students‘ attitudes
and acceptance of myths about domestic violence were also established. |
