MACARINI, Samira Mafioletti  and  MIRANDA, Karla Paris. Psychological intervention and conjugal violence at a women's police station. Pensando fam. [online]. 2018, vol.22, n.1, pp.163-178. ISSN 1679-494X.

The study aimed to characterize conjugal violence denounced at a women's police station. A documentary research was carried out, through the analysis of bulletins of occurrences registered from August 2012 to August 2015 and which were sent to the psychology department of the institution. The results showed a predominance of reports involving women and men in the 30-year age group who were in a stable relationship, which had at least one child in common and, at the time of the registration, were separated from each other. There was a predominance of the psychological and physical violence. The study also found a high rate of relinquishment of the criminal process by women, pointing to the cyclical aspect of marital violence, as well as multiple factors involved in this phenomenon. The data can help in understanding the dynamics of conjugal violence from a systemic perspective, and also looking for coping strategies and prevention.

Keywords : Conjugal violence; Maria da penha law; Marital violence.
