TY - JOUR PY - 2018// TI - The effect of different forms of violence on women's attitudes toward gender equality and decision-making capacity JO - Affilia A1 - Rodriguez, Jeyle Ortiz A1 - Palencia, Esteban Picazzo A1 - Lagunas, ElĂ­as Alvarado SP - 193 EP - 207 VL - 33 IS - 2 N2 - The purpose of this article is to analyze the effect of different forms of violence on Mexican women's attitudes and decision-making capacity. Specifically, attitudes toward gender equality are included as a mediator between violence and women's decision-making capacity.

RESULTS reveal that attitudes are a partial mediator between physical, sexual, and psychological violence and women's decision-making capacity. While physical, economic, and sexual violence negatively affect women's decision-making capacity, economic violence against women increases their involvement in decision-making.
