Contenido principal del artículo

Resumen

La percepción de gravedad que tiene la sociedad especialmente la policía, sobre la violencia que ejercen los hombres contra sus parejas mujeres, es fundamental no sólo para prevenir este delito, sino que para otorgar una adecuada protección después de la agresión. Se evaluó actitudes, tipo de involucramiento, sexismo y empatía, comparando a la policía chilena (Carabineros especialistas y operativos) con personas de población general, a través de una muestra de 1033 participantes de todo el país. Los Carabineros operativos presentaron mayor involucramiento incondicional, más empatía y mayor percepción de gravedad que los chilenos de población general ante la violencia ejercida contra la mujer. Los Carabineros que atienden víctimas se involucran más, son más empáticos y tienen menos sexismo, aun así, se requiere capacitación más frecuente y de mejor calidad, además de seleccionar a los más empáticos para atender víctimas. Destaca la influencia del género y la edad.
