    Etiony Aldarondo, Glenda Kaufman Kantor et al.ARTICLEViolence Against Women2002Cited by: 1

  • Sociodemographic Predictors and Cultural Barriers to Help-Seeking Behavior by Latina and Anglo American Battered Women

    Carolyn M West, Glenda Kaufman Kantor et al.ARTICLEViolence and Victims1998

    Data from a national survey were used to investigate the help-seeking efforts of Latinas (Mexican, Mexican American, Puerto Rican) and Anglo American women who experienced battering by intimate partners. The findings revealed that battered Latinas were significantly younger, less educated, and more impoverished than Anglo women. Additionally, Latinas more often categorized their marriages as male dominated and their husbands as heavy drinkers. Bi…

  • Sociocultural Status and Incidence of Marital Violence in Hispanic Families

    Glenda Kaufman Kantor, Jana L Jasinski et al.ARTICLEViolence and Victims1994

    It is not clear whether traditional cultural ideology influences wife assaults in Hispanic-American families, or if culture is confounded with the stresses of poverty, unemployment, and immigration status. Our 1992 study of 1,970 families, including a national oversample of Hispanic families, examines the incidence of marital violence in the three major Hispanic-American subgroups and in Anglo-American families, and considers how sociocultural st…

  • The 'Drunken Bum' Theory of Wife Beating

    Glenda Kaufman Kantor, M A Straus et al.ARTICLESocial Problems1987Cited by: 22References: 35

    We examine the belief that physical abuse of wives is strongly determined by drunkenness and socioeconomic status using interview data from a nationally representative sample of 5,159 families. Our findings show that excessive drinking is associated with higher wife abuse rates, but alcohol use is not an immediate antecedent ofviolence in the majority of families. The combination of blue-collar status, drinking, and approval of violence is signif…
