Abstract [sv]

Bakgrund: I Sverige bevittnar uppskattningsvis var tionde barn partnervåld, vilket kan leda till allvarliga konsekvenser för barnet. Skola och socialtjänst har en viktig roll i att identifiera och stödja dessa barn. Trots detta brister verksamheter i att identifiera barn som bevittnat partnervåld. Syfte: Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka hur studenter kan komma att agera i framtida yrkesliv vid kontakt med ett barn som bevittnat partnervåld. Metod: Totalt 202 studenter från ett medelstort svenskt universitet, lärarstudenter (n = 93) och socionomstudenter (n = 109), besvarade en enkät innehållande en vinjett. Vinjetten utformades i två versioner, vilket beskrev en partnervåldssituation med skillnaden att det i ena vinjetten beskrevs att ett barn bevittnat våldet. Studenterna fick därefter skatta den uppfattade allvarlighetsgraden utifrån Opinion of domestic violence scale. Ett parametriskt test användes för att undersöka skillnader i uppfattad allvarlighetsgrad samt sannolikheten att ringa polisen. Resultat: Resultatet visade att studenterna uppfattade vinjetterna som lika allvarliga samt att de sannolikt skulle ringa polisen oberoende av om ett barn bevittnat eller inte. Vidare påverkades resultatet inte av studenternas utbildningsprogram. Diskussion: Resultatet diskuterades utifrån tidigare forskning och teori vilket visade på behovet av ytterligare forskning samt möjligheter till att förbygga barns bevittnande av partnervåld genom samverkan

Abstract [en]

Background: In Sweden, approximately every tenth child witnesses partner violence, which can have serious consequences for the child. School and social services have an important role in identifying and supporting these children. Despite this, these professionals are failing to identify children who witnessed partner violence. Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate how students may act in contact with children who witnessed partner violence, in future professions. Method: Totally 202 students from a medium-sized Swedish university, teacher students (n = 93) and social work students (n = 109) answered a questionnaire containing a vignette. The vignette was designed in two versions, which described a partner violence situation, with the difference that one vignette described that a child witnessed violence. The students then assessed the perceived severity based on Opinion of domestic violence scale. A parametric test was used to investigate differences in perceived severity and the probability of calling the police. Result: The results showed that the students perceived the vignettes as equally serious and that they would probably call the police regardless of whether a child witnessed or not. Furthermore, the results were not affected by the students' education programs. Discussion: The result was discussed based on of previous research and theory, which showed the need for further research and opportunities to work preventive through collaboration against child witnessing partner violence
