Resumo
The phenomenon of violence committed by intimate partners (IPV) is widely debated in
social, philosophical, and health studies, but it is relatively underexplored concerning military
populations, especially the Armed Forces. This project aims to estimate the prevalence of self-
reported IPV among military professionals of the Brazilian Air Force (FAB) stationed in
Manaus, Amazonas, while seeking to correlate factors associated with IPV and propose
coping measures. To achieve this, a cross-sectional study was conducted, and data were
collected through a semi-structured virtual questionnaire administered to a representative
sample of 186 FAB military personnel in Manaus. The sample size was calculated using the
OpenEpi platform, based on an estimated prevalence of 5.7% for men and 6.3% for women as
the outcome. The virtual questionnaire aims to collect information on socio-economic
variables, professional activities, the Family Environment Scale, analysis of IPV using the
Conflict Tactics Scales (CTS2), job satisfaction (Factor III - job disappointment), and
attitudes adopted by respondents when faced with IPV situations. Data analysis occurred in
two stages: firstly, exploratory analysis of variables and determination of IPV prevalence
rates; and secondly, the identification of possible factors related to the occurrence of IPV. The
proportion of each type of violence (sexual coercion, psychological aggression, negotiation,
injury, and physical violence) was calculated, and logistic regression analyses were performed
for raw and adjusted data. The type of violence with the highest proportion was psychological
aggression (75.8%), while sexual coercion had the lowest proportion (2.7%). Military
personnel who were disappointed with their jobs had a higher chance of being involved in
sexual coercion situations (OR=22.37; p-value=0.01). Military personnel whose partner lived
with them (OR=3.50; p-value=0.05) and whose family environment was disorganized
(OR=4.19; p-value<0.01) had a higher chance of being involved in psychological aggression
situations. Military personnel who identified as "pardos" (mixed race) (OR=9.36; p-
value=0.05) and whose family environment was disorganized (OR<1.00; p-value=0.04) had a
higher chance of involvement in partner injuries. Based on the research findings, it was
possible to understand the current reality of intimate and emotional relationships among
military professionals to identify whether their professional roles directly or indirectly affect
these relationships. At the end of the study, a informative report was prepared, containing all
information regarding the findings to encourage positive changes in terms of institutional
interventions, contributing to institutional health, the professional performance of military
personnel, and promoting measures to combat IPV. It was concluded that Intimate Partner
Violence in its various forms is associated with individual and familial factors that can have
significant implications from the perspective of relationships and professional performance.
