dc.description.notesThis article presents the findings from a US public opinion survey to explore beliefs about domestic violence – what it is, when it is unlawful, and its prevalence. It interviewed 1,200 residents from six New York State communities. There are substantial firsthand and secondhand experiences with domestic violence and strong consensus that acts of physical aggression should be called domestic violence, but less certainty about the illegality of abusive behaviours. Multivariate analyses did not support conventional wisdom about the impact of socioeconomic background on tolerance for domestic violence but gender, generation, and secondhand familiarity with domestic violence play a role in opinions and beliefs.en
