专门法院与亲密伴侣暴力报案：来自西班牙的证据

中文摘要

本文评估设立亲密伴侣暴力（IPV）专门法院对IPV报案以及西班牙IPV凶杀案发生率的影响。我们发现，在首选设定中，设立IPV专门法院使每10万居民的IPV报案数增加近122起，即增加28%。报案数的上升主要由中等严重程度违法行为报案数的增加所驱动。我们未发现关于专门法院对IPV凶杀案影响的确凿证据。• 亲密伴侣暴力（IPV）的漏报阻碍了反IPV政策发挥成效。• IPV法院使西班牙的IPV报案数增加28%。• 这一效应由中等严重程度IPV违法行为报案数的增加所驱动。• 关于IPV凶杀案，未发现确凿证据。

Abstract

This paper assesses the effect of the creation of specialised intimate partner violence (IPV) courts on the reporting of IPV, and the incidence of IPV homicides in Spain. We find that the opening of a specialised IPV court increases the reporting of IPV by nearly 122 offences per 100,000 inhabitants, or 28% in the preferred specification. The rise in reporting is primarily driven by an increase in the reporting of moderate offences. We do not find conclusive evidence on the effects of specialised courts on IPV homicides. • Underreporting of Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) hampers effectiveness of anti-IPV policies. • IPV courts increase the reporting of IPV in Spain by 28%. • The effect is driven by an increase in the reporting of moderate IPV offences. • No conclusive evidence on IPV homicides.
