Domestic Violence against immigrant women has substantially increased since last past decade because of the increasing number of immigrant women in Korea. It is known that battered immigrant women have to deal with tremendous difficulties and obstacles to survive from the abusive relationship. The barriers that battered immigrant women should overcome are strongly related to the numerous legal, social, cultural, and economical issues in multi-cultural family. This study aims at exploring the influential factors that affect the domestic violence against Asian immigrant women in Korea. The current study focuses on analyzing the survey data of 600 immigrant women that was collected in 2007 by Hanyang University, Seoul, Korea. The data are drawn from the Korea Social Science Data Archive(KOSSDA). The sample of this study include Japanese(200), Chinese(200), Vietnamese(200) immigrant women who married Korean men. In order to investigate the factors of domestic violence against immigrant women, logistic regression analysis is conducted by including seven factors: nationality, age, marriage motivation, communication skill, support network, social commitment, batterers' employment. The result shows that the prediction model is statistically significant and the model explains approximately 30.6% of the variance of domestic violence against immigrant women. Among seven predictors, nationality, age, communication skill, and batterer's job are statistically significant in affecting the odds of violence against immigrant women. The logistic regression analysis shows that on average, the likelihoods of being battered are 61.3% less higher in Chinese women than Japanese women after controlling other factors. In terms of age, the odds of being abused are 4.8% decreased as one unit of age increases. In addition, the result shows that on average, the odds of being battered are 17.6% decreased as one unit of communication skill increases. Furthermore, the batterer's fields of physical labor, agriculture, and fishery are statistically significant predictors that affect the domestic violence against immigrant women. The result demonstrates that Asian immigrant women who married Korean men have diverse and complex domestic violence-related factors that are shaped by various personal, cultural, and structural environments. Further research is needed to improve the conditions of immigrant women and suggest more effective crime prevention policy for battered immigrant women in Korea.
Abstract
Domestic Violence against immigrant women has substantially increased since last past decade because of the increasing number of immigrant women in Korea. It is known that battered immigrant women have to deal with tremendous difficulties and obstacles to survive from the abusive relationship. The barriers that battered immigrant women should overcome are strongly related to the numerous legal, social, cultural, and economical issues in multi-cultural family. This study aims at exploring the influential factors that affect the domestic violence against Asian immigrant women in Korea. The current study focuses on analyzing the survey data of 600 immigrant women that was collected in 2007 by Hanyang University, Seoul, Korea. The data are drawn from the Korea Social Science Data Archive(KOSSDA). The sample of this study include Japanese(200), Chinese(200), Vietnamese(200) immigrant women who married Korean men. In order to investigate the factors of domestic violence against immigrant women, logistic regression analysis is conducted by including seven factors: nationality, age, marriage motivation, communication skill, support network, social commitment, batterers' employment. The result shows that the prediction model is statistically significant and the model explains approximately 30.6% of the variance of domestic violence against immigrant women. Among seven predictors, nationality, age, communication skill, and batterer's job are statistically significant in affecting the odds of violence against immigrant women. The logistic regression analysis shows that on average, the likelihoods of being battered are 61.3% less higher in Chinese women than Japanese women after controlling other factors. In terms of age, the odds of being abused are 4.8% decreased as one unit of age increases. In addition, the result shows that on average, the odds of being battered are 17.6% decreased as one unit of communication skill increases. Furthermore, the batterer's fields of physical labor, agriculture, and fishery are statistically significant predictors that affect the domestic violence against immigrant women. The result demonstrates that Asian immigrant women who married Korean men have diverse and complex domestic violence-related factors that are shaped by various personal, cultural, and structural environments. Further research is needed to improve the conditions of immigrant women and suggest more effective crime prevention policy for battered immigrant women in Korea.
