Abstract

Obitelj je ta koja bi starijim osobama trebala pružiti sigurnost, dostojnu skrb i ljubav, no često se događa da su upravo članovi obitelji ti koji loše postupaju prema svojim starijim članovima obitelji. U ovom radu predstavit će se pojavni oblici nasilja koje starije osobe mogu doživjeti od članova svoje obitelji, kao i teorijska objašnjenja nasilja nad starijim osobama. Cilj ovog rada je kroz pregled stranih i domaćih istraživanja prikazati koliko često starije osobe zapravo doživljavaju nasilje u obitelji, a također i koje oblike nasilja doživljavaju češće, a koje rjeđe. Istraživanja su pokazala da postoje karakteristike starijih osoba koje ih čine ranjivijima na nasilje od strane obitelji. Također, u radu su prikazane i karakteristike počinitelja. Pregledom istraživanja dobit će se i odgovor na pitanje zašto starije osobe ne prijavljuju nasilje koje doživljavaju. Kada se govori o temi nasilja, bitna je prevencija, a posebno to kakvu ulogu ima profesija socijalnog rada u tome.

Abstract (english)

It is the family that should provide security, decent care and love to the elderly, but it is often the case that family members are the ones who treat their elderly members badly. This paper will present the manifestations of violence that older people may experience from their family members, as well as theoretical explanations of violence against the elderly. The aim of this paper is to show how often older people actually experience domestic violence by reviewing foreign and domestic research and also which forms of violence they experience more and which less often. Studies have shown that there are characteristics of elderly people that make them more vulnerable to violence by relatives. Furthermore, the paper presents the characteristics of perpetrators. A review of research will also provide an answer to the question why elderly do not report the violence they experience. When it comes to the topic of violence, prevention is important, and especially the role of the social work profession in it.
