N2  - Despite a decade of rising violence in Mexico, it is unclear how victimization is associated with participation in cultural and artistic activities. This study contributes to fulfilling this gap. Two surveys provide data for the analyses, the 2013 Latinobarometer Survey (N = 1200) and the 2012 Self-reported Well-Being Survey (N = 10654). In both datasets, chi-square analyses show an association between some victimization indicators and cultural participation categories. Then, logistic regression analyses indicate that victimization increases the probability of attending several cultural activities. These findings, along with several theoretical propositions, suggest that cultural participation may be a coping mechanism or a strategy toward reintegration to every-day-life of victims. Therefore, results would help to inform social policies and interventions in Mexico regarding the well-being of individuals and society.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
