N2  - PURPOSE: This study examined the relationship between individuals' attitudes toward violence against women and their perception of gender roles. DESIGN AND METHODS: This descriptive and cross-sectional study design (n = 635) collected data using the ISKEBE Violence against Women Attitude Scale and the Perception of Gender Scale. Data analyses included descriptive statistics, Pearson's correlation analysis, and multiple linear regression analyses. <br><br>RESULTS: About 37.5% of the participants had been exposed to violence. A moderately positive correlation was found between the participants' scores on gender perception and attitude toward violence against women (r = 0.551, p < 0.000). PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS: Women did not approve of violence against women more than men did. Participants with higher education levels and employment had a more negative attitude toward violence against women.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
