TY - JOUR PY - 2024// TI - Men's economic abuse toward women in Sweden: findings from a national survey JO - Violence against women A1 - Bruno, Linnéa A1 - Strid, Sofia A1 - Ekbrand, Hans SP - ePub EP - ePub VL - ePub IS - ePub N2 - Drawing from a nationally representative survey (n = 6,611), this article analyses the prevalence of men's economic abuse toward women in Sweden. Economic abuse is still a relatively marginalized area of research but is increasingly recognized as a distinct type of intimate partner violence. A few Swedish studies have specifically focused on economic abuse, yet none of which with a quantitative approach. A main finding is that motherhood significantly increases the risk of exposure. Furthermore, women report economic abuse from expartners (25%) to a much greater extent than from current partners (8%).
