Resumen

En este artículo se analizan los factores que están más vinculados a la permanencia de las víctimas en convivencia con el agresor (características de las víctimas y de la pareja agresora, junto con otras variables contextuales). Por otra parte, se describen brevemente las principales teorías explicativas referidas a este fenómeno: teorías centradas en el proceso de toma de decisiones, teorías referidas a la dependencia emocional de las víctimas, y teorías basadas en el estado emocional y las repercusiones psicopatológicas del maltrato. Finalmente, se alude a la importancia de respetar las decisiones de las víctimas con objeto de prevenir la victimización secundaria.
