We use data for 28 European countries from the 2012 European survey on violence against women, and focus on first and second generation immigrant women. We find that, after controlling for country of residence fixed effects, as well as demographic characteristics and other source-country variables, higher gender equality in the country of ancestry is significantly associated with a lower risk of victimization in the host country. This suggests that gender norms may play an important role in explaining the incidence of intimate partner violence.application/pdfengL'accés als continguts d'aquest document queda condicionat a l'acceptació de les condicions d'ús establertes per la següent llicència Creative CommonsGender norms and intimate partner violenceinfo:eu-repo/semantics/workingPaperdomestic violencegendersocial normsimmigrantsepidemiological approachLabour, Public, Development and Health Economicsinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
