Topic 4.2 Types of Gender Based Violence

Question 3. Feedback

All forms of violence have a psychological aspect, since the main aim of being violent or abusive is to hurt the integrity and dignity of another person. Apart from this, there are certain forms of violence which take place using methods which cannot be placed in other categories, and which therefore can be said to achieve psychological violence in a ‘pure’ form. This includes isolation or confinement, withholding nformation, disinformation, and threatening behaviour (Counsil Of Europe)
