Abstract

Introduction: The interpersonal violence (VIP) is a high epidemiological impact event and, due to its serious social, financial and health indicators. Objective: To describe the prevalence and factors associated with self - report of interpersonal violence suffered in the adult population of Ceará in the year 2013. Methods: Sectional study, based on secondary data from the National Health Survey of 2013, being considerad of 2,900 homes interviews and 2,560 individuals of the selected adults in Ceará. In order to estimate the prevalence of VIPs, a variable was created based on questions: In the last 12 months, did you experience any violence or aggression from an unknown person (such as thugs, police, robbers, etc.)? and/ or In the last 12 months, have you experienced any violence or assault by a known person (such as a parent, spouse, spouse, partner, boyfriend, friend, ), neighbor? The bank was standardized through SPSS® version 20, through the survey analisys module. Associations and estimates of the prevalence ratio were calculated excluding the cases in which the violence suffered was cited for both types of aggressors. Results: In the state of Ceará, 6.9% of the respondents report VIPs per person known or unknown, being 3.8% unknown and 3.4% known. The majority of individuals who reported VIP were male (51.0%), less than 30 years old (44.0%), whites (66.4%), without spouses (53.4%) and 65.5%), with a high school education or higher education (65.2%), single job (95.8%), with an average income of R $ 1,103 (p = 124.3). There was a significant association between undergoing violence for unknown and self-rated health (p = 0.008, RCP = 2.544, CI = 1.276-5.073), having incomplete higher secondary education or more (p = 0.030, RCP = 3.151; CI = 1.444- 6.877), residing up to 2 people aged 18 or older (p = 0.024, RCP = 0.385, CI = 0.167-0.889), not having the domicile registered at the UBSF (p = 0.023, RCP = 2.152 CI = 1.111- 4,170), have health insurance (p = 0,021, RCP = 3,138 CI = 1,162- 8,476) and sewage system (p = 0,059, RCP = 2,078, CI = 0,967-4,463). Conclusion: The prevalence of VIPs in Ceará by person unknown is physical, with the use of a firearm, by people who seek robbery or theft. Men, youth and workers, with higher income and education, good health self-assessment, health insurance, housing without access to the general sewage system, large families and no coverage by primary health care are associated with self-reported violence in the adult population. It is necessary to develop effective intersectoral public actions to strengthen and reorganize the Public Security to combat and control of VIP by unknown assailant in the adult population of Ceará.
