ABSTRACT
The present study was
transversal, exploratory, descriptive, and correlational in order to determine
factors related to the migration of the subjects, such as levels of domestic
violence, substance consumption, and sociodemographic factors before their
transfer, as well as violence during their trip. The total sample was composed
of 266 migrants, accommodated in two Mexican shelters. Four scales were used to
evaluate sociodemographic factors, domestic violence, substance abuse (drugs
and alcohol), and violence during the migratory path. For
the factors of domestic violence, violence during migratory path, and substance
abuse, Likert type scales were used. According to these results, the hypotheses
can be verified, inferring that the factors of domestic violence, lack of money
or insecurity in the country of the migrant’s origin have as consequence the
transfer to other countries. It was also verified that subjects that migrate
suffer of some kind of violence.
KEYWORDS
