QUESTIONNAIRE


What do people - men and women - think about a violent behaviour in intimate
relationships? Is it useful to have programmes for men who have used violence
in our country? If you fill up this questionnaire, you will help us to gather
important information for the development of the project. If you answer
the questions, you will help us to understand what you think about violence
perpetrated by a partner or ex partner, if you have ever been involved in a
similar situation and if you feel necessary to have a service or a
specific project to help men who use violence. All answers that
you give in this questionnaire are entirely confidential and anonymous.
Once the project is over, the results of the questionnaire will
be available on this site.
