Abstract

The present research consists of evaluating and statistically comparing the number of cases of intrafamily violence in Colombia between the years 2010-2021, based on the reports of the National Police. The database is made up of 896,017 reported cases of violence. Frequency distribution, comparative analysis by the GLM method and Biplot projection were used. Cundinamarca differs statistically with respect to the other regions evaluated, where women present the highest percentage of domestic violence. Factors, such as mobility restrictions, uncertainty, stress, among other components, are at the root of complex family situations.
