Las/os niñas/os que han estado expuestas/os a violencia en la pareja y,también, han sufrido castigo físico por parte de sus padres/madres presentaron mayoresproblemas interiorizados. El castigo físico contra las/os niñas/os, los problemas de salud mentalmaterna -malestar psicológico general y síntomas depresivos-, y la exposición de las/os niñas/osa eventos vitales estresantes mediaron la relación entre la historia materna de violencia y losproblemas psicopatológicos de sus hijas/os.

Fortalecer los esfuerzos en la prevención de la violencia aparece como prioritario paramejorar la salud mental de las madres y sus hijas/os.

Violence against women constitutes a violation of human rights, a serious social andhealth problem that affects not only women's mental health, but also their own children's well-being. Aim: to study the association between mothers' history of violence and their offspring'smental health problems; and to extend the knowledge on the role of individual, family andcontextual factors in this association. Method: participants were children and adolescents, andtheir parents, who accessed to mental health services. Diagnostic interviews and otherinstruments were used to assess children's functioning and psychopathology, individual,familiar and contextual variables. Statistical analyses were carried out through hierarchicalmultiple, negative-binomial and logistic regressions, as well as Structural Equation Models.Results: Girls and boys, whose mothers experienced childhood abuse, intimate partner violenceor both violent experiences, regardless their age, showed serious conduct problems. Offspringwho were exposed to intimate partner violence and also suffered physical punishment byparents showed higher internalizing problems. Physical punishment against children, mothers'mental health problems -global psychological distress and depressive symptoms-, and children'sexposure to negative life events mediated the relationship between mothers' history of violenceand their offspring's psychopathology. Conclusions: Current findings point out potential targetsof assessment and intervention for families seeking help in mental health services.Strengthening our efforts to prevent violence appears as a priority for improving both mothers'and their offspring's mental health.
