Background:

  • Couples violence is a complex issue influenced by various individual and societal factors.
  • Understanding these contributing variables is crucial for developing effective prevention and intervention strategies.

Purpose of the Study:

  • Lower socioeconomic status, younger age, unmarried status, history of childhood abuse, excessive alcohol consumption, and attitudes justifying violence were linked to increased couples violence.
  • Women reported higher rates of both perpetration and victimization, though actual violence levels were similar between genders.

Conclusions:

  • Couples violence stems from socialization processes, including abuse and the transmission of violence-justifying values.
  • Reducing couples violence requires addressing power imbalances, modifying attitudes, enhancing conflict-resolution skills, and mitigating stress.
