Abstract :
Background: The aim of this study was to investigate the modelling of different processes that could account for the link between psychopathology, cognitive social and demographic risk factors and enacting assault by husband. Method: This article reports a test using data on 230 males who participated in a family violence survey study. The sample was selected by a multiclustral sampling method from 4 different randomized regions of Tehran. All participants completed Conflict Tactic Scales, Personal and Relationship Profile, Marital Attitude Survey Questionnaire, Symptoms Checklist Inventory, Social and Demographic Measure. Logistics regression was used to estimate spouse abuse model for men. Results: The findings were consistent with the theoretical model. The path from social- demographic, cognitive and psychopathological risk factors to enacting spouse abuse was demonstrated. Conclusion: The implications of the findings for understanding spouse assaults, cognitive, psychopathological, social and demographic differences in male population are discussed.
