To explore the prevalence, type, frequency and causes of domestic marital violence among Turkish women in a socio-economically developed metropolitan setting.
A cross-sectional study was performed in 2003. All married women, aged 18 years and over, who were visiting any of the 50 primary health care units for different purposes were asked to participate in the study. Of 1427 asked, 1010 gave consent and completed face-to-face interviews. Multiple correspondence analysis, and logistic regression were used for statistical analyses.
Domestic violence was statistically significantly associated with educational level. Illiterate women reported marital abuse 2.6 times more than university or more educated women. No statistically significant relationship was observed between domestic marital violence and women's age or occupation, marital duration or family income. The most frequently reported type of violence was physical, followed by psychological. Among women reporting domestic violence, those with the lowest educational level and income were experiencing all types of domestic violence frequently.
Placing more importance on educating girls could be a key component of preventing domestic violence.
在社会经济发达的大都市环境中，探究土耳其女性遭受家庭婚姻暴力的患病率、类型、频率及原因。
2003年开展了一项横断面研究。所有年龄在18岁及以上、因不同目的前往50个初级卫生保健单位就诊的已婚女性均被邀请参与研究。在被询问的1427名女性中，1010名同意并完成了面对面访谈。采用多重对应分析和逻辑回归进行统计分析。
家庭暴力与教育水平在统计学上存在显著关联。文盲女性报告遭受婚姻虐待的次数是大学学历或更高学历女性的2.6倍。未观察到家庭婚姻暴力与女性年龄、职业、婚姻持续时间或家庭收入之间存在统计学上的显著关系。报告最多的暴力类型是身体暴力，其次是心理暴力。在报告遭受家庭暴力的女性中，教育水平和收入最低的女性频繁遭受各类家庭暴力。
更加重视女童教育可能是预防家庭暴力的关键因素。
