Resource theory constitutes important explanations of spousal violence in culturally diverse societies. This article extends the theory by adding several subjective indicators: husband's financial strain and the couple's appraisal of each other's financial and nonfinancial contributions to family. We examined the role of these subjective dimensions of resource in spousal violence against the backdrop of other predictors, including the husband's absolute socioeconomic resources, the wife's economic dependence, and relative resource differences between the husband and wife. The findings not only partly support absolute and relative resource theories but also suggest the salient role of subjective indicators of resources on husband-to-wife physical assault.
资源理论为文化多元社会中的配偶暴力提供了重要解释。本文通过增加几个主观指标对该理论进行了扩展：丈夫的经济压力以及夫妻双方对彼此对家庭的经济和非经济贡献的评价。我们在包括丈夫的绝对社会经济资源、妻子的经济依赖以及夫妻之间的相对资源差异等其他预测因素的背景下，研究了这些资源主观维度在配偶暴力中的作用。研究结果不仅部分支持了绝对资源理论和相对资源理论，还表明了资源主观指标在丈夫对妻子身体攻击方面的显著作用。
