As reports indicated about 1 in 3 of women worldwide have experienced physical violence but there is no enough reports on the current status of the act in Aksum town so this study intended to identify the prevalence and factors associated with physical violence of reproductive age married women in Aksum town Tigray Ethiopia.
A total of 398 women were enrolled in the study and making a response rate of 100%. 112 (28.1%) women had physical violence in their lifetime. Educational level of women (AOR = 2.2; 95% CI 1.28, 6.7), Occupation of women's (AOR = 3.8; 95% CI 2.32, 12.8), age of husband (AOR = 5.2; 95% CI 2.3, 11.5), husbands having other wife (AOR = 7.8; 95% CI 4.2, 18.9) and husbands having alcohol habits (AOR = 3.8; 95% CI 1.74, 14.7) had significant association with physical violence.
正如报告所示，全球约三分之一的女性曾遭受身体暴力，但关于阿克苏姆镇该行为的现状尚无足够报道。因此，本研究旨在确定埃塞俄比亚提格雷州阿克苏姆镇育龄已婚女性身体暴力的患病率及相关因素。
共有398名女性参与本研究，应答率为100%。112名（28.1%）女性一生中曾遭受身体暴力。女性的教育程度（比值比[AOR]=2.2；95%置信区间[CI]为1.28至6.7）、职业（AOR=3.8；95%CI为2.32至12.8）、丈夫年龄（AOR=5.2；95%CI为2.3至11.5）、丈夫有其他妻子（AOR=7.8；95%CI为4.2至18.9）以及丈夫有酗酒习惯（AOR=3.8；95%CI为1.74至14.7）与身体暴力有显著关联。
