This study aimed to examine the relationship between attitudes toward love, attachment styles, and personality traits in women who have experienced domestic violence (DV).
The study consisted of 64 women who experienced DV and 64 women without such history. All participants completed a sociodemographic data form and three assessment scales.
Among women who were exposed to violence, attitudes toward altruistic and passionate love were significantly higher ( < 0.001, = 0.026). In contrast, women who had not experienced violence showed higher levels of friendly and possessive love attitudes ( = 0.010, < 0.001). Women who experienced violence also exhibited a significant increase in both anxious and avoidant attachment styles ( < 0.001 and < 0.001), while the emotionally balanced personality trait was significantly lower ( = 0.006). Additionally, positive correlations were found between altruistic love and anxious attachment style and between logical love and anxious attachment style ( = 0.021, r = 0.288; = 0.033, r = 0.267, respectively). Conversely, negative correlations were observed between altruistic love attitudes and both extraversion and emotional stability ( = 0.038, r = -0.261; = 0.030, r = -0.271, respectively), between game-playing love attitude and conscientiousness and emotional stability ( = 0.046, r = -0.250; = 0.027, r = -0.277, respectively), and between passionate love attitude and emotional stability ( = 0.009, r = -0.323). Furthermore, a positive correlation was noted between friendly love attitudes and agreeableness ( = 0.017, r = 0.296).
Individuals with high levels of emotional stability, along with friendly and possessive love attitudes, may be better equipped to cope with violence, while those with anxious and avoidant attachment styles, as well as altruistic and passionate love attitudes, may have difficulty handling such experiences.
本研究旨在探讨遭受过家庭暴力（DV）的女性在爱情态度、依恋风格和人格特质之间的关系。
该研究包括64名遭受过家庭暴力的女性和64名无此类经历的女性。所有参与者均填写了一份社会人口统计学数据表格并完成了三项评估量表。
在遭受暴力的女性中，对利他主义爱情和激情之爱的态度显著更高（<0.001，=0.026）。相比之下，未经历过暴力的女性在友好之爱和占有之爱的态度上得分更高（=0.010，<0.001）。遭受暴力的女性在焦虑型和回避型依恋风格上也显著增加（<0.001和<0.001），而情绪平衡的人格特质则显著更低（=0.006）。此外，利他主义爱情与焦虑型依恋风格之间以及逻辑之爱与焦虑型依恋风格之间存在正相关（分别为=0.021，r = 0.288；=0.033，r = 0.267）。相反，利他主义爱情态度与外向性和情绪稳定性之间均观察到负相关（分别为=0.038，r = -0.261；=0.030，r = -0.271），游戏之爱态度与尽责性和情绪稳定性之间存在负相关（分别为=0.046，r = -0.250；=0.027，r = -0.277），激情之爱态度与情绪稳定性之间存在负相关（=0.009，r = -0.323）。此外，友好之爱态度与宜人性之间存在正相关（=0.017，r = 0.296）。
情绪稳定性高且具有友好和占有之爱态度的个体可能更有能力应对暴力，而具有焦虑型和回避型依恋风格以及利他主义和激情之爱态度的个体可能难以应对此类经历。
