Abstract

This study’s main objective was to determine the factors that led to Turkish women being physically abused by their husbands or partners during pregnancy. The National Research on Domestic Violence against Women in Turkey conducted in 2014 was utilized in our study. We analyzed the survey data using the binary logistic regression method. A pregnant woman who graduated from high school was less likely to encounter physical abuse than an illiterate woman. Those who made more money for the family than their husband or partner were more likely to experience physical abuse. Pregnant women with alcoholic husbands/partners were more likely to experience physical abuse. By supporting the prevention of other potential outcomes for maternal and infant health, implementing screening for partner violence and childbirth phobia in obstetrics and gynecology clinics, and offering comprehensive information about pregnancy labour, we can enhance family and social health.
