Emotional Abuse Questionnaire (EAQ; Gottman & Gottman, 2009) was used. Results: 2 x 2 ANOVA revealed significant main effect of gender (F (1, 592) = 22.10, p < 0.01), and non-significant main effect of age. Mean scores on gender revealed that females (M = 251.23) were higher than males (M =241.86) on perceived intimate partner emotional abuse.
