Abstract
This article reports on an empirical investigation of marital rape and wife abuse among seventy-eight women who sought psychosocial intervention for difficulties in their relationships with their male partners. Comparative analyses were conducted between the group of women who had ever been physically, emotionally, or sexually abused by a male partner and the group who had not been so abused in relation to selected social and historical variables. The results showed that a key factor in determining current abusive relationships was the male partner's history of any type of family violence.
