The present research was intended to study the psychological violence against women based on structural and cultural theories, including the theory of sources and subculture of violence. The ultimate goal was to understand the role of these theories in psychological violence against women. The research was a field study. Survey questionnaires and interviews were implemented to collect data. The statistical population consisted of all Shirazi married women with one year prolonged marriage. 400 women were randomly selected through multi-stage cluster sampling. The obtained results showed that religiosity, economic income, education and socio-economic status were negatively and significantly correlated with psychological violence and observing the relatives intervention was positively and significantly associated to the psychological violence.
