The purpose of the present research is to investigate and identify the effect of demographic, economic, social, and cultural factors in describing family violence.
In other words, in this research an attempt is made to answer the question "Why is violent behavior seen in some families?"
Therefore, the research hypotheses have been based on three theoretical perspectives of social psychology; i.e., the Psychoanalytic approach, the behavioristic approach, and cognitive approach as well as the previous studies in order to describe family violence. The data needed for testing the hypotheses were collected through a questionnaire and probability proportionate to size sampling (PPS) from a sample of 384 persons in Tabriz. The exploratory factor analysis was used to categorize the factors related to family violence, and cronbachs Alpha was used to measure the reliability of the items. In order to test the hypotheses, Pearson's correlation coefficient, T-test, and one-way variance analysis were used.
Finally, to show the social factors affecting family violence, multiple regerssion was used.
The results obtained from the research indicate that family violence has a significant relation with the family type, marriage type, socio-economic status, job status, level of education, age, and religious beliefs.
