Abstract
Studies on family violence have analyzed the phenomenon from psychological, social, and cultural perspectives. A review of the literature shows that the available evidence is not contradictory, leading to the conclusion that a comprehensive theory of violence at home must take into account factors at these several levels, placing individual functioning within the social group and within the culture norms by which the group operates. A theory of violence at home, and suggestions for further research, are offered.
