Battered women: A study of women who live with violent alcohol-abusing men.

Abstract
This study of women who have repeatedly experienced violence in relationships with alcoholic husbands identifies three distinct types of family of origin. It is suggested that the women carry the conditions of their early family situation into the marriage, and that clinicians' awareness of the background typology may help the women to understand and alter their behavior.
