Family violence-against spouses, children, and other relatives-is a serious national problem. Each year hundreds of thousands of wives are abused by their husbands; more than a million children suffer from various forms of physical, sexual, and emotional maltreatment.

Despite its severity, little is known about this tragedy. The ability to prevent or treat such behavior is rudimentary at best. Research on the incidence and etiology of family violence and on effective means of intervention are indispensable to protect its victims.
