Examining The Effects Of Abusive relationship in Body Self-image

Abstract This research investigates the connection between body self-image and abusive behavior in married individuals. Marriage, being a major social institution, is usually prone to conflicts, which, in certain instances, take the form of abusive behaviors—physical, emotional, financial, or sexual. Body self-image, including people's thoughts and emotions regarding their body, is important in emotional health and relationship functioning. Employing a quantitative, correlational research design, 300 married participants were surveyed using the Body Self-Image Questionnaire-Short Form (BSIQ-SF) and the Abusive Behavior from Spouse Inventory. Statistical analysis was performed using Pearson correlation coefficient to evaluate relationships among variables and t-test to evaluate differences by gender. Findings indicate a strong relationship between body self-image and abusive behavior among married individuals, but no correlation when examined separately for men and women. Also, no differences based on gender were found in levels of body self-image or abusive behavior. These findings highlight the intricate interconnection between self-perception and relational abuse, pointing to the importance of interventions focusing on body image issues within abusive relationships. Later research should take further psychological and socio-cultural determinants of this relationship into account.
