Factor: education-difference between spouses

I read an abstract once of a study saying women with higher education married to men with lower education than them had higher risk of being abused. Does anyone happen to have the citation of this? (I know the reverse seems to be the case in Bangladesh[1], so presumably there's some confounding factor here.) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kiwibird (talkcontribs) 08:03, 24 February 2009‎ (UTC)[reply]

Ah, now I found it. Martin (2007)[2] , cites Johnson (2003)[3] as saying that "women with higher education were at greater risk of being physically and sexually assaulted by their partners", although other studies have also shown that unemployed women are at higher risk of marital rape, not sure how to interpret all this. (Martin 2007 seems to be a very good review.)

More problematic editing

Jayx80, I've warned you about this type of editing more than once. And I did so extensively at Talk:Rape. And yet you are still doing it. Do not add in words/terms that are not supported by the sources. How difficult is that for you to do? At this, point, I have no doubt that I will eventually be reporting you at WP:ANI. I reverted your latest add-ins, including that lone study (followup note here). To quote Doc James (at the Miscarriage article, where you also tried to add the study), "Please use secondary sources."

I apologize. I am just going to refrain from editing until I have taken plenty of time to make sure I thoroughly understand Wikipedia's rules/guidelines. I thought I had a good understanding of them but I guess not.

May I just ask you if an edit is appropriate before I make one next time? Jayx80 (talk) 19:03, 29 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Gender differences

Gender differences section states "women use control to gain autonomy in abusive relationships, whereas men use control to assert authority over their partner" however cited source (in Abstract) has text: "Females reported using violence in response to prior abuse, citing revenge and retaliation as a primary motivation. Because treatment approaches are commonly derived from the power and control model, which indicates that violence is used to gain power and control, batterer intervention counseling may not be appropriate for women, who appear more motivated by the desire to maintain personal liberties in a relationship where they have been victimized."

This Wikipedia statement appears misleading as:

  1. It does not mention "revenge and retaliation", only reasons behind this behavior from women's perspective (victimization).
  2. The source (at least Abstract) does not explicitly state that "men use control to assert authority over their partner".
  3. The statement does not mention any reasons behind men's behavior from their perspective (thus comparing reasons of behavior with behavior itself)
