Description
INTRODUCTION Domestic violence against women (DVAW), especially beating wives by husbands, has been common in all culture perhaps in all times (1-3). Bangladesh seems to be no exception. Newspaper reports in the country clearly indicate that the prevalence of violence against women is very high (4,5). National data on the general population do not exist. However, small-scale studies support the above conviction (6). As of now, the estimate of the prevalence of physical violence against women by husbands in Bangladesh varies between 30% and 50% (7,8). Despite the seriousness of the problem in terms of violation of human rights and public health consequences (3,9-12), there is a dearth of knowledge on the extent, nature, and the context of DVAW in Bangladesh and other developing countries for various reasons. Of them, methodological difficulties in studying the topic are the important ones.
