The investigation showed that 44.6% of total households experienced at least one of the
above types of violence during the previous year violence from their spouses, and 15.7% of them
experienced physical violence during the same period. This means that one out of six married
households in the country experience physical violence between husband and wife. The
investigation results by age showed that husband-to-wife violence was mostly shown in males in
their 30s and 40s, but it was not greatly different by education levels, income levels, or type of
occupation.
