Abstract
Background: Domestic violence causes the family institution to turn into a tense, stressful, cold and soulless environment. The current study was handled to the aim of predicting domestic violence according to cognitive emotion regulation (CER) and early maladaptive schemas (EMS) in couples.
Methods: The present study was a descriptive correlational Research, which was carried out on couples with domestic violence problems referring to counseling centers in Tehran, 2021. The number of 400 people was selected as samples through convenience sampling among those who were referred to counseling centers. The research tools included the questionnaire of Haj-Yahia violence against women, Garfenski et al.'s cognitive regulation of emotion, and Young's early maladaptive schemas. Data analysis was done using SPSS 21 software, Pearson's correlation coefficient and analysis of regression.
Results: The findings revealed that domestic violence has a significant and inverse correlation with CER, and a direct and significant correlation with EMSs (P < 0.001). Domestic violence was predictable based on CER (B = -0.411, P = 0.001) and EMSs (B =0.372, P = 0.001).
Conclusion: According to the results, CER and EMSs were able to reduce and increase domestic violence in couples, respectively. It is suggested to pay attention to the CER and EMSs of couples and supply the required teaching in this regard.
