A Study on the psychology of battered Women

&nbsp;&nbsp;This paper has several purposes. First, I investigate the psychological characteristics of battered women, and in so doing offer analysis of reasons that they don&quot;t escape from offender. second, I discuss What they need and suggest thereby prevention policy of domestic violence.<BR>&nbsp;&nbsp;Generally, the myths and misconception that often end up being harmful to battered women charged with crimes have to do with 1) a belief that battered women can and should leave their abuser 2) a belief that if the woman on trial does not fit the person&quot;s stereotype of a battered woman 3) a belief in the mutuality of abuse that women are just as violent as, or even more violent than men.<BR>&nbsp;&nbsp;In this article, I find reasons that battered women do not leave their abuser. First, they fear revenge. second, they worried about children. They thought children will be adversely affected by parent&quot;s divorce. Third, economical dependency made her stay with abuser. Fourth, a certain women thought that husband and ex-husband acutely need their help. Finally, they have a guilty that they are not good enough as the wife.
