This thesis investigates the effect of childhood violence history, intimate partner violence, negative attribution style, perceived social support and coping strategies on psychological symptomatology in Turkish professional women. Accordingly, the model presented in present study suggested pre-violence, with-in violence and post-violence factors predicting psychological symptomatology. Overall examination of the factors associated with psychological symptomatology revealed that childhood violence history, intimate partner violence, negative attribution style, emotional focused coping were positively related to psychological symptomatology of women. In addition, women’s negative attributions for partner’s behavior mediated the relationship between intimate partner violence and depressive symptoms. On the other hand, social support and problem focused coping were negatively associated with psychological symptomatology of women. A significant moderator role of social support on the relationship between intimate partner violence and psychological symptomatology indicated that social support may be a protective factor for the negative psychological outcome when women expose to intimate partner violence. Women who reported any kind of violence differed on the scores of anxiety, depression, somatization, negative-self and hostility, as compared to women who did not report violence. Furthermore, professional women participated in the present study reported more emotional/psychological partner violence and found emotional/psychological partner violence as most distressing type of violence, as compared to physical violence and controlling behaviors of man.
