This study aimed to adapt Psychological Maltreatment of Women Inventory (PMWI) to Turkish and examine its relationship with Investment Model Scale (IMS) among married men and women. In addition to these two scales, demographic and relational information such as gender, age, occupational status, educational status, marriage duration, number of children, and break-up intentions were also analyzed in relation to PMWI and IMS variables. In addition to comparisons and correlations, a structural equation model of psychological maltreatment and investment model was tested for men and women. The results provided a valid and reliable PMWI adaptation as well as providing proof for the investment model. Furthermore, demographic and relational variables made significant differences in most of the PMWI subscales and IMS variables. Structural Equation Modeling results revealed that psychological maltreatment explained a significant amount of variance in commitment; furthermore, their relationship was partially mediated by satisfaction level, quality of alternatives, and investment size. Findings were discussed in the light of related literature, implications for practice were stated, and recommendations were made for researchers, counselors, counselor educators, policy makers, and public.

An Implication of Health Sector Reform for Disadvantaged Women's Struggle for Birth Control: A Case of Kurdish Rural-Urban Migrant Women in Van, Turkey
HİM, MİKİ; Hoşgör, Hatice Ayşe (2015-09-02)
In this article, we examine how socioeconomically disadvantaged women are affected by health sector reform and family planning policy changes in Turkey through a case study of Kurdish women's struggles for birth control. In Turkey, a family planning program became relatively marginalized in primary health care services as a result of health sector reform as well as a shift of population policy toward a moderately pronatal approach. We argue that an emerging health care system would leave disadvantaged women...
