ABSTRACT
The study assessed domestic violence against women on family relationship in Taraba State. The literature reviewed highlighted that most victims of sexual abuse are those with low economic status, under-age, illness, disability or under the influence of alcohol or other drugs. Domestic violence against women is domiciled in the home cutting across race, level of education since women are regarded second class citizens. The study was conducted on married couples in four selected local government areas of Taraba State, with a population of 266,244 using descriptive survey research design. Four research objectives were stated with four correspondent research questions and null hypotheses. The sample of 500 was selected using sampling technique. The instrument used for collecting data for the study was a thirty-three (33) items questionnaire. Data were collected by the researcher with the help of three trained research assistants from the study areas. Data collected were statistically analysed using mean, standard deviation to obtain differences in responses of the subjects while Pearson Product Moment Correlation Coefficient was used to test the four null hypotheses at 0.05 level of significance. The findings revealed that there is a significant relationship between domestic violence against women and family relationship. The first finding showed that, there was a high effect of spousal abuse against women and family relationship which stated that partners gave threatening looks when he/she did not agree with something said or done, which creates fear. Religious and elders in the community in Taraba State should give talks on how good homes should be and how partners live peacefully by giving each other mutual respect and taking collective decision that concerns the family to strengthen family relationship. The researcher further recommended that Taraba State Government should set up guidance and counseling centres on family matters, to educate partners on how best to improve family relationship.
