abstract="The present study investigated the usefulness of the construct of abuse-related problem-solving in relation to the reported experience of abuse by a partner in both clinical and nonclinical samples of women. Data were collected from a clinical sample of 101 women who were receiving treatment at a domestic violence shelter and from a nonclinical sample of 635 female undergraduates attending a medium-sized university. Analysis indicated that women in both samples who possessed good abuse-related problem-solving ability reported experiencing less abuse from their partners. The usefulness of this construct as well as its limitations were noted.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
