abstract="The concept of Culture of Honour is currently acquiring greater relevance as a variable that may explain or affect violence against women A culture of honour would justify and use violence to defend women's honour and dominate the relation. This occurs even in our close environment, which is why it is necessary that more research work is undertaken in this area. In the present study, 406 individuals (203 couples) were asked to complete a questionnaire measuring: culture of honour, gender identity and sociodemographic variables. The results show there is an important relationship between sociodemographic variables (age, sex, and education level) and how subjects' perceive culture of honour, Masculine-agency gender identity was also found to be significantly related with attributing greater importance to honour.<p />",
