TY - JOUR PY - 1998// TI - Reports of husband battering from an undergraduate sample in Umtata JO - Psychological reports A1 - Mwamwenda, T. S. SP - 517 EP - 518 VL - 82 IS - 2 N2 - The objective of the present study was to explore the extent to which husband battering is practised among Xhosa-speaking women (n = 138) and men (n = 81) in Transkei. Analysis showed that husband battering is not an unknown sociological practice as a small number of women do in fact beat up their husbands. Contrary to conventional and cultural knowledge wife battering is not a one-way phenomenon although it is practised more widely.
