TY - JOUR PY - 1994// TI - Sources of family violence JO - Journal of social distress and the homeless A1 - Herron, William G. A1 - Javier, Rafael Art A1 - McDonald-Gomez, Maura A1 - Adlerstein, Lydia K. SP - 213 EP - 228 VL - 3 IS - 3 N2 - This paper suggests a direction for the exploration of the causes of family violence. Explanatory models of family violence were considered in this regard, with the recommendation that a multi-determined model should be considered to ensure the most accurate explanation. We suggest that family violence will be best understood and prevented or alleviated, if a model is used that considers the interaction of structural violence and the personality features of all the family members.
