Abstract
The focus of this article is to show that in Italy nowadays it is not important to relate psychopathology with violence. That is
because it seems that it is more important to study gender and domestic violence as a social and cultural phenomenon than analyzing
its psychopathological issues. Obviously, in accord with the literature there is a relationship about psychopatholgy and violence and
this relationship concerns only about 5% of the total violence reported.
Keywords
gender; domestic violence; Intimate partner violence (IPV)
