Two hundred and ten individuals (105 patients under MMT, 105 normal individuals) participated in this study all of whom were asked to complete the domestic violence questionnaire and temperament and character inventory (TCI-56). Results showed that emotional aspects of personality and demographic factors do not predict domestic violence in non-addict sample and patients in MMT programs. Comparing emotional aspects of personality between individuals with experience of domestic violence and without it didn’t show any significant differences between the two groups. Also, no significant differences between non-addict and patients in MMT programs, in emotional dimensions of personality, were observed. Findings are discussed in the context of domestic violence and aspects of personality literature. M3 ER -
