چکیده

Background: Some men use a nuanced set of attitudes, behaviors, and beliefs referred to as “invisible violence” to exert control over women. Although these behaviors are culturally accepted, they remain risk factors for intimate partner violence. Early detection of invisible violence can prevent domestic violence and its negative consequences. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the psychometric properties of the Persian version of the Questionnaire for the Invisible Violence Against Women (Q-IVAW). Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on ۵۲۰ married women who were referred to health centers in Western Iran (Asadabad) in ۲۰۲۳. Sampling was performed using a convenience sampling method. After forward-backward translation, face, content, and construct validity (through exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis) were conducted. Internal consistency was assessed using Cronbach's alpha and McDonald's omega coefficients and stability was assessed using a test-retest. The data were analyzed using SPSS version ۱۶ and Amos version ۲۶ software. Results: In the exploratory factor analysis, four factors, including ‘utilitarian-benevolent sexist behaviors’, ‘crisis sexist behaviors’, ‘coercive sexist behaviors’, and ‘ambivalent sexist behaviors’, were extracted using the maximum likelihood method and Promax rotation. Cronbach's alpha for the four factors was ۰.۸۰۳, ۰.۷۲۴, ۰.۷۳۳, and ۰.۷۰۴, respectively. These factors account for ۴۷.۱۷% of the total variance. In confirmatory factor analysis, the final model demonstrated a good fit (CMIN/DF = ۲.۱۴۰, GFI = ۰.۹۵۲, AGFI = ۰.۹۳۲, NFI = ۰.۹۲۴, IFI = ۰.۹۵۸, CFI = ۰.۹۵۸, RMSEA = ۰.۰۴۷). Conclusion: The Persian version of the Q-IVAW has acceptable psychometric properties and can be used to measure invisible violence in Iranian women.
