This document discusses understanding marital conflicts in Egyptian culture. It provides statistics showing that divorce rates in Egypt have increased significantly in recent decades. Marital conflicts arise from problems with communication, feelings of neglect, disrespect, anger, and loneliness. Successful marriages are characterized by affection, positive communication, mutual childcare responsibilities, and effective conflict resolution. Distressed marriages involve more punishment and criticism rather than positive exchanges. Understanding cultural factors is important for addressing marital conflicts in Egypt, such as changing social norms around responsibility in marriage and differing responses to problems compared to the past.

human rights of a child, constituting all forms of
physical, emotional ill treatment, sexual harm,
neglect or negligent treatment, commercial or
other exploitation, resulting in actual harm or
potential harm to the child’s health, survival,
development or dignity in the context of a relationship of responsibility, trust or power. ‘Child
Neglect’ is stated to occur when there is failure

a position to do so (where resources available
to the family or care giver; distinguished from
poverty).

In order to have citizens capable of creating peace in the world, we need stable families that instill values and capacities for peacebuilding. Marriage and the family serve a unique and essential purpose for optimum human development. Research is showing that straying from that purpose weakens the family, increasing disadvantages for the next generation and the future. Clarifying the value of the family will help us strengthen this essential building block of peace.

Child abuse is estimated to affect one in four homes. Due to cultural
stigmas, many do not get reported, yet the effect of child sex abuse to
victims and survivors is so devastating, they kept it to themselves and
many times they bring to their grave without being healed or being
whole in their lifetime. This presentation intends to answer key
questions related to child sex abuse, and its consequence prevention
and treatment. It also intends to take a look at the child sex abuser and
the occasional presence of co-dependents, who make perpetrators
bolder in their acts.

3. Agenda
• Introduction
• Normal Family Development
• Characteristics of “happy” couples
• Domestic Violence in a Sample of
Egyptian Female Psychiatric
Patients (Pilot Study)
• Understanding Marital Conflicts in
Egyptian Culture
6. Normal Family Development
• Satisfying relationships: balance between giving and
getting. There is “a high ratio of benefits relative to
costs”.
• Critical influences on relationship satisfaction:
• affection
• communication
• child care
• Conflict resolution seems to be one of the most critical
skills associated with family harmony.
7. Understanding Marital Conflicts
• Marital conflicts combine problems of communication,
alienation or some threat to the relationships security
which lead to high anxiety and erosion of the marital
system.
• Feelings of neglect, disrespect, unloved, anger,
loneliness, abandonment and growing feelings of
inadequacy all contribute to the breakdown in the
marriage.
8. • Cause of Marital Discord:
• Receiving too little reinforcement from the marriage.
• Two few needs given marital reinforcement.
• Marital reinforcement no longer provides satisfaction.
• New behaviors are not reinforced.
• One spouse gives more reinforcement than he or she receives.
• Marriage interferes with extramarital sources of satisfaction.
• Communication about potential sources of satisfaction is not
adequate.
• Aversive control (nagging, crying, withdrawing, or threatening)
predominates over positive reinforcement.
9. Development of Behavior Disorders (cont.)
• Distressed marriages include fewer rewarding exchanges
and more punishing exchanges.
• “Spouses typically reciprocate their partners’ use of
punishment, and a vicious cycle develops”.
• Parents who respond aversively to children are likely to
have aversive responses reciprocated.
10. UNDERSTANDING THE FAMILY
• Most important function is socialization
• Process by which children acquire the beliefs, motives, values,
and behaviors considered appropriate in their society
11. UNDERSTANDING THE FAMILY
• The Family as a Social System
• Parents influence children
• Children influence behavior of their parents
• Families are networks of reciprocal relationships
• Happily married mothers are more likely to have securely
attached children
• Children do best when couples coparent
12. Characteristics of “happy” couples
• Characteristics:
• foundation of affection and friendship
• "validation sequences“
• ability to resolve disagreements
• “positive sentiment override”
• a 5 to 1(or better) compliment -criticism ratio is
optimal
• as the ratio decreases, marriage satisfaction
decreases
• Amount of conflict relatively unimportant (all
relationships have conflict)
13. Distressed couples
• Engage in a wide range of destructive fighting techniques
• Personal attacks (name calling)
• Dredging up the past
• Losing focus (…and the “kitchen sink”)
• Negative behaviors
• Criticism (more common in women)
• Defensiveness
• Withdrawal (more common in men)
• Contempt
14. The Workaholic as Parent
• Often preoccupied with their own thoughts, “mentally absent”
• Always “rushing around”, irritable, cranky, lacking humor
• Focused on “adult pursuits”: colleagues, intellect, ‘trying to earn a
living’
• Involvement with the family is on their own terms
• Child tries to become like the parent in order to win their love and
approval
• Child measures his worth based on what he does, not by who he
is…can never meet parent’s expectations
15. The Workaholic…in Love
• WA usually demand a great deal of their marital partner
(understanding, patience, deferral of needs, “adjusting”)
• WA tend to avoid confrontation & engage in “silent
treatment”
• WA may engage in extramarital affairs, particularly with
an office-mate
• WA may develop alcoholism or substance abuse out of
unresolved emotional issues & as a coping mechanism to
relax, discharge emotional tension
16. Issues that lower the divorce rate:
• First marriage
• Higher education (college and above)
• Married in 20s or 30s (not teens)
• Not lived with many partners prior to marriage
• Religious convictions

Abstract
Domestic violence is one of the most pervasive of all social problems, Domestic violence
for
women is violence perpetrated within relationships; this violence is much serious than
violence
perpetrated by a stranger.
The hypothesis of this work is that domestic violence is a general
health problem and not present particularly in psychiatric patients, the study aims at
studying
domestic violence in married female psychiatric patients.
Method: Sixty Egyptian married
females were included, 20 of them had the I.C.D.-10 diagnosis of bipolar affective
disorder, 20
with neurotic disorder and 20 control group. All groups were clinically and
psychometrically
assessed using clinical psychiatric sheet of Kasr El-Aini hospital. All participants were
subjected
to: Zung Self Rating Depression Scale, Locus of Control Scale, Esyenck Personality
Questionnaire (E.P.Q) and a specially designed questionnaire to assess intimacy, and
marital abuse or violence.
Conclusion: Domestic violence occurring in female psychiatric patients is not
higher than normal. In addition, despite abuse, Egyptian wives tend to see their
husbands positively.
