In discussing the challenges of domestic violence, we used exchange theory to address
why many women stay in an abusive relationship. From an exchange theory
perspective, they would only stay if the rewards outweighed the costs. Please list and
describe three potential REWARDS of staying from the woman's perspective. - Answer-
1. financially she is more secure she would be without her significant other. If she
leaves, her income may be cut in half or even become non-exhistant.
2. She loves her abuser. At one point she was convinced that her significant other loved
her and perhaps is still convinced he does. If she stays there is a reward to feel that
love from him again.
3. She gets to keep her family together. If she stays with him, that means she does not
have to break up her family.

Violence/attack: 1. a crime has been committed. 2. "the last straw" is drawn that justifies
the abuse from the attacker. Also the violent attack intensifies with each cycle.

better. 2 With each cycle the honeymoon phase become shorter and shorter.
