‌Introduction
omen are the material and spiritual assets of society, and their health plays a crucial role in guaranteeing the survival, durability, and dynamics of both the family and society. As the primary contributors to the future generation, women's physical and mental well-being is essential for societal growth and development. This health requires a minimum sense of security, peace, intimacy, compromise, mutual trust, and the absence of violence within the family. However, in contemporary societies, especially in traditional and transitional ones, domestic violence against women has become a significant social issue. This form of violence has destructive consequences for families and societies, weakening the foundations of the family unit, a stable source for nurturing the next generation. Moreover, it creates a void in the active participation of half the society's members in social activities.
In this context, the present research aims to estimate the prevalence of domestic violence against married women in Qazvin city. Additionally, it explores the relationship between cultural and economic capital variables and the occurrence of domestic violence against women in the statistical population.

The research employed a survey method, and the statistical population comprised all married women in Qazvin city, totaling 355,448. A sample of 380 participants was selected using Cochran's formula and stratified random sampling. A questionnaire served as the data collection tool.

Findings‌
The research findings revealed a linear and negative correlation between cultural and economic capital and all four dimensions of domestic violence against women (psychological, physical, sexual, and economic). This correlation was significant at the 0.1 level with 99% confidence. Regression analysis demonstrated that the independent variables predicted 34% of the changes in the variable of domestic violence against women. Structural equation modeling indicated that the variables in the path model explained 42.5% of the changes in the dependent variable.
 
Result‌
Domestic violence against women poses a longstanding problem for societies, jeopardizing the health and safety of women. Given the continuation of the repercussions of this violence in society and its intergenerational transmission, addressing this issue is of paramount importance. Scholars have proposed various factors contributing to domestic violence, with cultural and economic capital emerging as crucial determinants. This research investigates the relationship between these capitals and domestic violence against women. Results from correlation tests, regression analysis, and structural equation modeling emphasize a negative and significant relationship between cultural and economic capital and domestic violence against women. Building on previous theories, it is suggested that individuals and families focus on enhancing cultural capital, such as education, reading habits, cultural participation, and the preservation of religious values, as a step towards preventing and reducing domestic violence.
