Nasilje u intimnim partnerskim odnosima predstavlja široko rasprostranjenu pojavu i najčešći je vid viktimizacije žena nasiljem u porodici. Označava kršenje ženskih ljudskih prava i oblik diskriminacije žena, a s obzirom na kompleksnost i štetnost posledica, predstavlja ozbiljan društveni problem. Predrasude i neinformisanost o nasilju nad ženama potpomažu, podstiču i opravdavaju nasilje i utiču na to kako će (i da li će uopšte) jedna sredina ili sama žena prepoznati nasilje i na njega reagovati, pa je zato saznavanje činjenica o nasilju, prepoznavanje, razotkrivanje i stalno pobijanje ovih predrasuda jedan odprvih koraka u okončavanju nasilja nad ženama. Upravo zato predmet ovog rada jesu karakteristike izvršilaca partnerskog nasilja, a cilj je da se dođe do bližih saznanja o karakteristikama ifaktorima koji doprinose nasilnom ponašanju.
