Abstract
This study investigates influence of pre-marital counselling on intimate partner violence as perceived by married adults in Saki West, Oyo State, Nigeria. The study adopted descriptive survey design. Population for the study comprised all married adults in the Local Government. Purposive sampling technique was used to draw 200 married adults as the sample for the study. Questionnaire titled “Influence of Pre-marital Counselling on Intimate Partner Violence Questionnaire (IPCIPVQ)” was used to collect data for the study. The content of the instrument was validated by five lecturers: three from the Counsellor Education Department, one from the department of Social Sciences Education and one from the Department of Sociology, University of Ilorin. Split-half method was used to ascertain the reliability of the instrument and a co-efficient of 0.68 was gotten. Mean and rank order was used to answer the research question, while t-test was used to test the hypotheses at 0.05 levels of significance. The finding of the study revealed that influence of pre-marital counselling on intimate partner violence include: explaining responsibilities of the individual partners, encouraging medical examination and compatibility tests, explaining gender-peculiar characteristics, teaching verbal restraint during arguments and encouraging faithfulness. The finding also revealed that gender does not make significant difference in the married adults’ perceptions of influence of pre-marital counselling on intimate partner violence, but literacy level and length of marriage do. It was recommended among others that governments should make pre-marital counselling certificate a pre-requisite for marriage registration across the States of the Federations.
