The main purpose of the study is the analysis of social factors affecting the rate of family disputes in Bushehr. The method adopted was survey method and the information of 400 families were collected using questionnaires and cluster sampling. The ordinal regression method of Kendall (tau-b) and multivariate regression was used in the analysis and hypothesis testing and the following results were obtained:
There are significant relationships between communication skills and the rate of family disputes, between the level of education in the family and family disputes, and between the interference of others and family disputes. All the above three hypotheses were confirmed by the results. However, the hypothesis of social status and family disputes were not confirmed. According to the results of the regression, coefficient of determination was (R2=0.378). The coefficient shows that 37.8 percent of family disputes are related to a change in the above-mentioned four variables. Beta coefficient was used regarding the importance and role of independent variables in predicting the dependent variables. The role of each variable compared to the other variable is respectively as follows.
They are communication skills of spouses (-0.635), the interference of others in the life of spouses (0.239), family social status (-0.089), and the level of education (0.035).
