Abstract
This study explored patterns of economic abuse among working married women in rural and urban Jordan, identifying interconnected experiences with psychological, emotional, physical abuse, and harassment. Findings revealed that 55.5% of urban and 44.5% of rural women experienced spousal economic abuse, encompassing control of resources and exploitation. Economic abuse correlated strongly with emotional and psychological abuse, followed by physical abuse and workplace harassment. Urban women generally faced more abuse than rural women.
