Any study on IPV among males had not been reported from Nepal so far as we are concerned. Thus, the present study was conducted to estimate the prevalence of IPV among males and its association with socio-demographic characteristics, behavioral habits, and depression. Methodology: A community-based cross-sectional study was conducted in Kathmandu Municipality in 2018. An adequate sample of 210 married men was selected from randomly selected 10 wards of Kathmandu Municipality. A semi structured questionnaire including standard scales was used for data collection. Multivariate analysis was performed to find out the association of IPV with different variables. Results: The mean age of male respondents was 40.19 years. More than half of the respondents were Janajatis. Overwhelming respondents were Hindu (religion). IPV was estimated in forms of Physical violence, 31.9%, Sexual violence, 4.3%, and Psychological violence, 50.5%. Age, age at marriage, marriage type, marriage decision, spousal age gap, family income, education, smoking habit and depression were independently associated with violence. However, family income and education were found to be significant factors associated with violence even after adjusting the effects of other potential factors. Conclusion: Strong association of IPV with family income, and education of male respondents was observed. More than half of the males had psychological violence and nearly one-third of the participants had Physical violence. The study concludes that IPV among males could not be neglected.
