The researchers aim was to examine the predictors of marital adjustment among child brides in Turkey. The sample included 246 women who were between 18 and 49 years of age, got married while under the age of 18, not divorced, who spoke Turkish or Kurdish, by using convenience sampling method. We used a marital adjustment scale and a survey form to collect data. Our findings indicated that marital adjustment was low among child brides. The factors affecting women's marital adjustment were duration and types of the marriage, number of pregnancies and physical violence. The incidence of physical violence was inversely correlated with the scores of marital adjustment of women, while the women's age, education, income level, number of living children, age, and the education level of their partner was not correlated. The results of this study would be useful for nurses, midwives, social workers, and counselors who assist women who are facing domestic violence.
