These findings are important and address some of Bowker’s limitations. Even so, Smith was still interviewing women about men. Like Bowker, Smith did not actually interview the men who abused his respondents, which raises at least some questions about the validity of his measure of peer approval. Smith was well aware of this problem and stated:

It should be noted that many of the responses are as much an explanation of why the respondent thinks that her husband’s friends either do abuse, or would abuse, their own wives as they are of why her husband’s friends would approve in general of a husband slapping his wife. It seems that these respondents make inferences about approval generally based on their understanding of how their husbands’ male friends treated their own wives. (p. 515)
