Between 20 and 40 percent of respondents in their family have been involved with at least one social injury. Social and political participation has been below average. Regression analysis showed that the coefficient of impact of economic poverty on social participation was 0.13 and political participation was -0.22, ie the more economically poor people were the less social participation and the more political participation. The results of logistic regression analysis showed that respondents with less poverty were less likely to experience social harms, conflict, running away from home, divorce and addiction in their families.

Using a quantitative method of surveying, the present study aimed at investigating the relationship between poverty and emotional relationships among couples living in District 16 of Tehran, Iran. Applying cluster sampling, 400 individuals were selected as the statistical sample. The data were collected using a researcher-made questionnaire and were analyzed using descriptive and analytical statistics given by SPSS (Ver. 20). The results showed a significant negative relationship between economic poverty and emotional relationships between couples (p = 0.001), indicating that the more the economic poverty in the family, the less the emotional relationships among the members would be. In addition, a significant statistical correlation existed among economic poverty, negative behaviors, violence in the family, trust, and supportive behaviors (p = 0.001). In general, economic poverty increases violence, which by itself affects the emotional relationships between couples. Therefore, it appears that if adopted policies focus on improving the household economic status and income, the size of the family and community harms will decrease significantly.
