Violence is of a multifaceted nature. It is the result of a number of different complex factors; individual, relationships, community and society. All factors are interlinked, having influence on each other. There is a strong correlation between these four levels and factors an individual may face, such as cultural norms, poverty, social isolation, and alcohol abuse. Furthermore, violence and abuse can be initiated by any of these factors and or at any stage of life.

Violence is measured by 4 categories; Physical, sexual, psychological, deprivation/ neglect. Each of these categories is then further divided into who is causing the violence; self-directed, interpersonal, or collective. Then measuring the extent of the violence is done by looking at mortality rates, health data, crime data, community data, and more. This can be difficult as there are issues with the availability of the data, ethical considerations, issues with confidentiality, etc.

There is no one reason as to why people behave violently towards others or why violence is more common in some communities than others. There are many underlying factors. Some of these are individual, relationship, community and societal factors. The first level is individual, which explores biological and personal historical factors. Some characteristics in this level are impulsivity, low education and substance abuse.
The second level is relationships, which means that people who are violent may be influenced by friends/family members, allowing for abuse to continue in a cycle.
Next there is the community level. Some characteristics here include a high level of residential mobility, diverse populations and high population density. These may be associated with violence. The prevalence of violence is higher in communities suffering from poverty or physical deterioration.
Lastly there is the societal factor, showing that some societies have normalized violence due to numerous factors such as male dominance, parental rights and political conflict.
