Here are some sources of info for your references:
Symptomology
ICD9 code 995.81 shows the syndrome as including "battered person/man/spouse syndrome NEC" and any person presenting with identified physical descriptors rather than psychological descriptors falls under the general heading of "Adult physical abuse", classified under "Injury and Poisoning". In lay terms, this is a reference to any person who, because of constant and severe domestic violence usually involving physical abuse by a partner, becomes depressed and unable to take any independent action that would allow him or her to escape the abuse. The condition explains why abused people often do not seek assistance from others, fight their abuser, or leave the abusive situation. Sufferers have low self-esteem, and often believe that the abuse is their fault. Such persons usually refuse to press criminal charges against their abuser, and refuse all offers of help, often becoming aggressive or abusive to others who attempt to offer assistance. Often sufferers will even seek out their very abuser for comfort shortly after an incident of abuse.

Learned helplessness
a condition of a human being or an animal in which it has learned to behave helplessly, even when the opportunity is restored for it to help itself by avoiding an unpleasant or harmful circumstance to which it has been subjected. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Learned_helplessness
Fear, Obligation & Guilt
The acronym FOG stands for Fear, Obligation & Guilt - feelings which often result from being in a relationship with a person who suffers from a Personality Disorder. It is our hope that the information on this site may help some navigate out of the FOG in their own lives.

在任何情況下都不可接受"家庭暴力",
合則來,
不合則去,
不應用暴力對待另一方的!
家庭內部的暴力行為?
什麼是"家庭外部的暴力行為"呢?
There is another form of domestic violence that seldom get mentioned or taken seriously. It's emotional abuse. For some reasons, lawmakers decide that our emotional health is less important than our physical health. It's just wrong.
雖然個案中女性常是受害者
男方成為受害者多備受忽略

>> ... 什麼是"家庭外部的暴力行為"呢?
Within the context of violence against one or more members of a nuclear family, I would define "家庭外部的暴力行為" as external forces that encourage or execute the use of violence to deal with domestic affairs. For examples, in certain countries:
- the so-called honour killings of women by male/female relatives or villagers
- the killings of coloured men (and even white women) found having inter-racial relationships
In most cases, these external forces are the results of a more systemic, wide-spread, value-based problem.
Exile:
I agree with you that both physical and emotional abuses are bad. Unfortunately, the latter is harder to prove in court despite the fact that emotional scars could also last for a life time.
Space: In an ideal society, the person carrying out justice is supposed to be blind-folded while holding a balance that represents fairness.
你說的是暴力行為,
只針對種族、宗教、性別等等因素的,
和家庭為單位没有很大關係,
何不直接叫"暴力行為"呢?

I was trying to distinguish btwn violent acts associated with domestic affairs and those committed elsewhere, such as robbery in a bank. But your point is well taken. Thanks !!!
