The correlational approach was used to achieve the study's goals. The study was conducted on a sample consisted of (127) battered women in Palestine. The current study's findings revealed a moderate level of existential vacuum and family-based support; as well as an inverse relationship between existential vacuum and family-based support among battered women. Furthermore, there were no differences in the level of existential vacuum among battered women due to the academic qualification, whereas there were differences attributed to the number of children in favor of more than 3 children. The findings also revealed differences in the level of the family-based support among battered women due to the academic qualification in favor of higher than Tawjihi, as well as differences attributed to children variable in favor of (1-3 children). Based on our findings, we recommend that family-based institutions have to provide battered women with all forms of family-based support, as this has a significant impact on their feelings of being prevented from being present, particularly for women with limited access to education.</i>
