Abstract
We calculate the two-boson-exchange (TBE) corrections to the parity-violating asymmetry of the elastic electron-proton scattering in a simple hadronic model including the nucleon and the intermediate states. We find that contribution is, in general, comparable with the nucleon contribution and the current experimental measurements of strange-quark effects in the proton neutral weak current. The total TBE corrections to the current extracted values of in recent experiments are found to lie in the range of .
