Effects of Domestic Violence

...

Discussion

After the results we collected of the data analysis a saturation had been reached, a theory was developed. The researchers developed a visual model to aid in the understanding of the research findings. The model assists in illustrating the relationship between the developed categories. The research proposed that societal attitudes regarding the blaming of abuse victims must change before women will be able to break free of the feeling of stigmatization and blame regarding the abusive relationship. The research also supported the findings of numerous prior research studies. It found that women’s identity and sense of self are negatively impacted by involvement in violent relationships. The research participants were also found to minimize the effects of the abuse while consequently attempting to justify the abusive behaviour. These findings tended to decrease the abuse victims’ resiliency.

The research study presents clear findings regarding the psychological effects of abuse on women’s sense of identity, there were limitations to the research results. women included in the study group were included in the research as a result of requiring services to assist them with difficulties with their children. Another limitation of the study is the fact that the women may have focused more on the negative aspects of their lives due to their current domestic situation. All women interviewed were white and from the same vicinity, thus creating a limitation in the ability to generalize the research findings to other ethnic groups.
