En socialpsykologisk analys av samkönat partnervåld ur ett makt- och normativitetsperspektiv / A social psychological analysis of same-sex partner violence from a power- and normativity perspectivevon Braun, Thérèse January 2009 (has links)
Uppsatsens syfte var att nå en större teoretisk förståelse av samkönat partnervåld, genom att analysera olika forskningsartiklars narrativa konstruktioner av våldet. De två frågeställningarna var: 1. Hur diskuterar forskningslitteraturen samkönat partnervåld med fokus på temana relationsdynamik, karaktär hos parterna, kön, genus och sexualitet samt betydelsen av social kontext? 2. Hur diskuterar forskningslitteraturen det professionella bemötandet av samkönat partnervåld? De 21 valda primärdokumenten som analyserats är artiklar som granskats vetenskapligt via peer-review och författats av forskare och professionella terapeuter och behandlare. Materialet har bearbetats utifrån en hermeneutisk ansats, socialkonstruktionism och psykodynamisk teori. Resultatet visade att individuella faktorer är av stor betydelse rörande relationens båda parter såväl som de professionella som i sin yrkesutövning träffar parterna. Det är dock nödvändigt att sätta både relationen och mötena med professionella i en social kontext för att nå en djupare och mer omfattande förståelse av samkönat partnervåld och de professionellas bemötande av våldet. En flerdimensionell analys, exempelvis en socialpsykologisk, verkar därför nödvändig. / The purpose of this study was to get a deeper theoretical understanding of same-sex partner violence by doing an analysis of the narrative constructions in research articles. The two questions at issue was: 1. How does research literature discuss same-sex partner violence with focus on relationship dynamics, the characteristics of the two parties, sex, gender and sexuality and the social context? 2. How does research literature discuss the professional treatment of same-sex partner violence? The 21 primary documents that were chosen are peer-reviewed articles written by researchers and professional therapists and counsellors. To investigate the narrative constructions the primary documents were analyzed with a hermeneutic approach, social constructionism and the psychodynamic theory. The research findings showed that individual factors are significant to the understanding of the violent relationships as well as the professionals who meet the relationships parties in their profession. It is, however, also necessary to put the relationship and the professionals in a social context to get a deeper and more extensive understanding of same-sex partner violence and the professionals treat of the parties. A multidimensional analysis, for example a social psychological one, therefore seems necessary.

Intimate Partner Abuse within Hispanic Divorcing ParentsTehee, Melissa A. January 2015 (has links)
Little is known about intimate partner abuse (IPA) in divorcing Hispanic parents and how divorcing Hispanic parents utilize legal, social, or community services in regards to their experience of IPA. Research has identified many barriers for Hispanics attempting to access these services, including lack of knowledge of laws and services, lack of access, discrimination, and language barriers. This study aimed to understand the underlying dyadic structures of IPA and how such abuse affects the utilization of civil court processes in addition to social, community, and health services. Data sources included records from the civil court and mediation services, self-reports of intimate partner abuse, and law enforcement records. This paper focused on a subsample from a larger study and included 187 Hispanic couples and 467 non-Hispanic White couples. Results revealed differences between groups in terms of coercive controlling behaviors and their relationship with other forms of IPA. The strength of the relationship between coercive controlling behaviors and IPA victimization was equal for Hispanic husbands and wives, and also equal to White husbands' IPA perpetration, but had a weaker relationship between White wives' IPA perpetration. Overall Hispanic and Non-Hispanic White couples had similar interactions with the civil court system, ranging from time to complete the divorce and interactions with the court after divorce. Within the Hispanic group, couples with at least one partner preferring Spanish were significantly less likely to complete the divorce process, and had fewer contacts with the court after the divorce was finalized. Hispanic couples who were identified as experiencing IPA were significantly less likely to utilize certain helping services, but not others. Possible explanations, limitations, and future directions are explored.

婚暴社工運用優勢觀點的復元經驗及促進復元之因素 / A Study on Process and Facilitating Factors of Recovery among Social workers in the Field of Partner Abuse賴俐均, Lai, Li Chun Unknown Date (has links)
本文目的在於了解婚暴社工運用優勢觀點的復元經驗及促進復元之因素,包含婚暴社工的工作逆境、復元經驗以及促進復元之因素。本研究以八位民間單位婚暴社工為對象,運用深度訪談法蒐集資料,研究結果發現如下:
一、 本研究發現婚暴社工面臨的挫折與壓力有四個來源,分別為「工作上的挫折與壓力」、「來自個案的挫折與壓力」、「媒體報導」以及「現行家暴體制」。工作上的挫折與壓力分別為:(1)與期待上的落差、(2)家暴工作的本質、(3)紀錄及行政工作;來自個案的挫折與壓力有:(1)個案改變意願不高、拒絕服務、(2)個案反覆、(3)個案質疑、威脅、重大案件、(4)精神疾患;源自現行家暴體制中的挫折與壓力有:(1)人力不足、(2)網絡合作壓力、(3)重大事件的檢討制度。
二、 本研究發現婚暴社工的復元經驗包含工作上的復元以及生活上的復元。工作上的復元包括:工作上的轉念、看待個案的方式、工作模式的改變以及對社工價值的肯定。在生活上的復元包括:正向能量提升、關係改變、教育子女方式改變以及自身的改變。
三、 促進婚暴社工復元的因素有四,分別為「個案部分」、「正式資源」、「非正式資源」以及「社工本身的因素」。個案部分包括:(1)看見個案復元、(2)個案本身的力量、(3)個案回饋;正式資源部分包括:(1)組織協助、(2)督導制度、(3)同儕部分、(4)網絡單位、(5)教育訓練;在非正式資源部分包括:(1)家人的支持、(2)朋友的支持、(3)信仰;社工本身的因素包括:(1)社工轉念、(2)社工特質、(3)社工自我覺察。
四、 本研究歸納社工學習優勢觀點及復元歷程,發現社工將學習優勢觀點視為復元的一部份,因此有「學習期」、「衝撞期」到「成長復元期」。在成長復元期時,正向能量會不斷上升,然而情緒仍會受外在事件影響,只是撫平情緒的速度加快。
五、 本研究之發現,有助於規畫如何發揮現有資源之功能,促進社工員復元。研究者據以針對婚暴社工本身及組織部分提出建議。 / The study aimed to explore the process, and facilitating factors of recovery among social workers in the field of partner abuse. The aspects addressed included the adversities social workers encountered, the recovery experiences and the facilitating factors of recovery. The investigator in depth interviewed eight social workers in NGO. The results are as follows:
1. The results indicated that social workers in the field of partner abuse may encounter four types of work related pressure and frustration : on work、from client、media coverage、and the system of domestic violence. Work related pressure and the frustration include: the gap between expectation and results, the property of domestic violence, work load of case recording and administration; the pressure and the frustration from client includ: lack of motivation for change or receiving services, clients couldn’t make up their mind, client distrust and serious event, and mental disorders. The system related pressure and frustration includ: insufficient social workers, pressure from service network, and the institution review on serious event.
2. The results indicated that social workers may have two types of recovery: work and life. The recovery on work included: reconstruction on their work and clients, changing working model, and reaffirming the value of social work. The recovery on life included: positive power increased, their relationship improved, changing the way of discipling their children and themselves.
3. There are four types of facilitating factors: client, formal resources, unformal resources, and social works. Client related factors includ: clients’ recovery, seeing the power of clients, clients’ feedbacks. Formal resources related factors includ: assistance from the organization, supervision, peer support, the service network, and training. Unformal resources related factors includ: support from family and friends, and spiritual faith. The social works related factors includ: reconstruction, the characteristics of social worker, and self awareness.
4. The process of recovery starts from the “learning stage”,” collide stage” to “growth and recovery stage”. On the growth and recovery stage, the positive energy increased, social workers’ mood would still influenced by external events, and yet could regain peace in a shorter time.
5. The above mentioned facilitating factors of recovery could be useful for planning future employee assistance program. Some suggestions are provided for social workers and NGO.

Young adult college students’ partner abuse experiences: Perceived couple relationship dynamics and abuse typology.Chitkara, Anjuli 10 April 2018 (has links)
Risk for experiencing partner abuse (PA) is high during young adulthood. National estimates of the prevalence of PA among young adults and scholarly literature on the enduring impact of PA highlight the importance of understanding this public health issue. Extant literature has primarily focused on individual risk factors for PA, with much less known about couple relationship dynamics, or the specific typologies of violence these characteristics are associated with. This study used data collected nationally from 3,555 young adult college students living in the U.S. to examine experiences of PA. The purpose of this dissertation study was to (a) provide descriptive information about young adult college students’ experiences of couple relationship dynamics and PA and (b) examine how college students’ individual characteristics, relationship characteristics, and perceived couple relationship dynamics were associated with typologies and forms of PA for males and females.
Data were analyzed using univariate, bivariate analyses, and multinomial logistic regressions. Study findings revealed that (a) the individual and relationship characteristics as well as violence experiences of young adults comprising this sample are representative of the characteristics and violence experiences of those identified with other samples of young adult college students living in the US; (b) perceived couple relationship dynamics were differentially related to the main effects of gender, age, year in school, relationship type, relationship duration, and cohabitation status; (c) when controlling for gender, age, and year in school perceived couple relationship dynamic scores varied by the interaction of severity of psychological aggression experienced and perpetrated; (d) perceived couple relationship dynamic scores were differentially related to severity of physical and sexual violence experienced; (e) there are unique characteristics associated with experiences of perpetration-only, victimization-only, and bidirectional violence; (f) there are a number of individual and relationship characteristics and perceived couple relationship dynamic scores that increase the odds of engaging in bidirectional violence for male and female young adult college students in the present study; (g) there are few variables in this model that increase the odds of females being perpetrators-only; and (h) there are few variables in this model that increase odds of males being victims-only. / 10000-01-01

Domácí násilí - kriminologické a trestněprávní aspekty / Domestic violence - criminological and criminal aspectsMužíková, Kateřina January 2017 (has links)
Domestic violence is an important problem in theory and in practical context. It is a serious social concern with high level of latency and this is why we still need to talk about it. An each family member, can be a victim in most of cases women are victims. This thesis also focuses on male victims of spousal violence. A violence is different for each of these groups which is described in this thesis. This thesis is divided into seven chapters. The introductory chapter is focused on the historical context of domestic violence. This chapter analyses the status of the victim and also deals with new convention of Council of Europe - Action against violence against women and domestic violence (Istanbul convention). The second chapter explains what the domestic violence is and types and characters does it have. It is impossible giving a precise definition of phenomenon domestic violence. On the other hand, we can find attempts to define the domestic violence and some of these are mentioned in this chapter. Domestic violence tends to be cyclical when the periods of calm, tension and violence alternate, which is also decribed in this chapter. In the third chapter are described individual forms of violence: physical, psychological, sexual and economic. These forms include lots of instances of violence. This...

The Effect of a Drama on Young Adults' Attitudes About Domestic ViolenceWatson, Regina 01 January 2015 (has links)
Intimate partner abuse has been and remains a pervasive problem that has been documented in every race, religion, class, and level of education. This study presented the rationale for achieving positive social change by examining the problem through prevention rather than reaction and intervention. Although many theories of causation have been presented at various times, none has been proven or offers a complete explanation. Social ecological theory examines the interaction of individual, community, relational, and societal influences on the development of attitudes and behavior acceptance. This pre and post-survey group, quasi-experimental study examined the effects of an intervention on attitudes about intimate partner abuse, specifically in young adults. The intervention was a 30-minute drama about dating abuse. Seventy-nine young adults from an online participant pool completed the Domestic Violence Myth Acceptance Scale (DVMAS) just prior to and after the intervention. Cronbach's alpha test of reliability was conducted on the 4 subscales of the DVMAS. Demographic data were presented on age, marital status, gender, and church attendance. A MANOVA did not demonstrate a significant difference between the overall scores on the DVMAS or the 4 sub scales before and after the intervention (p = .230). This research contributes to social change by adding to the body of knowledge about applications of social ecological theory to intimate partner abuse prevention. Attitudes and behaviors that lead to the perpetration or acceptance of intimate partner abuse do not arise from a single incident, discussion, or point in time. Multiple levels of exposures and multiple exposures contribute to the behavior and ultimately will be necessary for its prevention.

Making the invisible visible : a grounded theory study of female adult trauma survivors reconstructing reality with supportive othersKossurok, Anke January 2018 (has links)
Violence against women and children is a pervasive challenge across the globe. Research has shown that survivors of interpersonal violence, such as child maltreatment and intimate partner violence, may develop a complex form of post-traumatic stress disorder accompanied by, for example, difficulties in regulating emotions and relating to others. Additional mental health and social problems contribute to survivors' long-term impairment. Therefore, it is imperative that we understand the key elements and processes that facilitate trauma recovery. The majority of research places survivors as individuals at the core of understanding trauma and recovery, which makes it an intrapsychic problem focused on, for example, the individual's cognitive bias, maladaptive interpersonal behaviour, or emotion dysregulation which need repairing, rather than considering appropriately the role of context, external factors and social processes. Thus, trauma recovery may be more complicated. The current study explored key elements and processes of trauma recovery in female adult survivors with a focus on emotional and interpersonal skills, within the narratives of individuals constructing their own recovery within an interpersonal context. Fifteen female adult survivors were recruited from a statutory clinical service and a third-sector community project. Participants were interviewed individually, and data were analysed qualitatively using grounded theory. The study constructed a framework of four key components. Women survivors initially disengaged from feelings, other people and themselves (1), gradually made hidden experiences visible (2) and examined these (3), and eventually reconstructed their reality (4). Although not always a linear process, this framework revealed a transition from self-guided to supported self-management. Women survivors sought out relationships, were impacted by relationships, and these relationships changed the way survivors responded. Thus, female trauma survivors reconstructed abuse, trauma and identity through various supportive others. Similarly, female survivors reframed emotional and interpersonal difficulties and gradually managed these through relationships. Future research as well as theories, practices and policies need to consider the multifaceted and relational nature of interpersonal trauma recovery. Guidelines and practices, for instance, could include community-focused strategies that provide a larger network of support to survivors and, thus, would offer multiple opportunities to experience positive interactions. Equally, mandatory training of health care staff about interpersonal violence and subsequent trauma as well as training in relating positively to survivors would make a real difference.
