Família em situação de violência doméstica contra a criança e o adolescente: é possível romper com esse cenário?Ilcélia Alves Soares 10 November 2009 (has links)
A violência doméstica contra a criança e o adolescente é considerada um fenômeno multifacetado que diz respeito às relações com abuso de poder entre pessoas que estabelecem vínculo afetivo de parentesco e/ou de convivência. Seu locus de manifestação tem sido a família em que, os adultos pais e mães são os autores, sujeitos e produtores dessa violência, enquanto as crianças e os adolescentes têm sido as pessoas que vivem em situação de violência doméstica. É um drama familiar que se constitui no coletivo, atravessado pela cultura, economia, religião e política. É neste cenário que o presente trabalho se desenvolve. Norteado por uma metodologia de natureza qualitativa, tem como objetivo compreender como as famílias, em situação de violência doméstica, atendidas por uma Organização Não-Governamental rompem com este cenário. Os participantes foram cinco famílias compostas por adultos, crianças e adolescentes, atores sociais que residem na cidade de Recife e Região Metropolitana. O instrumento utilizado foi a entrevista semiestruturada com perguntas concernentes à ruptura da violência doméstica contra a criança e o adolescente. Os dados coletados foram submetidos à Análise de Conteúdo, com o propósito de identificar os núcleos de sentidos que englobam quatro eixos temáticos: violências identificadas; vínculos: relações de afeto e poder; dinâmica familiar e processo de ruptura e caminhos para o rompimento.
Através da análise do material coletado nas entrevistas, foi identificada a presença de violência física e psicológica doméstica no seio da família, sendo a mulher e mãe a principal autora dessas violências contra seus filhos e filhas. No entanto, o que chama atenção nas famílias pesquisadas é que a ruptura da violência doméstica começa a partir das próprias autoras, quando rompem com o pacto do silêncio, falando sobre as violências vividas, em um grupo de discussão composto por mulheres, facilitado por uma Organização Não-Governamental. As considerações finais sinalizam que: refazer os seus vínculos de afeto, rever e modificar sua dinâmica familiar e romper com a violência doméstica ocorreram a partir do rompimento do pacto do silêncio, ao estabelecer relações para além do convívio familiar. / Domestic violence against children and adolescents is considered as multifaceted phenomenon that is concerned to relations with power misuse among persons that would establish kinship and/or living together affective ties and they do not act like this. Its domestic violence manifestation locus has been the family which the adults fathers and mothers, i.e. parents, are themselves authors in, this violence subjects and producers, while the children and adolescents have, for their side, have been the persons that live under domestic violence situation. This is a familiar drama that has been framed within the collective world, transverse culture, economy, religion and politics. It is in this scenario that this work has been developed. Guided by a qualitative nature methodology, it this work aims at understanding the way families, within a domestic violence situation, attended by a Non-Governmental Organization, break through this scenario. Five families, constituted by adults, children and adolescents, all of themselves social actors that dwell in Recife city and its Recifes Metropolitan Regions have been participants in this research. The used instrument was the semistructured interview with questions concerning the domestic violence rupture against children and adolescents. The collected data have been subdued to a Content Analysis, aiming at identifying the senses that embody four thematic axes: identified violences, ties, affection and power relations, familiar dynamics and rupture process and ways
toward to breaking out. Through material analysis, collected in the interviews, it has been identified domestic physical and psychological violence presence within families, being the woman and the mother these violences against her sons and daughters principal author. However, which attracts full attention among the researched families in the fact that the domestic violence rupture starts from the authors themselves, as they break out with the silence pact and start speaking about it, revealing the violence they have lived through and they have spoken out in a discussion group, constituted by women, which was dully made easy by a Non-Governmental Organization. The final considerations signal that: remaking their affection ties, reviewing and modifyind their familiar dynamics and breaking out with the domestic violence happened departing the silence pact rupture, as they establish relations further beyond their familiar living together.

Partner abuse: Health consequences to women.Warren, Ann Marie 12 1900 (has links)
Intimate partner violence is endemic in the United States. According to the American Medical Association (1992), one-fifth to one-third of women will sustain violence from a partner or ex-partner in their lifetime. The relevant literature was organized by ICD-9-CM categories. This study examined the health consequences of partner abuse in a sample of community women using a sample consisting of 564 women in three ethnic groups. Because prior research has failed to account for variations by type of abuse on health consequences, this study assessed psychological abuse, violence and sexual aggression by women's partners. To determine whether or not different types of abuse had an effect on women's health, hierarchical regression analyses were conducted. The regression equations were calculated for women within each ethnic group to facilitate identification of similarities and differences and to control for ethnic differences in risk for specific diseases. The results were consistent with past research on health consequences of abuse and extended the prior literature by showing that psychological abuse had a pervasive effect on health conditions, distress and use of health care resources. Additionally, ethnic differences emerged. As expected, ethnicity appeared to function as a moderator. Clinical implications and recommendations are made for future research, suggesting the development of a new assessment tool for partner abuse screening.

Från tystnad till dialog : En kvalitativ studie om kvinnors upplevelser av mötet med professionella efter utsatthet av psykiskt våld / From Silence to Dialogue : A Qualitative Study on Women's Experiences in Interactions with Professionals Following Exposure to Psychological ViolenceÖlmez, Damla, Alaga, Lilian January 2024 (has links)
The purpose of the study is to investigate women’s experiences with psychological violence in intimate partner relationships in order to understand how they view their situation based on interactions with their environment and authority representatives. By highlighting this subject, the ambition was to expand knowledge to professionals who meet women in the targeted group, due to knowledge gaps and lack of awareness among professionals regarding how psychological violence affects women. A qualitative approach was used by reading seven autobiographies by women with experience with psychological violence to capture the women’s subjective experiences. The results were analyzed through content analysis which means that common themes were selected from each autobiography by a reading schedule to form a coding scheme. The results showed that the women were exposed to psychological violence in the form of controlling behaviors, isolation and the violence was alternated with warmth and love. The women share experiences regarding the expression and consequences of the psychological violence, while they share differences about interactions with the environment and authorities that contain both positive and negative experiences. The environment was shown to be vital for the woman's opportunities to leave the violent relationship. However, dilemmas may arise for friends and family to help the woman because they may feel codependent, which results in them feeling hopeless. This concludes that professionals and the women’s environment need more knowledge regarding how psychological violence manifests itself, its consequences and how the women normalizes the violence in order to understand the women’s conditions and help them break free from factors that are maintaining the violence. KEY WORDS: psychological abuse, intimate partner violence, effects on mental health, help seeking, men’s violence against women, professional approach

The physical and emotional victimisation of the male partner within a heterosexual marriage or cohabitating relationship : an explorative studyBarkhuizen, Merlyn 06 1900 (has links)
This study aimed at exploring the impact of emotional and physical abuse that a male partner experiences “at the hands” of his female partner within a marriage or cohabitating relationship. This is accomplished by giving each respondent a “voice” with which he shares his victimisation experiences. Each case is individually analysed and interpreted according to an integrated systems model of abuse of the male victim of domestic violence which forms the theoretical foundation for this study.
Through a process of in-depth personal interviews with the participants, researcher was able to compile a qualitative study, using the purposive snow ball sampling method. This information was used in collaboration with supportive literature to assist researcher in gaining a deep understanding of this form of domestic violence.
It is hoped that this study will contribute to further research initiatives with regards to the male victim of domestic violence in South Africa. It is also researcher’s aim to inform victimology students and the helping professions about male battering and the unique circumstances surrounding it. / Criminology / Thesis (D. Litt. et Phil.

Managing the phenomenon of Sexual harassment in the manufacturing industryKölkenbeck-Ruh, Rudolph Karl 30 June 2003 (has links)
All companies have strategic assets comprising financial capital, physical capital, human capital and organisational capital which, when effectively utilised, contribute to the competitive advantage necessary to survive in a globalised economy. The manifestation of adverse factors in a company will impact detrimentally on the performance of these strategic assets. Since the 1980s, one factor has become prominent in the management of a company’s human capital, namely sexual harassment.
Sexual harassment constitutes behaviour of a sexual nature that leads to, and perpetuates, a working environment in which it becomes unpleasant to work, and if allowed to go unchecked, will lead to the underperformance of the company’s human capital. Besides the cost of litigation associated with sexual harassment, companies are confronted with the more troubling and subtle costs arising out of the psychological and physiological harm to both victims and co-workers. The psychological and physiological effects manifest themselves in symptoms such as depression, frustration, decreased self-esteem and fatigue which, in turn, lead to decreased productivity and increased absenteeism. Accordingly, in an effort to gain the competitive advantage to survive in a globalised economy, companies must manage the phenomenon of sexual harassment in the workplace.
The existing theoretical principles relating to the management of sexual harassment in the workplace have been analysed in depth and a model developed to satisfy this need. This model was subsequently used to determine to what extent sexual harassment management is taking place within companies affiliated to the Steel and Engineering Industries Federation of South Africa (SEIFSA).
Various informative findings resulted from the investigation, amongst which were the lack of a proper sexual harassment policy within companies, the lack of proper training of employees regarding the occurrence of this phenomenon in the workplace, and the absence of proper formal/informal complaints procedures.
It thus became evident that the management of sexual harassment in these companies – despite the Government’s Code of Good Practice on the Handling of Sexual Harassment Cases – had not been fully established and that there is a need for guidelines in this regard. / Business Management / D.

An explorative study of the implementation of the Domestic Violence Act 116 of 1998 by the South African Police ServiceVan Niekerk, Teresa 12 August 2019 (has links)
In this study, the research problem sought to explore the degree of implementation of the Domestic Violence Act 116 of 1998 by members of the South African Police Service (SAPS). The Domestic Violence Act clearly stipulates the responsibilities of members of the South African Police Service in terms of the policing and management of domestic violence.
Data was collected by means of a literature study and individual interviews conducted with SAPS members at the station level. These police officials are responsible for implementing the provisions set out in the DVA. The researcher also drew on her investigative experience in the SAPS, including the investigation of domestic violence. In addition, the researcher conducted a comprehensive literature study of national legislation, internal SAPS policies and directives that govern and promote the regulation of domestic violence in South Africa, the policing of domestic violence, media and newspaper reports as well as library resources and international studies.
The findings of the research indicate that participants had a diverse understanding of domestic violence. This study also serves as testimony that the majority of the participants perceived and experienced the implementation of the DVA by the SAPS in various ways. However, participants understand their role and responsibilities to efficiently implement the provisions of the DVA. It was further determined that most of the participants knew their responsibilities regarding record keeping in incidences of domestic violence, and that members of the SAPS knew the procedure to follow in order to serve protection orders. It is, however, questionable whether they will be able to do so when necessary as most of them have not served it themselves as there are specific members at the station level who have been designated the duty of serving protection orders. However, it became evident that SAPS members are confronted with various challenges, at the station level, which hinder the proper implementation of the DVA.
The recommendations made in this study may provide the SAPS with knowledge regarding the challenges and shortcomings that police officials experience in effectively implementing the provisions set out in the DVA, the role and responsibilities of SAPS members to efficiently implement the DVA, as well as the training and resources necessary to effectively execute the DVA. / Police Practice / M.
