Kvinnors uppnående av posttraumatic growth efter en intim våldsam partnerrelation. En studie om formell hjälp och växande efter trauma
(2022) PSYK11 20221Department of Psychology
- Abstract
- The current study aimed to examine whether women in Sweden who had been in an intimate partner violence (IPV) relationship reached posttraumatic growth (PTG), and if the frequency and level of reaching PTG differed for women who had received formal help compared to women who had not received formal help. The study also examined whether there was a difference in level of PTG depending on which type of formal help the women had received. The data was collected through a digital self-report survey. A total of 166 women took part in the study. The results showed that 69.3% (n = 115) reached a moderate degree of PTG or higher and that there was a difference in PTG between those women who had received formal help and those who had not received...

On the other hand, there was no difference in PTG depending on which type of formal help the women had received. The majority of the women in the present study who had lived in an IPV- relationship reached a moderate degree of PTG or higher. Those who had received formal help reached PTG to a greater extent and a higher level than those who had not received formal help, and three types of formal help led to PTG to a similar level. Studies within the research area are important, and further research is necessary to develop and broaden the area. (Less)
- Abstract (Swedish)
- Den aktuella studien ämnade undersöka huruvida kvinnor i Sverige som varit i en intim våldsam partnerrelation (IPV) uppnådde posttraumatic growth (PTG) samt om uppnåendet och nivån av PTG skiljde sig mellan kvinnor som fått formell hjälp och kvinnor som inte fått formell hjälp. Studien undersökte även om det fanns en skillnad i nivå av PTG beroende på vilken typ av formell hjälp som kvinnorna fått. Datainsamling skedde genom en nätbaserad självuppskattningsenkät. I studien deltog totalt 166 kvinnor. Resultaten visade att 69.3% (n = 115) uppnådde en måttlig grad av PTG eller högre och att det fanns en skillnad i PTG hos kvinnor som fått formell hjälp gentemot de som inte fått formell hjälp. Däremot var det ingen skillnad i nivå av PTG... (More)

Däremot var det ingen skillnad i nivå av PTG beroende på vilken typ av formell hjälp som kvinnorna fått. Majoriteten av kvinnor i studien som har levt i en IPV-relation uppnådde en måttlig grad av PTG eller högre. De som fått formell hjälp uppnådde PTG i större utsträckning och till en högre nivå än de som inte fått formell hjälp och tre typer av formell hjälp ledde till PTG till liknande nivå. Studier inom forskningsområdet är viktiga och det behövs vidare forskning för att utveckla och bredda området. (Less)
