Filter by:This study is a randomized controlled counseling intervention with pre-test, post-test and control groups. After obtaining informed consent from 80 women affected by domestic violence that referred to the health centers of the villages covered by Al-Kooh Mashhad Health Center (Mashhad Al-Kooh Health Center, Michan, Mosleh Abad) and Mashhad Al-Kobeh Health Center, and are eligible to enter Rct are. A woman who has been subjected to domestic violence is someone who has obtained at least one score on the (cts2) questionnaire . Then, these people are randomly divided into two groups of intervention (n = 40) and control (n = 40). The members of the intervention group in groups of 10 are treated in 8 sessions of 90 minutes once a week based on "acceptance and commitment treatment" based on Hayes (2006) approach by a trained consultant (researcher) in Mashhad AL-koubeh Health Center. The control group also receives 8 counseling sessions once a week by the same "health education" consultant in groups of 10 at the same center. One week after the end of the eighth session and one month later, the questionnaires are completed again by trained questioners for both groups. The instruments studied in this study include demographic questionnaire, conflict resolution tactics questionnaire (cts 2) and resilience questionnaire (Connor-Davidson).

ach year, it is estimated that an average of approximately 219,000 women in France suffer physical and/or sexual violence at the hands of their partner or ex-partner. These figures do not take into account other types of violence such as psychological or economic violence. Domestic violence has a major impact on the physical, sexual and psychological health of women victims. For example, the prevalence of post-traumatic stress disorder in these women varies between 33 and 84%, with an average prevalence of 61%, compared with only 2.2% in the French population as a whole. Multidisciplinary medical, social and legal support for these women is essential. In France, there are major territorial disparities in terms of the distribution of facilities for victims of domestoc violence, and not all women victims have the same access to care depending on their place of residence. The Maison des Femmes in St Denis has been open since 2016. It offers a unique range of sanitary, social and judicial services through cooperation with police and justice departments, for women who have been subjected to any type of violence. This facility is unique in France, and the number of consultations continues to increase, and was more than 8,500 in 2018. The Maison des Femmes model is intended to be exported to other departments, but first the model needs to be validated, beyond its obvious attractiveness (illustrated by the number of consultations and the fact that it attracts women from throughout the Ile de France region) by comparing it to other facilities in terms of its effect on the management of the women. This is a cross-sectional prevalence study that estimates the frequency of post-traumatic stress disorder among women who are victims of domestic violence who used the services offered at the Maison des Femmes or other dedicated structures, at the initial consultation and 6 months later.

Intimate partner violence (IPV) is a major public health concern. Worldwide, 1 in 3 women have experienced domestic abuse/ violence in their lifetime. In most cases, family lawyers, advocates are first contact before the police. If the children are involved, finding the legal options become the priority for women before leaving the abuser.

Women suffer constant trauma and psychological distress being in emotional and mentally abusive relationship.

The purpose of this study is to explore the feasibility of a novel intervention approach for fathers arrested for an initial episode of intimate partner violence (IPV) by systematically developing an alternate version of a standard, statewide, court-mandated Family Violence Education Program (FVEP) to focus specifically on the importance of fathering within a cognitive-behavioral intervention to be called Fatherhood Focused FVEP (F3).
Violence has immediate effects on women's health, which in some cases, is fatal. Physical, mental and behavioural health consequences can also persist long after the violence has stopped. Violence against women and girls occurs in every country and culture and is rooted in social and cultural attitudes and norms that privilege men over women and boys over girls. Research consistently finds that the more severe the abuse, the greater its impact on women's physical and mental health. In addition, the negative health consequences can persist long after abuse has stopped.Present work shares the impact of arsha vidya counselling for women who has been victim of violence.
The overall objective of this project is to adapt and enhance HoMBReS (Hispanic Men Building Respect, Education, and Safety within Families /Hombres Manteniendo Respeto, Educacion y Seguridad de Familia), a Center for Disease Control (CDC)-identified best-evidence HIV behavioral intervention designed to reduce substance abuse, family violence, and HIV/AIDS (SAVA) among sexually active heterosexual Latino seasonal farmworkers (LSFWs) in rural areas.
Intimate partner violence (IPV) is a common occurrence in the U.S. Victims of IPV are at an elevated risk of experiencing a variety of physical and mental health consequences, which frequently co-occur and act synergistically, placing victims at a higher risk for revictimization. Experts recommend that interventions for victims of IPV focus on helping victims attain more balanced emotions and behaviors, rather than treating specific nosologies. One transdiagnostic treatment, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), focused on helping individuals gain more balanced emotions and behaviors, has shown success in treating victims of IPV. However, the DBT for IPV treatment protocol is not without it's limitations. Specifically, clients may need additional exposure to the skills and concepts taught in the treatment. Yet, additional exposure to the skills facilitated though a therapist is difficult to do given the limited budgets for services for victims of IPV and the client provider gap. In order to address the client provider gap, increase exposure to the skills, and to increase skills acquisition and generalization, video intervention adjuncts (VIAs) have been developed to serve as treatment adjuncts for the DBT for IPV skills group. The objective of the current study is to conduct a randomized control trial examining the treatment utility and participant acceptability of the two-day DBT for IPV skills group plus the VIAs versus treatment as usual (the two-day DBT for IPV skills group without the VIAs). The following hypotheses will be examined: 1) those in the experimental VIA condition will experience treatment gains above and beyond those in the control (treatment as usual) condition; 2) those in the experimental VIA condition will view the VIAs as acceptable; and 3) those in the experimental VIA condition will report a greater frequency of using the skills than those in the control condition.
