Exploring Resilience A Qualitative Study of an Intervention After Intimate Partner Violence

What this Trial Is About

Researchers are exploring how women who have experienced intimate partner violence perceive a resilience-based intervention offered at an outpatient clinic. The study aims to understand patients' life situations, their resilience, self-perceived needs, and how well the intervention meets those needs through qualitative interviews. This observational study is conducted by Uppsala University and focuses on psychological resilience and domestic violence exposure. Participants in the study are women enrolled in the EMBER intervention at the NCK outpatient clinic. They take part in a single, semi-structured, in-person interview lasting about 60 minutes. The interview uses a set of guided questions to explore their experiences with the intervention and their personal circumstances. The sessions are audio-recorded and transcribed for detailed thematic analysis. During the study, researchers assess patients' experiences and needs related to the intervention at the time of enrollment. The primary outcome is the patients' reported experiences of the EMBER intervention, while secondary outcomes focus on their needs and resilience. The total participation involves one interview session, with no further treatment or follow-up specified in the study details.
