Rezumat

Violența împotriva femeilor este o problemă cu implicații personale, sociale și economice semnificative, care apare în toate țările, indiferent de nivelul economic, cultură sau religie. Violența împotriva femeilor este adesea împărțită în trei categorii: fizică, sexuală și psihologică, fie că este autodirijată, interpersonală sau colectivă. Consecințele pentru victime sunt atât fizice, cât și psihologice. Deși nu este la fel de larg recunoscută și ușor de vizualizat de ceilalți, boala cronică poate fi, de asemenea, o consecință a violenței, cu impact pe termen lung asupra vieții victimei, acționând ca o amintire a ceea ce s-a întâmplat chiar și mult timp după ce abuzul a încetat. Această lucrare este o analiză narativă care își propune să evidențieze legătura dintre violența împotriva femeilor și bolile somatice cronice. În studiile care abordează și evidențiază această relație, metodele de cercetare utilizate ridică întrebări importante cu privire la reprezentativitatea rezultatelor obținute și la măsura în care acestea pot fi comparate, în special în cazul cercetărilor care abordează violența partenerului intim. Subliniem lacunele în cunoștințe și propunem recomandări pentru studii viitoare și programe de intervenție psihoterapeutică pentru victimele violenței.
