Callaghan, Jane E. M., Joanne H. Alexander, Judith Sixsmith, and Lisa Chiara Fellin. "Beyond “Witnessing”: Children’s Experiences of Coercive Control in Domestic Violence and Abuse."

Children’s experiences and voices are underrepresented in academic literature and professional practice around domestic violence and abuse. The project “Understanding Agency and Resistance Strategies” (UNARS) addresses this absence, through direct engagement with children. We present an analysis from interviews with 21 children in the United Kingdom (12 girls and 9 boys, aged 8-18 years), about their experiences of domestic violence and abuse, and their responses to this violence. These interviews were analyzed using interpretive interactionism. Three themes from this analysis are presented: (a) “Children’s experiences of abusive control,” which explores children’s awareness of controlling behavior by the adult perpetrator, their experience of that control, and its impact on them; (b) “Constraint,” which explores how children experience the constraint associated with coercive control in situations of domestic violence; and (c) “Children as agents,” which explores children’s strategies for managing controlling behavior in their home and in family relationships. The article argues that, in situations where violence and abuse occur between adult intimate partners, children are significantly affected, and can be reasonably described as victims of abusive control. Recognizing children as direct victims of domestic violence and abuse would produce significant changes in the way professionals respond to them, by (a) recognizing children’s experience of the impact of domestic violence and abuse; (b) recognizing children’s agency, undermining the perception of them as passive “witnesses” or “collateral damage” in adult abusive encounters; and (c) strengthening professional responses to them as direct victims, not as passive witnesses to violence.

The care service for women victims of violence constitutes a risk space for the manifestation of burnout syndrome and secondary post-traumatic stress disorder caused by listening to traumatic experiences. Therefore, this article aims to present a comparative picture of cross-cultural research carried out in Brazil and Spain with 32 subjects. The objectives are: to describe the work conditions, investigate the experience of attending to female victims of violence, and observe the self-care practices the professional group carried out at the personal, professional, collective, and institutional levels. The analysis of data from the Brazilian context was performed with Iramuteq through the descending hierarchical classification, which resulted in five classes, namely: assistance to women victims of violence; conflicts, violence, and professional activity; authors of harassment practices and working conditions; self-care personnel; managing obstacles in the work environment. The results collected from the Spanish professionals were also subjected to the same data analysis, resulting in five classes: trajectory, professional performance and working conditions; assistance to women victims of violence and forms of self-care; complaints about conflict and violence; personal self-care; forms of harassment and conflict. The elaboration that confronted the categories of the two surveys identified similarities regarding the subjective experience and distancing in the self-care characteristics undertaken by Brazilian and Spanish professionals. This study proposes to reflect on the institutional dynamics of these environments.

Background: Violence against medical assistants (residents) by colleagues is a serious problem at educational hospitals that has not been sufficiently examined. The present study was conducted to determine the prevalence, risk factors, and types of violence perpetrated by colleagues against medical assistants. Methods: In a cross-sectional study conducted at two large tertiary referral educational hospitals, the study questionnaires were distributed among 480 healthcare professionals to investigate their experiences of violence. Results: Of 280 responders, 162 residents (57.9%) reported a history of violence or aggression. Of these, nearly 50% had experienced pure psychological violence, and 16.7% had been physically abused. The prevalence of victimization was high among the residents of the neurosurgery, orthopedic, and obstetric departments (90%, 88%, and 85%, respectively). Conclusion: Harassment experience was more common among the surgical residents than the internal medicine residents because of the former’s high level of work stress. Senior residents or fellowship residents were the main abusers. Losing professional selfesteem, decreasing job satisfaction, and dropping out of school were the main adverse outcomes of violence experienced by the victims.

Introduction. Nowadays, the importance of nursing science is increasing in the organization, execution, and development of health services. Nurses working in the health institutions encounter countless tragedies while performing healthcare services to patients and families where uninterrupted service is provided 7 days 24 hours. Biopsychosocial changes seen in individuals because of violence in the working environment are silent screams. It is necessary to share feelings and experiences to make the silent scream audible.
Aim. In this article, it is aimed to contribute to narrative studies, to draw attention to the violence experienced by nurses in the working environment and the insufficiency of the measures taken by examining the patient stories of two nurses with clinical experience.
Method. In the study, two nurses with a professional experience of five years or more were asked to write one of the most memorable anecdotes they have experienced in their professional life. The anecdotes were analyzed through the "Novel, Story, Epic, Tale, Diary, Memory, Mythology and Analogous Rating Scale".
Results. Three sub-problems are discussed in this research. Data related to each sub-problem were collected and analyzed. In these two narratives, it was determined that the patients behaved implausible in some situations and their problematic behavior was the dominant common feature. In the first narrative, the categories can be classified under "Behavior of the patients - solutions of the nurses" and in the second narrative under "Emotions of the patient - Emotions of the nurses". The primary point to be reached in both stories can be considered as follows: "The professional approach of healthcare professionals towards challenging patient behaviors they confront." The incidence of violence could be reduced if the nurses have adequate professional knowledge, experience, and skills and inform patients about the procedures.
Conclusion. In this study, it is emphasized that sufficient measures are not taken in violence against healthcare professionals in Turkey, that seriously affects employee health and negatively affects the functionality of health services in terms of quality.

Background: Horizontal violence, defined in the literature as ‘interpersonal conflict between two nurses at the same hierarchical levels in organizations’, often associated with bullying, affects the well-being of nurses, care recipients and the professional image of nursing and the organization due to increased turnover. One in every three newly graduated nurses is a victim of horizontal violence, although they do not always know how to define it. Aim: To investigate the direct and indirect experiences of horizontal violence in newly graduated nurses as well as to shed light on the phenomenon, on its awareness and recognition. Methods: A qualitative phenomenological study was conducted between September and October 2018 with newly graduated nurses, with a work experience ranging between 6 months and 3 years. The interviews were conducted face-to-face, consisting of a first open general question, followed by semi-structured questions. Ethical considerations: The study was conducted in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki, and the protocol was approved by the Institution Review Board. Results: From the analysis of the interviews of the 21 participants, four main themes were identified: the ‘enemies’, that is those who exercised violence, the ‘weapons’ used by them to exercise violence, the ‘effects’ and the types of ‘armor’ identified to protect themselves. Discussion: Horizontal violence is rarely recognized by newly graduated nurses, even though our sample had directly or indirectly experienced horizontal violence. Tackling the phenomenon starting from the undergraduate degree courses, focusing on effective support and more protection by the organization leaders were the silent requests that emerged from this study. Conclusion: Preventing horizontal violence is important for nurses’ professional and private well-being, for professional conduct and for the quality of care provided to patients.

This community-based observational study of 1,325 women seen for antenatal care examined how women in Pakistan define violence against women (VAW), with an emphasis on domestic violence, what an acceptable response to violence is, reasons for remaining silent, and whether participants are willing to disclose incidents of domestic violence to others. Nearly half of the study participants believed that physical violence was VAW. Verbal abuse, controlling behavior by the husband, conflict with in-laws, overburdening domestic work, and threatening to leave or remarry were also considered VAW. However, only five respondents (0.4%) considered sexual abuse to be VAW. Most women who screened positive for domestic violence responded by remaining silent or verbal fighting back. None sought professional help. Women who decided to remain silent feared that the abuse would escalate or that responding would not help them. Women cited social stigma and concerns about the impact of the violence on children as reasons for not disclosing violent incidents to others or seeking professional help. Women’s lack of autonomy further reduced their ability to take steps against violence. Although societal norms, particularly patriarchal beliefs and women’s subordination to men, likely explain women’s tolerance of abuse, their recognition of physical abuse as violence indicates that they do not necessarily believe it is always justified. Educational interventions to drive changes in the social norms around gender violence along with effective and enforceable legal measures are likely required to ensure women’s safety.

Primary care professionals (PCPs) are increasingly being expected to identify and respond to family and sexual violence as the chronic nature and severity of the long-term health impacts are increasingly recognized. This discussion paper reports the authors’ expert opinion from their experiences running international workshops to prevent trauma among those who work and research sexual violence. It describes the burnout and secondary traumatic stress literature which provides the evidence supporting their work. Implications for practicing basic training in response to trauma and ongoing education are a key area for responding to family violence and preventing professional stress. A professional culture that supports and values caring well for those who have experienced family violence as well as “caring for the carer” is needed. Working in teams and having more support systems in place are likely to protect PCPs from secondary traumatic stress and burnout. Undergraduate and postgraduate training of PCPs to develop trauma knowledge and the skills to ask about and respond to family violence safely are essential. In addition, the healthcare system, workplace, and the individual practitioner support structures need to be in place to enable PCPs to provide safe and effective long-term care and access to other appropriate services for those who have experienced family violence.

Background: Violence in hospitals is a significant problem and it has a negative impact on healthcare professionals. Aims: We sought to identify the occurrence, characteristics and consequences of violence against healthcare professional in Morocco and propose preventive measures. Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted in 2020 among medical and paramedical healthcare professionals at a 1548-bed Moroccan university hospital that comprises 5 hospitals. Interviews were conducted using an anonymous, structured and self-administered questionnaire. The data were analysed using SPSS version 10.0. Results: Our study included 480 health workers, 61% were women and 61% were paramedics. Their mean age was 29.6±5 years and the median professional experience was 3 years. The average frequency of violence was 76% (95% CI: 72–79); verbal violence was 99%, psychological violence 34%, and physical violence 21%. More women (62%) experienced violence than men and more paramedics (83%) than medics. The perpetrators of this violence were mostly (77%) family members of the patients. The workers estimated underreporting of violence at 38%. Conclusion: Healthcare professionals are frequently exposed to violence. Reporting of such violence should be encouraged to enhance prevention and proper management by health workers and the responsible authorities.

The authors explored experiences of stigma from professional helpers toward survivors of intimate partner violence in two related studies with a combined sample of 231 participants. Qualitative interview and quantitative survey data were analyzed with content analysis procedures using an a priori coding strategy. Results suggest that survivors felt stigmatized by mental health professionals, attorneys and judges, health care professionals, law enforcement, professionals in the employment or education systems, parenting-related professionals, as well as friends and family. The most frequently occurring stigma categories were feeling dismissed, denied, and blamed. Participants cited the most common sources of stigma occurred from interactions with professionals in the court system and law enforcement officers. Implications for future research and practice are discussed.

The study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of violence against healthcare workers in emergency departments and identify solution approaches. The research, utilizing a descriptive design, was conducted with 149 health workers employed in the emergency units of a research hospital. Data were collected using a survey form constructed based on the literature. Participants' 92.6% experienced some form of violence, with 92.8% of these individuals subjected to verbal abuse. The main causes of violence were identified as the perpetrator justifying their behaviour (42.0%), refusal of requests such as prescriptions or reports (50.0%), and dissatisfaction with treatment (41.3%). 40.6% of health workers filed a code white report, and 36.2% stated that no action was taken against the aggressor.83.9% of health workers indicated that legislation, 70.5% code white, and 55.0% reported inadequate security measures. Health workers suggested implementing deterrent penalties (18.1%) and increasing security measures (17.4%) to reduce violence. A significant difference was found between professional experience and exposure to violence, as well as the types of violence encountered. Additionally, an important significant difference was identified between the profession and the gender of the perpetrator of violence. While physicians and other professional groups are generally subjected to violence by men, nurses and midwives experience violence from both women and men, as well as both genders together (p<0.05). The study found that emergency department health workers face high rates of violence and existing measures are inadequate. In this context, it is recommended to review existing legal regulations, ensure continuous and visible security, and enhance the effectiveness of code white protocols.

Background Gender-based domestic violence has gained significant visibility in recent years and is currently considered a priority in the field of public health. This preliminary, qualitative study explores how social norms and professional regulations impact the attitudes and practices of health workers and criminal justice professionals regarding domestic violence against women in Brazil and Norway. Methods A total of 16 semi-structured, in-depth interviews were conducted; eight in two different cities in Brazil, and eight in two different cities in Norway. In each country, four health workers and four criminal justice professionals were interviewed. We focused on the participants’ experiences with cases of domestic violence, their perceptions of their professional responsibilities, as well as the challenges they encounter. We analysed the transcribed interviews using a focused open coding process. Findings The participants ranged in age from 32 to 59. All of them worked, with and without supervision, in cases involving domestic violence victims. In all four study locations, the professionals felt that they had not received enough training in how to handle domestic violence. Some medical doctors reported becoming personally detached over time, especially when the victims did not admit that their injuries were due to domestic violence. In the Brazilian cities, some professionals reported that women who were beaten by their partners were themselves responsible for the situation. This was not the case in the Norwegian cities. Both countries have laws and regulations that have been put in place to guide professionals who provide services to victims of domestic violence. For many reasons, professionals do not always follow these regulations. For the Norwegian health workers, confidentiality was an important factor explaining why they did not always report suspected domestic violence to the police. For the Brazilian health workers, the fear of having to testify in court, and thus potentially being vulnerable to violence themselves, was a factor that made some not want to involve the justice system. In both countries, the participating professionals reported the need for closer collaboration with social workers and mental health specialists, since domestic violence is closely related to both social norms in the communities and to individual psychological factors. Conclusion Individual characteristics and experiences, the emphasis on confidentiality and the fear of repercussions may affect the way health and criminal justice workers perceive and deal with domestic violence cases. The findings in the study thus indicate that personal psychological factors and social norms concerning the acceptability of domestic violence are critical risk factors for women, and that a multi-professional approach is needed. The findings from this preliminary study can serve as background for larger and more comprehensive studies of how professionals handle cases of domestic violence.

Violence against social workers is an international issue, yet research worldwide is limited. Social work is a predominantly female profession making violence against social workers an issue of gender-based violence (GBV). Using a post-feminist lens, this paper examines the violence experienced by social workers in the workplace and its impacts on their personal and professional lives. More specifically, the objectives of this study were to 1) critically understand social workers’ experiences of violence in the workplace violence; 2) critically review peer-reviewed and grey literature to examine how intersectionality intersect to escalate the vulnerability of social workers to different forms of GBV; and 3) identify significant gaps and priorities for future policies, practices and research on GBV in the social worker profession. Twenty-four peer-reviewed and grey literature were selected for the study. Three themes emerged through this critical review 1) definition of violence; 2) rates of violence; 3) reporting violence; and 4) impacts of violence. The paucity of research in this area highlights the need for increased research in experiences of violence within the social work workplace, as well as how social work education prepares social work students for the potential of violence within the field of social work.

Background: Domestic violence (DV) or intimate partner violence has been declared as public health epidemic by the WHO. Healthcare professionals (HCPs) have an important role in addressing the victims of DV or abuse and are the first to offer them care. Aim of study was to assess the attitude and professional experiences of HCPs concerning DV and their female patients. Methods: The study is conducted using pre-structured questionnaire and via google form sent to the study subjects through a WhatsApp link on their mobiles. The study population were comprises consultants, resident doctors and nurses. The study subjects’ response about receiving adequate training and their attitude whether enquiry about DV was considered an essential part of their job were the main outcomes. Results: A total of 392 responses were received. Overall, 50.3% of HCPs agreed that the incidence of DV has increased in the covid era and only 49.2% believe that enquiry about DV is an essential part of their job; 49.0% of HCPs agreed that they are comfortable while asking questions pertaining to DV. Only 17.4% of HCPs received adequate support during training period in regards to evaluating patients with DV. Conclusions: Training of all HCPs to identify and manage patients with DV is needed in order to deal efficiently with this public health problem. The attitude of HCPs towards DV needs to be addressed.

This study explored the lived experience of hope for domestic violence support workers. A hermeneutic-phenomenological approach was used to collect and analyze the experiences of six professional women, aged 37 through 69. Four themes, each with subthemes, emerged from the findings: Hope is visceral reveals the phenomenology of hope as experienced through bodily sensations, reactions, and emotions. Hope is contextual describes how experiences of hope are enhanced by personal perspectives and social environments. Hope is mutual reveals how interactions with other people inspire hope. Hope is a journey illustrates how hope evolves over the years to reveal new understandings of what it means to live hopefully. The article discusses implications for counseling, counselor education, and service provider organizations and presents suggestions for future research.

Research on sexual violence and related support services access has mainly focused on female victims; there is still a remarkable lack of research on men who experience sexual violence. Research demonstrates that people who both self-identify as men and are members of sexual-orientation minority populations are at higher risk of sexual violence. They are also less likely to either report or seek support services related to such experiences. The present study is an exploratory one aimed at filling the gap in the literature and better understanding how men, both straight and gay as well as cisgender and transgender, conceptualize, understand, and seek help related to sexual violence. A sample of 32 men was recruited on-line and participated in either a one-on-one in-depth interview ( N = 19) or one of two focus group discussions ( N = 13). All interviews and groups were audiotaped, professionally transcribed and coded using NVivo 9 qualitative software. The present analysis focused on barriers to and facilitators of support service access. Emergent and cross-cutting themes were identified and presented, with an emphasis on understanding what factors may prevent disclosure of a sexual violence experience and facilitate seeking support services and/or professional help. Through this analysis, the research team aims to add knowledge to inform the development of tools to increase service access and receipt, for use by both researchers and service professionals. Although this study contributes to the understanding of the issue of men’s experiences of sexual violence, more research with diverse populations is needed.

Objective: This paper aims to explore young women’s experiences of sexual violence in intimate relationships during adolescence. Method: The sample consisted of eight young women (17–23 years of age) who were individually interviewed about their experiences of sexual violence in an intimate, heterosexual relationship. The interviews were analysed using interpretative phenomenological analysis. Results: The analysis highlights how the young women experienced the relationship as binding, in spite of the violence and rape. Positive emotions and limited sexual experience kept them from breaking up. The women’s experiences of sexual violence created shame, low self-esteem and confusion about who they were. Confirmation of the abuse and clarification of blame in new relationships were crucial to the healing process. In summary, this study indicates that young women who experience sexual violence during adolescence can struggle to end the relationship. A growing need for autonomy may raise the threshold for seeking help. An ongoing exploration of social roles, norms and identity may create uncertainty about what is expected of them as sexual partners as well as feelings of confusion, shame and guilt brought about by the abuse. Implications: Helpers such as healthcare professionals and social workers who work with young people, are curious about intimate relationships generally, and ask specific and non-judgemental questions about experiences of sexual violence may lower the threshold for sharing experiences of sexual abuse and aid the healing process. Keywords: qualitative, sexual abuse, sexual violence, adolescence

This article builds on the results of a research project into the professional experience of seven academic women in universities and research centers in Catalonia, Spain. The aim of the Project was to explore the personal and professional experience of three generations of women in the process constituting their identity as university teachers, researchers and managers. The writing of their professional life histories has enabled us to investigate how they, as women, have become the types of higher education teachers, researchers and managers that they were becoming, and we wished to delve into the relationship between their personal experiences and the development of their professional careers. In this process, we have revealed the strategies of adaptation, resistance and creation developed by women, the forms of symbolic violence that they experience and the changes through which their careers have passed within the context of an institution that is still continuously revealed by different studies to be deeply discriminating and unequal for women.

Various acts of domestic violence are the reality that troubles family life in various social classes. This study seeks to investigate violence experienced by men among professional families and the causes of women to commit such act. This study deployed qualitative methods and conducted in-depth interviews of 53 informants. The finding of the study indicates that men not only experience single violence, but a variation of violence that occurred in professional families, such as physical, economic, verbal/psychological, and sexual violence. This study shows the triggers for women to commit violence against men among professional families are insecurity, jealousy, and inequality in socioeconomic status. Men are burdened with patriarchy and tend to be passive in reacting to the violence they experience. Masculinity makes male victims of violence suffer triple oppression: They become the victims; they are embarrassed because they get a negative stigma from the community for failing and not being able to lead their families; and when men become the victims, they ‘get punished’ because it is considered as ‘abnormal’ for men to become victims of violence. Men react to the violence committed by their wives by carrying out latent resistance, manifest resistance, and alienation.

Abstract: The objective of this study was to describe the working conditions of professionals who work in centers providing assistance to women victims of violence, to investigate the experience of female workers in caring for women victims of violence and to analyze the self-care practices of this professional group at the personal, professional, collective and institutional levels. Data were collected through the application of an interview script to 12 professionals who assist victims of violence against women in different care centers for this public in Aracaju and the interior of Sergipe. The five classes generated by the Descending Hierarchical Classification (DHC), generated by the Iramuteq analysis, pointed out five themes: care for women victims of violence, conflicts, violence and professional practice, authors of practice of aggression, personal self-care and handling obstacles in the work environment. In view of the results found, the strengthening of the public policy system is appointed as one of the pillars that reconfigure this reality.

Introduction: Although family violence has been identified as a major public health issue, it has received little attention in the chiropractic literature. Accordingly, this article provides a conceptual overview on family violence, discusses the role of chiropractors in its detection, and raises several issues germane to chiropractic education that deserve further attention in future chiropractic publications. Methods: A selective review of the empirical literature on family violence was conducted with a focus on issues relevant to chiropractic training and professional identity. Results: Extrapolating from the research, several models for medical training and continuing education have been proposed that emphasize a multidisciplinary, developmental approach to infusing knowledge, skill building, and mentored practice experiences into professional education experiences. Conclusion: As chiropractors become more mainstream portal-of-entry providers, there is a clear need to translate the didactics of family violence into the clinical setting. Clinical education may provide students the opportunity to master basic competencies for managing challenging family violence problems. The clinical environment may be appropriate for inculcating skills commensurate with those of other primary care providers. Yet, the extent to which training priorities and approaches extrapolated from other health care disciplines should be accepted wholesale by the chiropractic profession merits further discussion, including issues around the professional identity of chiropractic, the impact of accreditation standards and practice guidelines on actual professional practice behaviors, and the possible limits and unintended consequences associated with expanding the traditional chiropractic scope of practice from a specialty to a primary care profession.

Objectives: with regard to neglect, deprivation, false allegations, exposure to traumatic experiences, and other factors, it is reasonable to claim that domestic violence is a major contributor to child abuse in families. Domestic violence also affects the national economy and the probability of poverty. The legal definition of violence and cultural traditions play a significant role in how it is perceived. This study focuses on exploring domestic violence and social services to respond to domestic violence in families with children and examines multidisciplinary approach to domestic violence in families across Latvia, Lithuania, Slovakia and Nigeria. Materials and Methods: based on purposive sampling, 16 in-depth interviews were conducted with professionals from Lithuania, Latvia, Slovakia, and Nigeria who work with families and individuals who have experienced domestic violence. The data were analysed using ATLAS.ti 5.0 to generate themes and finalised by employing qualitative comparative analysis (QCA) with the software fsQCA 4.0. Results: data showed that several conditions impacted the effective intervention and prevention of domestic violence. Four of these conditions were identified as sufficient causal pathways for domestic violence: tradition for tolerance of violence, lack of or fuzzy national definition of domestic violence, cultural traditions, level of support for women’s empowerment, government policies addressing family violence, and multidisciplinary efforts of social intervention professionals. Conclusions. The observed level of violence tolerance provides some explanation for the low rate of self-reported domestic violence and rationale for a greater emphasis on human rights and dignity awareness. The multidisciplinary efforts of social intervention are evident in the services provided in Lithuania, Latvia, Slovakia, and Nigeria; there are professional referrals to little multidisciplinary collaboration in Nigeria. The example of Nigeria demonstrates that regulations exist to prevent domestic violence, but cultural traditions make it difficult for women to disclose abuse, resulting in many women suffering in silence.

Participatory methods, which rely heavily on community-based data collectors, are growing in popularity to deliver much-needed evidence on violence and mental health in low- and middle-income countries. These settings, along with local researchers, encounter the highest burden of violence and mental ill-health, with the fewest resources to respond. Despite increased focus on wellbeing for research participants and, to a lesser degree, professional researchers in such studies, the role-specific needs of community-based researchers receive scant attention. This co-produced paper draws insights from one group’s experience to identify rewards, challenges, and recommendations for supporting wellbeing and development of community-based researchers in sensitive participatory projects in low-resource settings. Twenty-one community-based researchers supporting a mixed-methods study on youth, violence and mental health in Sri Lanka submitted 63 reflexive structured journal entries across three rounds of data collection. We applied Attride-Stirling’s method for thematic analysis to explore peer researchers’ learning about research, violence and mental health; personal-professional boundaries; challenges in sensitive research; and experiences of support from the core team. Sri Lanka’s first study capturing experiences of diverse community-based researchers aims to inform the growing number of global health and development actors relying on such talent to deliver sensitive and emotionally difficult work in resource-limited and potentially volatile settings. Viewing participatory research as an opportunity for mutual learning among both community-based and professional researchers, we identify practice gaps and opportunities to foster respectful team dynamics and create generative and safe co-production projects for all parties. Intentional choices around communication, training, human and consumable resources, project design, and navigating instable research conditions can strengthen numerous personal and professional capacities across teams. Such individual and collective growth holds potential to benefit short- and long-term quality of evidence and inform action on critical issues, including violence and mental health, facing high-burden, low-resource contexts.

This study aimed to understand the experiences of elderly women seen in a reference outpatient clinic, regarding to the interpersonal violence suffered in their daily lives. A cross-sectional, qualitative, and exploratory cohort study was chosen, with elderly women seen in a outpatient clinic of a hospital of reference in Recife, from February to March 2022. Data were obtained through semi-structured interviews, audio-recorded, and later transcribed in a literal way. Data analysis was carried out using Minayo's thematic content analysis technique. The sample included 13 elderly women, with a mean age of 68.8 years. The categories revealed, from the perspective of the elderly, an increase in the occurrence of violence and its relationship with substance use and financial dependence. Furthermore, it was observed that healthcare professionals and support services are ill-prepared to identify violence and provide protection and care measures. It is understood that there is a long way to go in terms of legislation and professional practice guidelines in elder protection commissions.

Witnessing intimate partner violence (IPV) may have damaging effects on children’s well-being and development. How children understand IPV affects the risk of their developing negative outcomes. Talking with children about the violent episodes they have experienced can change their beliefs regarding their parents’ IPV, and therefore may also be a way to help them deal with these adverse experiences. The purpose of the current study was to use the children’s narratives to explore the relationship between how IPV was perceived by the children and their experience of talking about it. Interviews with 31 children between 9 and 13 years of age were analyzed using a thematic method. Two main groups of children were identified: children who described the violence as a horrifying experience and children who preferred not to think about the violence. The findings showed that children who described the violence as a horrifying experience perceived talking about the violence as a positive, yet sometimes distressing, experience that made a real difference in their lives; whereas, children who preferred not to think about the violence did not see much need to talk about it and benefit from talking about it. The study confirms previous research indicating that talking about IPV experiences sometimes leads to feelings of relief in children. Thereby, professionals play an important role by providing an appropriate setting to help children reduce their distressing feelings.

Purpose: World Health Organization (WHO) defines intimate partner violence (IPV) as physical, sexual or psychological harm caused by an intimate partner or ex-partner. There are few studies describing interpersonal violence (IPV) among physicians. Our study describes IPV experienced by U.S. physicians. Methods: This was a multicenter survey administered to 4 physician groups in 2015 to 2016. In total 400 respondents returned survey results. Measures included current IPV, childhood abuse, mental health, professional role, and demographics. Results: IPV was reported by 24% of respondents. The most frequent abuses reported were: verbal (15%), physical (8%) followed by sexual abuse (4%) and stalking (4%). Logistic regression model found that IPV was more likely to be reported by older participants (aged 66–89), those who experienced childhood abuse, working less than full time, and had been diagnosed with a personality disorder. Women and Asian Americans reported slightly higher IPV rates. Conclusions: Our study has implications for both medical education and intervention development. Universal screening and education that addresses clinical implications when treating peers who experience IPV are needed. Workplace interventions that consider unique physician characteristics and experiences are needed, as well as programs that support sustained recovery. This is the first survey to our knowledge that confirms that physicians experience IPV at a rate consistent or higher than the national level. We developed a standardized instrument to assess IPV in male and female physicians at various career stages. We also identified significant predictors that should be included in IPV screening of potential physician victims.

The objective of this research was to explore through interpretative phenomenological analysis on how psychotherapists understand and conceptualize women’s relationship experiences including those of intimacy and love with their abusive partners. In this study, 6 therapists were interviewed regarding women’s relationship experiences with abusive partners. The findings of this research challenge the notion that therapists can act as blank screens in therapy and has implications for psychological therapy, therapists, supervisors, training courses, services, and policymakers. These highlight the need for therapists, through self-reflection, supervision, continuous professional development, and personal therapy, to reflect on how they influence women’s disclosures of abusive experiences. The study supports the argument for a multitreatment approach with systemic understanding when working with women living with violence and abuse.

This article explores the interplay between my life and research on responsibility in the context of (past) collective violence and state repression in Romania, my country of origin. Reflecting on the five-year research process, I delve into my multiple and shifting positionalities during data collection, analysis, and presentation, pointing to the fluid identities of researchers along a continuum in which their backgrounds, professional roles, as well as dynamic negotiations in ‘the field’ and personal experiences intertwine and affect research at every stage. In particular, I explore the impact of my personal experience of loss and grief after the sudden death of my mother on my research, revealing its influence on reconstructing and writing about stories of violence. In doing so, research unfolds as a journey where personal and professional lives merge, showcasing knowledge production as an inherently subjective endeavor. Building on this, I advocate for recognizing the influence of emotions and personal experiences on narrative interpretations as well as for considering the intertwining between research and personal life’s as central facets of positionality and reflexivity.

To help families challenged by transgenerational problems, substance abuse, and violence, support strategies require professionals who understand their specific needs and inspire trust. Such support, provided by a group consisting of professionals, volunteers, and families, was assessed by a follow-up study. The outcome of 22 families was observed an average of 7 years after their participation in the group ended. Results show that most parents recovered a significant degree of social autonomy and developed the capacity to nurture their children. Alcohol abuse, violence, and child neglect decreased significantly. Such an intensive approach enhances individual and professional practices and prevents adverse childhood experiences, thus reducing welfare costs. But such support systems require accessible structures in order to avoid discontinuities in care.

Domestic violence is one of the major social issues that characterize our country, both as a contributing factor to other social problems and as a result of other social problems. Domestic violence has been made to be only an issue that affects women; it has been gendered. Men are only brought into domestic violence discourse and research only as perpetrators. However, it affects both women and men as men can also be victims of domestic violence. Domestic violence rates have increased regardless of developments in legislation. In addition, role players in the implementation of legislation tend to emphasize more on female victims which leaves male victims marginalized. This leads to male victims suffering in silence and thinking that there are no interventions for them. This paper explored experiences of abused men in intimate heterosexual relationships using qualitative approach. Data collection took a form of in-depth individual interviews. Data was analyzed using thematic content analysis. Findings indicate that men are also victims of domestic violence and are willing to share their experiences; however there are limited platforms for male victims. Their reasons for staying are multifaceted such as giving their children an opportunity to grow up with both parents. Effects of domestic violence ranged from psycho-emotional to professional development. Social workers as professionals need to sensitize themselves to the reality of male victims of domestic violence and acknowledge that men can also be victims.

Non-physically abusive acts (underpinned by coercive control) are more prevalent than physical or sexual violence within intimate partner relationships. Yet, little is known about survivors’ help-seeking journeys or the efficacy of existing services in addressing this need. We present findings from a survey of UK-based domestic violence and abuse (DVA) and sexual violence (SV) practitioners (n = 279) exploring experiences of providing care to women with histories of non-physical abuse. Our findings suggest that survivors often seek help for non-physical abuse from specialist DVA and SV services, but wider professional agencies often overlook the severity of this experience of abuse in the absence of physical or sexual violence. The impacts of non-physical abuse on survivors’ health and wellbeing are severe and there are multiple barriers to support, particularly within the criminal justice system. Our findings highlight the urgent need to increase public and professional awareness of non-physical abuse and its consequences for training of wider agencies (for example, police, child protection, legal services) and for sustainable funding that increases long-term support options for survivors and their children.

The article examines the causes of domestic violence and the relationship between family relationships and problematic behavior in childhood and adolescence. The influence of different types of parenting models on child development is presented. The symptoms of the dysfunctional family are indicated. Domestic violence and faulty parenting patterns can lead children and adolescents to traumatic experiences and sufferers should be given support and professional help. The psychological specificity of different types of family relationships has been revealed. In family relationships with prevailing manipulation, authoritarianism and alienation, children exhibit problematic behavior. Problem behavior in childhood and adolescence can be perceived as a form of protest against the lack of attention on the part of parents. In cases of disharmonious family relation, children experience dissatisfaction in interpersonal interactions, the sense of meaning in life decreases, social isolation increases. The serious consequences for the psyche, behavior and experiences of the child and adolescent living in dysfunctional families require the professional support and empathy of school psychologists. Through timely quality pedagogical and psychological help, children and adolescents will be able to overcome problems in their development that personal growth.

Exposure to situations of domestic violence during the treatment for breast cancer may compromise the treatment and quality of life of women patients, so it is essential that health professionals act in tracking this phenomenon in the approach to and care of women with breast cancer. The purpose of this study was to examine experiences of violence against women by their intimate partners after mastectomy. This is an exploratory descriptive study, with a qualitative approach, carried out in the Rehabilitation Program for Mastectomized Women in a Brazilian reference hospital for oncological treatment. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 16 mastectomized women. For data analysis, a content analysis technique was performed. The women interviewed were predominantly brown, with a minimum age of 44 years and maximum of 72 years. They presented with low education, were married, and had a mean period of five years of breast cancer diagnosis. The participants reported that after mastectomy, they experienced episodes of violence at a time when they were extremely vulnerable due to the various cancer treatments. Three major thematic categories emerged from interview data across the data collection: (1) experiences of psychological violence, (2) experiences of physical violence, and (3) experiences of sexual violence. Psychological violence took the form of humiliation and contempt for their condition. Physical violence involved assault and sexual violence in the form of forced sex by coercion. Violence was a phenomenon present after mastectomy, practiced in the domestic environment by the intimate partner. We emphasize the importance of health professionals in screening for this issue by listening to and welcoming women, recording cases, exposing this situation, and contributing to prevention.

In contemporary social life, the role and importance of the professional support services is increasing. This is due to the growing threats related to poverty, destitution, social exclusion, aggression and violence, and blocking of the development opportunities of both individuals and various social groups. Therefore, expectations and requirements for social service professionals are increasing. Their job satisfaction is related to the feeling of mental strain they experience in solving difficult human life problems, and sometimes with powerlessness in the face of inexorable fate or bureaucratic barriers. Consequently, this situation is a source of strong stress for them, unpleasant emotional experiences and, as a result, professional dissatisfaction. This article is devoted to the diagnosis of job satisfaction of people operating in social assistance. This issue is considered in the context of their sense of stress. Thus, it allows to verify the relationships between these variables.

WHO stated that “One in Three” women have experienced physical or sexual trauma globally (WHO, 2013). Statistics show that girls and women are not safer in their own homes as perpetrators are usually their intimate others or family members (Indonesian National Commission Anti Violence Against Women, 2015). Sexual violence experienced during childhood years/stage of development is likely to leave traumatic scars into adulthood if left untreated. Research in the US and Australia had indicated that survivors of sexual violence during childhood years are more susceptible to revictimization of other gender-based violence in later stage of their lives. Survivors of sexual violence are usually reluctant to report thus living silently with their trauma for years or even decades. Incest survivors found it especially hard to report their traumatic incidents because their perpetrators are family members or those familiar or with easy access around the family house/area. Research also indicated that sexual coercion showed the most negative impact compared to other traumatic coercions. Clinical and counseling psychologists with human rights perspectives need to be available to provide professional services to prevent further life trauma to survivors of sexual violence. Family therapy or a systemic approach should be an option to also provide a supportive environment as well to manage stigma from the family or from society attached to those with history of sexual violence. Services need to be strengthened, which also include interventions for perpetrators of sexual violence.

<p>This study aimed to understand the experiences of professional mixed martial arts (MMA) fighters in the psychological transition between fight and violence, based on their own reports. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with an intentional sample of five participants and their analysis was carried out from a phenomenological perspective. The intentional crossing of experiences allowed the identification of five categories: maintaining focus vs. losing your head; maintenance of the technique vs. loss of the technique; feeling good vs. embarrassment; desire to test yourself vs. aggression; desirable retaliation vs. disproportionate retaliation. The results of this study indicate that the intensification of the combative exchange that leads to the transition from the first to the second item of each category is the key element in the subjective transition between fight and violence.</p>

Objective:Although sexual violence (SV) is increasingly recognized as a major public health problem, older people are ignored in policies and practices on SV. Research on prevalence and impact of SV in older adults is limited and Belgian figures on the subject are non-existent. This mixed-methods study aimed to better understand the nature, magnitude and mental health impact of SV in older adults in Belgium.Methods:We conducted face-to-face interviews trough structured questionnaires with 513 older adults (70+) across Belgium and 100 old age psychiatry patients. Quantitative data were triangulated with qualitative data from 15 in-depth interviews with older SV victims.Results:Over 44% of Belgian older adults and 57% of old age psychiatry patients experienced SV during their lifetime, 8% and 7% respectively in the past 12-months. Lifetime exposure to SV was associated with depression (p=0.001), anxiety (p=0.001) and PTSD in older adults with chronic disease/disability (p=0.002) or lower education level (p<0.001). A minority of victims (40%) disclosed their experiences to their informal network and 4% sought professional help. Older victims are willing to share their experiences, but ask health care workers to initiate the conversation.Conclusions:This study highlights the importance of recognizing older adults as a risk group for SV and the need for tailored care for older victims. Health care professionals working with older adults need to be qualitatively trained to initiate a conversation around SV and its mental health impact in old age through training, screening tools and care procedures.

To date, most researchers concerned with chronic community violence have studied children, and focused on the types, extent, and effects of their violence experiences. In contrast, using a series of in-depth repeated interviews, the current study explored African American women’s methods for coping with chronic community violence. This article describes the variety of ways these women developed to avoid, minimize, or manage their own and their children’s encounters with community violence. It argues for the importance of using these data to inform professional intervention and suggests specific implications for practice, program development, and policy.

Does exposure to domestic violence indicate a form of child maltreatment? It is imperative that child welfare workers identify and use interventions that protect families from domestic violence and eliminate harm to children without further stigmatizing victimized women. The research described in this article attempts a first step in understanding the factors involved in the decision making process of child welfare supervisors in domestic violence cases. Findings indicate that the attitudes and beliefs of child welfare supervisors about the overlap between domestic violence and child abuse are influenced by personal experiences, professional longevity, and training.

There is growing recognition of the interconnections between domestic violence and mental health, especially related to mental health concerns among those who have experienced domestic violence victimization. Despite high rates of mental health concerns among victims and survivors, many mental health professionals lack sufficient training to understand and address domestic violence in their clinical work. The North Carolina Governor’s Crime Commission convened a task force to examine training experiences and needs among mental health professionals in the state. A statewide survey revealed that mental health professionals vary in their levels of training to address domestic violence. A key finding was that mental health professionals who had received any training in domestic violence reported engaging in more comprehensive assessment and intervention practices. Implications for future research, practice, and policy are discussed.

Entry-level health care professionals are socialized to accept the norms and values associated with institutions in which violence and suffering is considered an anticipated and even routine and normalized part of frontline care. The objective of the study was to illuminate the subjective experience of psychological trauma in graduates from a baccalaureate nursing and psychiatric nursing program using the McGill Illness Narrative Interview, an ethnographic interview guide. Participants included graduates from each program in a western Canadian province who reflected back on their experiences of trauma as students and newly-graduated nurses within their first year of practice as a regulated health professional. Results: Six key themes were identified. Witnessing sudden change in patient or client status and unexpected death; Emotional labour; Faculty incivility; Sabotage, bullying and verbal abuse from the health care team; Exposure to physical violence and sexual inappropriateness; and Mobilizing supports. All exposures were linked to the participants’ definition of psychological trauma. Conclusions: The study findings highlight the power dynamic, abuses, and vulnerability between students, faculty, and their clinical counterparts without adequate recourse. There is a need to foster emotional intelligence, self-efficacy, and resilience when potentially traumatic and stressful experiences occur with student nurse and early-career nursing populations.

In the professional realm, the healthcare sector stands out as one of the most susceptible to violence. One notable manifestation of this is violence among colleagues, commonly referred to as horizontal violence, which has garnered significant attention in recent times. To delve deeper into this phenomenon across various categories of healthcare professionals, a comprehensive search was conducted on PubMed, Scopus, and CINAHL, resulting in the inclusion of 13 articles. The findings of this narrative review illuminate how horizontal violence can manifest in both physical and psychological forms and how it often becomes normalized among the healthcare professionals who endure it. Particularly vulnerable to such occurrences are recent graduates and those with limited professional experience. Furthermore, it has been observed that horizontal violence has detrimental effects on the well-being of those subjected to it, as well as on the quality of patient care delivered. Considering preventive measures, numerous studies emphasize the pivotal role of effective departmental leadership in fostering a harmonious work environment. Despite the largely underreported nature of this phenomenon, the conclusions drawn in this study advocate for a deeper exploration of the dynamics surrounding horizontal violence, with the goal of devising targeted strategies to mitigate its occurrence.

This article explores the interweaving of desistance from violent offending and professional identity formation via a psychosocial case study of a youth worker undergoing training in the UK. It follows the trainee for five years as he attempts to leave his past as a football hooligan behind him and construct a new professional identity as a youth worker. I argue that the case exemplifies how some youth professionals with lived experience of violence, if not given the time and space to build reflexive awareness, may struggle to meet the demands of professional roles such as youth work. I identify what I see as some implications for the promotion of ex-violent offenders as role models to young men involved in violence, as has recently found support within popular and political arenas in the UK. The article concludes that training and continuing professional development regimes, when designed for those with a history of violent offending, might benefit from the deep understanding of violence, professional identity formation and desistance that psychosocial analysis offers.

Abstract This study examines the impact of workplace violence experienced by long-term care workers from the care recipients on their turnover intention and the mediating effect of work-related stress and job satisfaction in the relationship between workplace violence and turnover intention. Compared to the unfair experiences of abuses experienced by care recipients, care workers’ experiences have been relatively under-explored. Adopting the affective events theory as a theoretical framework and using the Korean National Long-Term Care Survey in 2019, the current analysis focuses on 2,427 care workers, excluding social workers, nurses, and occupational/physical therapists. The results of structural equations modeling and effect decomposition show a mediating effect of job satisfaction, indicating that the experience of workplace violence decreased the job satisfaction of care workers, resulting in increased turnover intention. On the other hand, workplace violence did not have a statistically significant indirect effect on turnover intention through work-related stress. Findings provide several implications for developing an inclusive and supportive policy and practice for care workers as well as the long-term care system in general in South Korea. Support programs and policies can be targeted toward the care workers who have experienced workplace violence and are less satisfied with their job. These can be done not only by highlighting the importance of training and education for care workers to help prevent workplace violence but also by providing a safe work environment, an appropriate compensation system, and the fair opportunities for promotion.

The key resource on which the efficiency of the system offering protection and support to victims of domestic violence depends is related to the number of professionals who deal with this phenomenon at work and to the training offered to them. Qualifications and competences of professionals who are directly engaged in cases of domestic violence are the key to success in prevention of violence and legal prosecution of perpetrators, as well as in providing direct support to victims of violence. For that reason, the research focuses on the respective segments of public systems that deal with domestic violence. Through an analysis of the basic elements of competences of employees in public systems, this paper gives an overview of the state of human resources from the aspect of possessing expertise and professional knowledge, experience, and abilities. With regard to this, the sample of 283 respondents employed in the police, social work centres, health centres, and primary schools in six municipalities in the northern part of Republic of Srpska offers a conclusion that the existing resources are not sufficiently developed and directed towards the area of domestic violence. In addition, the results obtained show that there is no practice of professional training introduced for dealing with the field of domestic violence at work, with the self-perception of employees in public institutions not related to objective indicators of their abilities and skills they possess. In terms of practical agency, the focus is mainly on minimal actions arising from the implementation of the most necessary legal procedures, while the interest expressed by professionals employed in public institutions opens space for their professional development in this direction and ensuring greater functionality of the system in terms of offering protection and support to victims of domestic violence.

The purpose of this paper was to present a comprehensive review of sexual violence against women and the victims’ susceptibility to emotional distress and sexual dysfunction. A total of 50 cases of rape victims and rape statistics report were gathered from secondary sources of information. From the retrospective description of some victims’ traumatic experiences, the picture of their negative emotions and grief were carefully analyzed and explanation provided on their exposure to psychological distress and psychosexual dysfunction. Deducing from the review and analysis of the histories and experiences of sexual violence victims, there is a strong relationship between women with history of sexual violence and susceptible to psychological distress sexual dysfunction such as; PTSD, sexual arousal inhibition, sexual avoidance contact, anger and hatred. Others include paranoia, fear of relationship with men as well as stress and re-experience of grief from the unpleasant memories of the rape incidence. Pathologically, sexual violence can threaten the psychological well-being of the survivors in a short and long-term depending on the circumstances and probably where the victim is left without care and support from friends, family and appropriate professional intervention. Thus, women who have been exposed to rape need intensive and suitable psychological intervention to heal their traumatized emotions that induce psychological distress and sexual dysfunction.

Caring for the mental health of professionals working with vulnerable groups, such as victims of violence and migrants, includes measures taken to be monitored, protect and promote the well-being of people employed in these professions. It involves a system of different tools, practices and structures that have been developed to support the well-being of mental health professionals. The subject of this paper is the consideration of the relationship between professional exposure to stress and mental health. The aim of the work is to examine the experiences of professionals who provide psychosocial support to victims of violence, and who are consequently professionally exposed to stress. The method used in the paper is a thematic, semi-structured interview. The results showed that chronic occupational exposure to stress affects mental health. This requires a well-designed organisational approach to the problem, including training and preparation of staff for trauma and stress at work, and providing supervisory support at work.

Background. Though workplace violence (WPV) is a global problem for healthcare professionals, research within in-hospital care has mainly focused on WPV in emergency healthcare settings. Thus, the number of qualitative studies that explores experiences of WPV in general hospital wards with a longer length of stay is limited. Aim. The aim of this study was to explore how healthcare professionals in surgical hospital wards experience and manage WPV perpetrated by patients or visitors. Method. The study applied a qualitative, inductive approach using focus group interviews for data collection. A purposeful sample of 16 healthcare professionals working in surgical wards was included. Data were analysed using a thematic analysis. Findings. The analysis resulted in four main themes: workplace violence characteristics, partly predictable yet not prevented, approaching workplace violence, and consequences from workplace violence. During the focus group interviews, the healthcare professionals described various acts of physical violence, verbal abuse, and gender discrimination perpetrated by patients or their visitors. Despite the predictability of some of the incidents, preventive strategies were absent or inadequate, with the healthcare professionals not knowing how to react in these threatful or violent situations. They experienced that WPV could result in negative consequences for the care of both the threatful or violent person and the other patients in the ward. WPV caused the healthcare professionals to feel exposed, scared, and unprotected. Conclusion and clinical implications. Exposure to WPV is a problem for healthcare professionals in surgical wards and has consequences for the patients. Preventive strategies, guidelines, and action plans are urgently needed to minimise the risk of WPV and to ensure a safe work and care environment.

Abstract: Respect Detectors is a manualized community education program designed to inform workshop participants on the specialized needs of LGBTQ-identified people experiencing domestic violence or sexual assault. The pilot of the program, hosted by University of Southern Maine’s Center for Sexualities and Gender Diversity, involved a small group of dedicated community members, most of whom were LGBTQ. Information generated by group participants included discussion of the intersectionality of their sexual and gender identities with the experience of being a domestic violence or sexual assault survivor. Details about several experiences of oppression in the context of multiple cultural identities is a particularly valuable component of these discussions. Professional social workers and other mental health providers should consider this information an important insight about cultural sensitivity to LGBTQ clients, particularly those who experience domestic violence or assault. The authors highlight how the group participants motivated each other to continue to be politically active around this issue in their community. Recommendations include being attentive to the specialized needs of LGBTQ people as a group, and how the experience of belonging to a group that is discriminated against further impacts traumatic events like domestic violence.Keywords: LGBTQ; LGBT; support group; domestic violence; sexual violence; oppression; sexual assault; prevention; active by-stander

Experiences of violence and emotional strategies during everyday worklife: voices from staff at special youth homes
During the 2000s, the National Board of Institutional Care (SiS) has reported an increase in violent incidents between staff and young people. This article focuses the staffs´ professional everyday life, especially descriptions of how they handle violence in their professional everyday life and what directions the violence takes. The staffs´ everyday work is often depicted on the basis of various dilemmas and tensions, which can affect how they maneuver in terms of how they deal with, and are affected by, violence during their professional working day. The purpose of this article is to illustrate how staff describe the violence they encounter in terms of form, direction and extent, including their own handling of the violence. The theoretical starting point regarding violence is taken from a relational perspective where context, situation, form and intention are important for how violence is understood. The staff’s work is understood with the help of both Hochschild’s and Bolton’s descriptions of emotional work, where emphasis is placed on the development that Bolton pointed out regarding the importance of colleagues regarding feeling-rules. Fifty-three semi-structured interviews were conducted with staff at three different secure units for adolescents in Sweden. The material was organized through a thematic analysis, yielding four themes placed under two headings; ‘A violent scene? A matter of definition’ and ‘Handling violence: strategies employed’. The results show how staff describe youth as the violent party and how they suppress their own emotions. Additionally, staff articulated their own use of violence toward youth and their emotional stance, describing an interpersonal shield that protected them from violence. The results underline the importance of raising questions about the nature of violence in secure units for adolescents and how staff handle such violence in their everyday work.
