The purpose of this qualitative, phenomenological study is to describe intimate partner violence as experienced by men and to formulate the common structure of meanings of experiences of men exposed to intimate partner violence. The data were gathered by open-ended interviews with 10 (n = 10) men. The participants had experiences in intimate partner violence. All the 10 men were interviewed twice and they were allowed to tell their experiences as they liked. The data were analysed by applying the method developed by Colaizzi. The experiences of men formulated three main themes describing the factors leading to intimate partner violence, being a victim of intimate partner violence and own violent behavior. The main themes are named as follows: (1) a burden on the pair relationship; (2) face to face with violence; and (3) from denying violence to striving towards the truth. The research results enhance the understanding of the experiences of men. The information may be useful in promoting women's, men's and families' health, developing work on violence and in the education of professionals in social and health care. The results may also help women to understand men's experiences in a pair relationship.
这项质性现象学研究的目的是描述男性所经历的亲密伴侣暴力，并构建遭受亲密伴侣暴力的男性经历的共同意义结构。数据通过对10名男性进行开放式访谈收集。参与者都有亲密伴侣暴力的经历。这10名男性均接受了两次访谈，他们可以随意讲述自己的经历。数据采用科莱齐开发的方法进行分析。男性的经历形成了三个主要主题，描述了导致亲密伴侣暴力的因素、成为亲密伴侣暴力的受害者以及自身的暴力行为。主要主题如下：（1）对伴侣关系的负担；（2）直面暴力；（3）从否认暴力到努力寻求真相。研究结果增进了对男性经历的理解。这些信息可能有助于促进女性、男性和家庭的健康，开展针对暴力问题的工作以及对社会和医疗保健专业人员进行教育。研究结果还可能帮助女性理解男性在伴侣关系中的经历。
