The purpose of this study was to describe women's perceptions of their violent behavior in a heterosexual partnership. The study followed the traditions of Husserlian descriptive phenomenology and the philosophy of existential phenomenology. Twenty-four volunteer Finnish women, aged 19 to 58 years, with a history of different manifestations of intimate partner violence (IPV) participated in open-ended interviews. The data were analyzed by the method developed by Colaizzi. The findings revealed that some of the women who opposed all violence on ethical grounds did not label their behavior as violent; some others minimized or justified their violent behavior. The findings offer professional insight into women's violent behavior and call for a readjustment in approaches to work in the area. Prevention and early identification of IPV require knowledge of the various manifestations and individual meanings of violence. Helping methods should provide women with the opportunity to talk about their abusive behavior and to confront and address their feelings of guilt, disappointment, and shame.
本研究旨在描述女性在异性伴侣关系中对其暴力行为的看法。本研究遵循 Husserlian 描述现象学和存在主义现象学哲学的传统。24 名志愿参加的芬兰女性，年龄在 19 至 58 岁之间，有不同形式的亲密伴侣暴力（IPV）的历史，参与了开放式访谈。通过 Colaizzi 开发的方法对数据进行了分析。研究结果表明，一些出于伦理道德原因反对一切暴力的女性并不将自己的行为视为暴力行为；还有一些人则将自己的暴力行为最小化或合理化。研究结果为专业人员了解女性的暴力行为提供了深入的见解，并呼吁对该领域的工作方法进行调整。预防和早期识别 IPV 需要了解暴力的各种表现形式和个体意义。帮助方法应该为女性提供谈论其虐待行为的机会，并直面和处理她们的内疚、失望和羞耻感。
