Rape is one of the principal forms of sexual violence leading to numerous psychological consequences for women. Providing effective psychological services to women survivors of rape requires identifying and considering their real needs. This study aimed to explore the psychological needs of women survivors of rape.
In this exploratory-descriptive qualitative study, the participants consisted of 19 women survivors of rape and 20 people with experience in providing services to survivors of rape, selected via purposive sampling method in Isfahan, Iran. In-depth individual semi-structured interviews and field notes were used to collect data, which were then analyzed using the conventional content analysis method.
Based on the analysis of the interviews, the psychological needs of women survivors of rape were classified into three main categories: facing psychological problems, attention to emotional reactions, and the need to accept and adapt to reality.
The results revealed that women survivors of rape have different psychological needs. Thus, to meet these needs, supportive and psychological interventions can be considered at both individual and environmental levels. Also, eliminating gender stereotypes affecting the occurrence of rape in the dimensions of Iranian culture can lead to the liberation of the society from the culture of rape.
强奸是主要的性暴力形式之一，会给女性带来众多心理后果。为强奸幸存者女性提供有效的心理服务需要识别并考虑她们的实际需求。本研究旨在探讨强奸幸存者女性的心理需求。
在这项探索性描述性的定性研究中，参与者包括 19 名强奸幸存者女性和 20 名有提供强奸幸存者服务经验的人员，他们是通过在伊朗伊斯法罕的目的性抽样方法选择的。采用深入的个人半结构化访谈和现场记录收集数据，然后使用常规内容分析方法进行分析。
根据访谈分析，强奸幸存者女性的心理需求分为三个主要类别：面对心理问题、关注情绪反应以及接受和适应现实的需求。
研究结果表明，强奸幸存者女性有不同的心理需求。因此，为了满足这些需求，可以在个人和环境层面考虑提供支持和心理干预。此外，消除影响伊朗文化中强奸发生的性别刻板印象，可以使社会摆脱强奸文化。
