Mulheres em situação de violência doméstica: tipologias de agressões e atitudes resilientes

Abstract

The study aimed to analyze the types of aggressions and resilient attitudes of women in situations of violence users of the Family Health Strategy. Of exploratory descriptive qualitative character, this study was conducted in a municipality in the Northwest region of the state of Rio Grande do Sul, with fourteen women who experienced situations of violence and attended the Family Health Strategy units. The empirical material was produced through semi-structured interviews. After contacting the nurses of each unit to obtain information about the women, the Community Health Agents were followed to the women's homes to interview them from March to August 2018. The interviews were recorded, transcribed on a computer in a 2007 word program and analyzed. For this, the resilience scale developed by Wagnild and Young (1993), an instrument to measure the level of positive psychosocial adaptation in negative life events, was applied. The study comemable Resolution 466/2012 of the National Health Council, was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Federal University of Santa Maria under Opinion number 909,978. Women experienced psychological, physical and sexual violence. The research shows that the knowledge of the resilience of women in situations of violence can contribute to family health teams to qualify attention to women so that they can feel safe enough to break with cycles of violence.
