Journal Title: مجله تحقیقات کیفی در علوم سلامت - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 2
Abstract
ntroduction: Violence against women is a universal phenomenon experienced in public and private areas. Assessing the experiences of domestic violence and determining its causes is essential to identify, prevent, and control it. This study was performed to designate married men's experiences of domestic violence on their wives in Sabzevar City, Iran. Method: In this descriptive qualitative study, participants were selected using purposive sampling, and it continued based on snowball and theoretical sampling. A face-to-face semi-structured interview was used to collect the data. A total of 20 participants (15 men, 2 spouses, 2 consultants, and 1 mother-in-law) were interviewed in 8 months. Interviews were analyzed using Graham and Landman’s content analysis method. To ensure consistency and accuracy of data, credibility, transferability, dependability, and conformability criteria were assessed. Results: Three main categories were conceptualized including “unfriendly interaction”, “lack of complying couple’s emotional needs”, and “lack of complying husband’s sexual needs”. Conclusion: Based on results, designing interventions to establish friendly interaction between couples, helping couples to identify each other's emotional and sexual needs, and couples’ effort to meet each other's emotional and sexual needs can be effective in prevention of violence on women.
