Abstract

This Grounded Theory Research describes the experiences of women in intimate partner violence (IPV) and identifies the processes they go through to arrive at a decision on how to optimize intimate relationships. In addition, it aims to generate a theory or a framework arising from the core concepts that evolved from the collected data.

The central research question is: What are the processes (cognitive, affective and behavioral) that Caviteñas have been through in dealing with intimate partner violence?

Eleven informants were interviewed. Data that were generated were subjected to open, axial and selective coding analysis. Five core categories were identified and in this particular research focuses only on the process of Intimate Partner Violence. 

Since this may arouse the awareness and sensitivity to cultural issues on IPV, this may be an input for health practitioners to develop culture-sensitive prevention strategies for women in Cavite.
