TY - JOUR PY - 2010// TI - Childhood Experiences of Appalachian Female Survivors of Adult Intimate Partner Violence JO - Journal for nurse practitioners, The A1 - Bull, Amy SP - 606 EP - 611 VL - 6 IS - 8 N2 - This phenomenological study explored the childhood experiences of women from southern Appalachia who had survived intimate partner violence. Three essential themes were derived: living as if an orphan, surviving in chaos, and manifesting a devalued self. These themes were congruent with findings from other research studies. These themes can provide insight for providers as they care for children and adolescents.
