Outline of Literature Review and Feedback from Professor
The title of this study is “The Effects of Domestic Violence on Women”. Domestic violence refers to abuse or violence done in a domestic setting, such as cohabitation or marriage (Akhmedshina 2020). Some types of violence include physical assault, marital rape, and sexual abuse (Naz et al., 2018). The instances of domestic violence have records of negative effects on women, including unwanted pregnancies, death, mental health problems, and physical injuries (Sharma et al., 2019; Tavoli et al., 2016). However, there are interventions to deal with domestic violence on women (Bellini et al., 2020).
What are the causes and effects of domestic violence, and the intervention programs used to combat it?
Academic databases were searched to discover relevant research articles about domestic violence’s impact on women, its causes, effects, and developed interventions.
Despite affecting women (victims), domestic violence also affects the doer and children, especially when it is in a marriage setting.
