  • Title: Meaning of INSIGHT participation among women who have experienced intimate partner violence.
    Author: Zust BL.
    Journal: Issues Ment Health Nurs; 2006; 27(7):775-93. PubMed ID: 16849263.
    Abstract:
    This phenomenological study explored the meaning that women with violent partners found in participating in a 20-week group cognitive therapy program called INSIGHT. Through a two-step interview process, ten women who had experienced intimate partner violence described what it meant to them to decide to participate in INSIGHT; what was meaningful about the program; and what influence the program had on their lives. Findings indicated an overarching theme that described a process of Rescuing Self. This study adds support for the utility of interventions, such as INSIGHT, that nurture self-emergence among women who have experienced intimate partner violence.
