Abstract
The purpose of this study was to evaluate a local natural healing service program and to explore how engagement in natural healing services related to the well-being of survivors of domestic violence. Using longitudinal secondary data, we conducted t-tests, regression, and correlation analysis on three measures (hope, distress, and empowerment) that were completed by the participants (N = 31). We provided evidence of the positive impact of a community-based natural healing services program on the well-being of survivors of domestic violence, specifically their sense of hope. This research represents the potential for natural healing services provided at the community level.
本研究的目的是评估当地的自然疗法服务项目,并探讨参与自然疗法服务与家庭暴力幸存者的福祉之间的关系。利用纵向二手数据,我们对参与者(31 人)完成的三项测量(希望、痛苦和赋权)进行了 t 检验、回归和相关分析。我们提供的证据表明,基于社区的自然疗法服务计划对家庭暴力幸存者的福祉,特别是他们的希望感,产生了积极影响。这项研究体现了在社区层面提供自然疗法服务的潜力。
