Abstract

This study examined the relationship between women’s self-perceptions, self-efficacy in coping with domestic violence, and coping strategies, as well as the mediating role of negative automatic thoughts and emotion regulation difficulties within the cultural context of Türkiye. The sample consisted of 479 women who reported experiencing violence from their spouses. Structural Equation Modeling was conducted using the LISREL 8.80 package program (Scientific Software International, Inc., Lincolnwood, IL, USA). Results revealed that the relationship between women’s self-perception and self-efficacy in coping with domestic violence was partially mediated by emotion regulation difficulties and negative automatic thoughts. Negative automatic thoughts had a partial mediating effect on the relationship between self-perception and problem-focused stress coping and a full mediating effect on the relationship between self-perception and emotion-focused stress coping. In addition, emotion regulation difficulties fully mediated the relationship between self-perception and emotion-focused stress coping, while partially mediating the relationship between self-perception and problem-focused stress coping. The self-perception variable alone explained approximately 37% of the variance in self-efficacy to cope with domestic violence, while self-perception, negative automatic thoughts, and emotion regulation difficulties together explained approximately 70% of this variance. These findings emphasize the importance of addressing both individual psychological factors and broader sociocultural contexts when developing interventions for women experiencing domestic violence. They suggest that therapeutic approaches targeting negative automatic thoughts and emotion regulation may enhance women’s self-efficacy in coping with violence while acknowledging that such individual-focused interventions must be complemented by systemic efforts to address the underlying causes of gender-based violence in Türkiye and beyond.
家庭暴力女性应对暴力的自我效能感、应对方式和自我认知的调查
本研究探讨了家庭暴力文化背景下女性应对家庭暴力的自我认知、自我效能和应对策略之间的关系,以及消极自动思维和情绪调节困难的中介作用。该样本由479名报告遭受配偶暴力的妇女组成。结构方程建模使用LISREL 8.80软件包程序(Scientific Software International, Inc., Lincolnwood, IL, USA)。结果发现,女性应对家庭暴力的自我知觉与自我效能感之间存在情绪调节困难和消极自动思维的部分中介关系。消极自动思维对自我知觉与问题导向型压力应对的关系有部分中介作用,对自我知觉与情绪导向型压力应对的关系有完全中介作用。此外,情绪调节困难在自我知觉与情绪聚焦型压力应对之间起完全中介作用,在自我知觉与问题聚焦型压力应对之间起部分中介作用。自我感知变量单独解释了应对家庭暴力的自我效能感的约37%的差异,而自我感知、消极的自动思维和情绪调节困难共同解释了约70%的差异。这些发现强调了在为遭受家庭暴力的妇女制定干预措施时,处理个人心理因素和更广泛的社会文化背景的重要性。他们认为,针对消极自动思维和情绪调节的治疗方法可能会提高女性应对暴力的自我效能感,同时承认,这种以个人为中心的干预措施必须辅以系统的努力,以解决 rkiye及其他地区基于性别的暴力的潜在原因。
