Remapping Domestic Violence in Indian Women: Insights from Complex Trauma Theory

Poster Session XI

Keyword: Gender

Abstract: We qualitatively investigate the applicability of complex trauma theory to study psychological and somatic effects of systemic violence in 40 Indian adult women through online interviews. Findings support our hypothesis that both natal and marital violence affect women, with their psychological and somatic symptoms aligning with complex trauma theory.
