Stockholm Syndrome and Rogers' Triad in Women Experiencing Domestic Violence

As part of the final qualifying work, an in-depth analysis of Stockholm syndrome and its connection with the Rogers triad in women suffering from domestic violence was carried out, identifying new directions for practical assistance. In the process of writing the work, the literature on the research topic was analyzed and a model of the manifestations of Stockholm syndrome in women exposed to violence was developed. In the empirical part of the study, we conducted semi-structured interviews with respondents with different levels of Rogers triad severity and looked at how women from contrasting groups according to these indicators experience Stockholm syndrome. Giorgi's descriptive phenomenological analysis was used to process the data obtained through the interviews. Empirical research has revealed two types of syndrome that are associated with different levels of congruence, empathy, and unconditional acceptance. The results of the study provide a basis for developing methods to support women in situations of domestic violence and highlight the need for further research to better understand this phenomenon.
