Abstract:

This study explores the profound impact of domestic violence on women aged 18 to 40 years, focusing on the physical, psychological, and socio-economic dimensions of their lives. Domestic violence, encompassing physical, emotional, sexual, and economic abuse, remains a pervasive issue affecting millions of women globally. By employing a mixed-methods approach, this research combines quantitative data from surveys and qualitative insights from in-depth interviews to present a comprehensive analysis. The quantitative component involves a structured survey administered to 500 women within the specified age range, drawn from diverse socio-economic backgrounds. The survey aims to quantify the prevalence and types of domestic violence experienced, and its direct consequences on health, employment, and social relationships. Concurrently, qualitative data is collected through semi-structured interviews with 50 women who have experienced domestic violence, providing a deeper understanding of the personal and emotional toll of abuse. Key findings indicate that domestic violence significantly undermines women's physical health, leading to chronic conditions such as anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
