The present research is a qualitative exploration of spousal abuse faced by Pakistani women residing in Lahore.
Using Thematic analysis, we investigated different dimensions of spousal abuse, seeking to understand the
forms of abuse experienced by women and how they feel, think, and react in response to it. For this purpose, a
purposive sample of 16 women was taken. Data were collected through six semi-structured interviews and focus
group method. The findings revealed that the women were experiencing a myriad of abuse and mistreatment
including physical violence, emotional abuse ranging from humiliation to cold indifference, disempowerment
and deprivation. This led to effects on their sense of self, physical and mental health, cognitions, relationships
and wellbeing.
