Decision-making among transgender women who are victim-survivors of intimate partner violence: An integrative review

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: This integrative literature review examines intimate partner violence experienced by transgender women and the factors influencing their decision making in maintaining their continued relationship. Six online databases have been systematically searched to identify and analyse published peer reviewed journal articles on the topic. A total of seven samples were identified for the study, and data from which were thematically analysed, generating three primary themes: transgender-specific intimate partner violence complexities; experiences with care services and legal protections; and navigating trans-specific intimate partner violence. These findings provide valuable insights for social work and social service providers to ensure safety and well-being of victim-survivors of intimate partner violence among transgender women.
