| Summary: | This research used a constructivist grounded theory approach in order to explore Aboriginal women's attitudes and beliefs about sexual violence. Data was derived from semi-structured interviews with Aboriginal women who resided in Perth, Western Australia. A number of themes emerged, which described the historical and contemporary contexts that contribute to current attitudes and beliefs about sexual violence in Aboriginal communities. A model was developed describing competing contexts for Aboriginal women in relation to sexual violence. |
