Shame, Resilience and Well-being After Intimate Partner Violence: an Intervention Study With Replicated Single-Subject Design. (EMBER-4)
25. mai 2026 oppdatert av: Uppsala University
The EMBER protocol is a health care method that is designed to increase resilience, in order to improve well-being and overall health in women who have experienced violence by a partner.
This study explores whether the EMBER intervention works in this way.
Eight participants will take part in the EMBER program and complete questionnaires every week during the intervention.
The researchers will compare the timeline for the intervention to how resilience levels change.
They will also check whether changes in resilience are linked to changes in health and well-being.

Detaljert beskrivelse
Intimate partner violence (IPV) is a global problem with complex consequences in society as well as for the victim/survivor.
The EMBER-protocol was developed at National Center for Knowledge on Men´s violence against Women, Uppsala University, Sweden.
The purpose of the protocol is to provide women who have been subjected to IPV with support and tools for empowerment and improving resilience, thereby improving health and well-being.
In this study with replicated single-case design, 8 patients will complete questionnaires bi-weekly while taking part of the intervention, starting from their very first contact with the clinic.
The questionnaires are completed using a mobile application.
Data will be processed using a combination of visual and statistical analysis, in order to examine how interventions intended to improve resilience, changes in resilience measures and changes in well-being and health relate to each other temporally.
