dc.description.notesThis Scottish study sought to compare health professionals' beliefs about domestic violence with those of abused women. The study used the Common Sense Model of Self-Regulation of Health and Illness as a framework for understanding domestic violence. This model considers five components of disease: identity, cause, timeline, curability/controllability and consequences. According to the authors, this is the first time the model has been applied to a social phenomenon such as domestic violence.<br/ ><br/ >The study involved two stages. In the first stage, 29 health professionals (midwives, public health nurses and the higher general practitioners) participated in interviews in which they were asked to recall two occasions on which a female patient disclosed domestic abuse. This stage of the research used the Critical Incidents Technique. During the second stage of the study, three focus groups were held with abused women (14 women in total), in which they were presented with three vignettes based on the incidents described by the health professionals. During the focus groups, women were asked to discuss the health professionals' decisions and responses.<br/ ><br/ >The article explores the similarities and differences between health professionals' and women's perspectives and concludes that the Common Sense Model is a useful framework for investigating health professionals' beliefs about domestic violence.en
