This study examines the experiences of female college students seeking support from formal service systems for intimate partner violence, considering the impact of social gender norms and university settings. In-depth interviews with 14 female victims reveal various barriers to seeking formal help, which include personal beliefs (such as perceptions of love and privacy), negative reactions from peers, sociocultural norms (including traditional gender roles and sexual ethics), and institutional challenges (like unfamiliarity with available resources and distrust in services). Motivating factors for seeking formal help include concerns about personal safety, reputational harm, and significant parental involvement. The study also underscores that while formal service systems offer crucial safety support, significant shortcomings persist. Based on these insights, the study recommends that strengthen primary prevention initiatives, promote bystander education, enhance the responsiveness of services to intimate partner and sexual violence, and incorporate parental roles in prevention and intervention strategies. |
