Summary

This trial aims to create a short self-guided session to help increase hope among women who are experiencing intimate partner violence. The study will have two stages: developing the intervention and testing it. This registration

Who is the study for?
This trial is for women who are experiencing intimate partner violence (IPV). It aims to help them develop or increase feelings of hope. Participants should be interested in a self-guided, one-time session designed to improve their emotional wellbeing.
What is being tested?
The study is testing a brief, self-guided single-session intervention (SSI) focused on fostering hope. The pilot stage will assess how feasible and safe the SSI is, and if it's liked by participants. It also looks at its effect on hope, self-worth, empowerment, and overall emotional health.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this intervention involves psychological support without medications or medical procedures, there may not be physical side effects. Emotional discomfort could arise when discussing sensitive topics like IPV.
