Abstract

This article focuses on domestic abuse that rural Indian women experience at the hands of their intimate partners, a problem exacerbated by the women’s lack of health literacy. Our focus is on increasing the health literacy of rural women so that they can more easily understand the long-term health effects of domestic abuse by intimate partners. Objective: Our goal in doing this systematic review study is to determine whether increasing health literacy among rural women can prevent domestic abuse and increase their ability to defend themselves. Study design: This study design involves qualitative synthesis to conduct systematic review. Methods: We reviewed the published material in an all-inclusive, methodical manner. Results: Raising women’s health literacy can aid in halting the psychological and physical harm that domestic abuse inflicts on rural women. Conclusion- Enhancing the health literacy of rural women can contribute to the greater social endeavor to stop and deal with domestic abuse. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
