A Study on the Life and Adaptation Process of Women Victims of Digital Sexual Violence
The purpose of this study is to explore the life of a woman who has experienced digital sexual violence from a life-historical perspective and to reveal the process of overcoming the damage in depth. As a result of the study, the areas of life were 'childhood like an orphan with no one else', 'adolescence where money is important', 'lone coming of age trapped in a world of alone', 'lone college life and ridiculous fraud'. The turning points were identified as 'one intentional photo', 'increasingly tight pressure', 'police report and admission to a shelter for victims of sexual violence'. In the process of adaptation, 'continuing a confusing and anxious life, 'reflecting on oneself by starting counseling', 'starting a part-time job again', and 'living in the present rather than the past' were the main changes. As a result of this study, various case education and counseling curriculum are suggested as victims of digital sexual violence need counselors with expertise in in-depth understanding and counseling.
