Resumo(s)

Objectives: Violence in intimate relationships (IPV) is understood as one of the most common forms of violence, being maintained by cultural habits and customs, and legitimized from generation to generation. This study aims at a comprehensive review of the literature on IPV, the relationship between the stages of change, maintenance factors, and the decision to keep or leave the violent partner. Methods: A comprehensive literature search was conducted to identify journal articles focused on IPV, following online databases as well as a manual review from relevant peer-reviewed journals. Results: Seeking help is one of the main steps in the process of change, and the stages of change are directly related to the success of interventions, so identifying stages early provides a more appropriate and effective choice of intervention. Conclusions: Thus, evaluating the stage of preparation for the change in which the victims are found is important for the individual understanding of the experience and supporting the intervention. In this sense, the Domestic Violence Survivor Assessment (DVSA) will also be presented, an instrument for evaluating the process of intentional change in victims of IPV, using the TTM.
