A nursing student is currently learning about domestic violence and wonders why the abused individual cannot 'just quickly get out of the relationship.' Which theoretical model helps in explaining the cyclical and progressive nature of domestic and spousal abuse?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The Cycle of Violence (
B), developed by Lenore Walker, explains the cyclical nature of domestic abuse, including tension-building, acute battering, and honeymoon phases, helping understand why leaving is difficult. The Cycle of Abuse and Neglect (
