| Abstract
|
:
|
This study investigates the role of the mahram in domestic violence towards Saudi female students studying abroad and the negative impact of this violence on students’ psychological well-being, academic and professional achievements, and social skills. This qualitative study uses a feminist approach, whereby the researcher conducted semi-structured interviews to collect data from Saudi female students who are recipients of Saudi scholarships, residing with a mahram, and pursuing academic degrees. To study domestic violence, the researcher selected six qualified Saudi female students enrolled in universities in the District of Columbia, Maryland, and Virginia and interviewed them to ascertain the nature, frequency, and forms of domestic abuse perpetrated by their mahrams and to assess its impact on their psychological well-being, academic progress, careers, and social lives. The collected data was then organized and subjected to a thematic analysis to show the ramifications of domestic violence on Saudi female students’ psychological well-being, academic and professional achievements, and social skills.
