Aim: The purpose of the present study was to qualitatively study the factors on marital satisfaction from the viewpoint of divorced women before and after marriage. Methods: A qualitative study design based on grounded theory was used. Among the women who referred to the family court of Meybod city and were separated from their husbands, 12 women were selected to participate in the study. The sample size was selected based on theoretical saturation and data was obtained using a semi-structured deep interview. Findings: Results show divorced women before their marriage, either had specific and postmodern viewpoint toward marital satisfaction, or had idealistic and superficial viewpoint about marital life considering a minimal number of problems. After divorce, they believed in concrete and specific criteria for achieving marital satisfaction. The factors affecting marital satisfaction from the viewpoints of the participants before their marriage were classified in concepts such as idealism, superficial, attitudinal understanding, non-specific attitude; after divorce these factors were classified in concepts such as behavior and emotion control, personal and family fitness, rational-intellectualism, management of relationships, and accountability. However, before marriage, divorced women believed in logical criteria, which were retained after divorce. Conclusion: Based on the results, it can be concluded that change in postmodern, unrealistic, and idealistic ideas about marital satisfaction and the tendency to accept the realities of marital relationship can play an effective role in preventing divorce.

This qualitative study applies grounded theory methodology to investigate student perception on the effectiveness of the apprenticeship scheme on their learning. In-depth interviews were carried out with three second-year students reading for a MCAST Level 4 Advanced Diploma in Financial Services to gather insight on their experiences and their perception of the current apprenticeship scheme and how it contributes towards their learning. Through the analysis of grounded data, interrelationships between concepts have been examined based on contextual conditions, actions and reactions, and consequences and outcomes. The study proposes a model of factors affecting learning which will aid stakeholders to improve the current apprenticeship scheme.

ABSTRACT Objective: To understand how the nursing academics experience the process of taking care of bereaved families after a suicide loss, to identify the meanings of the experience and to build a theoretical model. Method: Qualitative study that used symbolic interactionism and grounded theory. Open interviews were held with 16 nursing academics. Data were analyzed according to the constant comparative method. Results: The phenomenon seeking his/her own restoration to help the bereaved family to move on is represented by the theoretical model composed by the categories: facing the tragedy in the family, evaluating the caring scenario, mobilizing his/her internal resources, performing the care and reflecting on the repercussions of the experience. Final considerations: The process represents efforts undertaken by students in the pursuit of the family’s restoration to provide the best care toward them, through embracement, listening, sensitivity and flexibility, so it creates opportunities for the family to strengthen and plan their future.

Marriage Problems

When a marriage breaks down if the parties are unable to agree as to how their assets are to be divided their disputes may currently be heard in two different court hierarchies applying two disparate sets of legal principles. Inevitably this position leads to forum shopping and to the proliferation of legal proceedings which are not directed at resolving the substantive issue between the parties. It produces uncertainty, duplication, expense and delay. Although the problems associated with dual jurisdiction in matrimonial property disputes arise both before and after divorce, neither the Family Court nor the Supreme Courts have yet, it seems, formulated policies which ought to be pursued. Nor have they been consistent in their choice or application of the legal mechanisms that they enlist to break the deadlock. It is suggested here that both the federal and state courts should aspire to the centralisation of matrimonial property disputes, so far as is constitutionally feasible, within the Family Court. With that objective in mind the various legal devices currently invoked to resolve disputes about jurisdiction are critically reviewed. Some techniques are suggested to overcome problems which recur in the case law and a general approach is proposed which, it is hoped, will achieve consistency in the aims and in the legal principles adhered to by the courts in the future.

Results: a comparative analysis of the data led to the identification of the main category and to the construction of the theoretical model TRYING TO REBUILD WHAT WAS BROKEN. Conclusion: the family experiencing reintegration lives a process of reconstruction that allows to revisit situations of abandonment and review the behavior of caring and re-meaning of family coexistence.

This is a qualitative study in which 12 Brazilian women who were given shelter due to have suffered from violence were interviewed. The data organization and analysis was supported by the Grounded Theory, with the help of Atlas.ti software. Before being in the shelter, the study revealed the hardening of family relations and breaking of affectional bonds as well feelings of anxiety, depression, shame, fear and humiliation. Their permanence in the shelter helped the women to create strategies of coping with violence, which in turn, contributed to their reintegration in society as well as the recovery of their dignity and citizenship.
