Abstract
Domestic violence has significant consequences for victims, particularly women. This study examined the prevalence of different types of violence in San Fabian, Pangasinan, and explored contributing factors, effects on victim-survivors, and coping strategies. Using a mixed-methods approach, findings revealed moderate prevalence of physical, psychological, and economic violence, and low reported sexual violence. Contributing factors included emotional instability, poor communication, economic hardship, substance abuse, and cultural norms. The study recommends enhanced awareness campaigns, support services, and targeted local interventions.
