Abstract
Intimate partner violence is a public health concern that leads to numerous mental health consequences, like depression. Although several reasons have been recognized as antecedents and consequences of both depression and family abuse, but the role of problem solving orientation on postpartum depressed women subjected to family violence is not evidently implicit. Depression weaken individuals problem solving orientation. Abused women were reported to be more depressed after childbirth. To date studies are lacking on the role of problem solving orientation and postpartum depression among abused postpartum women. This research is uniquely looking at the relationship between problem solving orientation, intimate partner violence and postpartum depression among postpartum abused women. 75 postpartum abused mothers responded to three sets of self-report questionnaires that measured postpartum depression, problem solving orientation and intimate partner violence. Systematic random sampling was used for data collection. Descriptive statistic and multiple regression were used via SPSS for analysis. Results of the study revealed a negative relationship between positive problem solving orientation and postpartum depression. While, positive relationship was obtained between negative problem solving orientation, intimate partner violence and postpartum depression. The study is significant to health policy makers, practitioners and health institutions.
