چکیده

خیانت زناشویی یک پدیده میان فردی است که منجر به علائم شناختی، عاطفی و رفتاری در همسر آسیب‌دیده می‌گردد. هدف مطالعه حاضر بررسی تجارب زیسته زنان افغانستانی از خیانت زناشویی همسران و شیوه همکنش آن‌ها با این پدیده است. روش پژوهش حاضر ازلحاظ هدف کاربردی و ازلحاظ روش اجرا کیفی است. جامعه موردمطالعه دربرگیرنده‌ی زنان ساکن شهر هرات (افغانستان) که تجربه خیانت زناشویی از سوی همسر را داشتند و در سال 1400 به مراکز مشاوره مراجعه کرده بودند که از میان آن‌ها تعداد 18 نفر با روش نمونه‌گیری هدفمند انتخاب و با به‌کارگیری شیوه نیمه ساختاریافته با آن‌ها مصاحبه انجام شد. مصاحبه­ها با به‌کارگیری رویکرد تحلیل درون‌مایه به روش پیشنهادی براون و کلارک(Braun & Clarke, 2021) انجام و اطلاعات در سه دسته کد اولیه، مقوله­ها و درون‌مایه‌ها ارائه شد. به‌عنوان یافته‌های این پژوهش پس از تحلیل مصاحبه­ها سه درون‌مایه بنیادی (واکنش به خیانت، مواجهه با خیانت و عوامل باقی ماندن در رابطه) 11 مقوله و 114 کد اولیه شناسایی­ شد. جهت اعتبارسنجی مدل تدوین‌شده (شبکه درون‌مایه‌ها) از روش هالوی و فریشواتر استفاده شد. برآیندها بر پایه یافته‌های به‌دست‌آمده حاکی از آن بود که تصمیم‌گیری و واکنش زنان در جوامع مردسالار و سنتی نسبت به پدیده خیانت زناشویی منحصر به بافت فرهنگی- اجتماعی جامعه است. بیشتر زنان شرکت‌کننده پس از خیانت مجبور به ماندن در رابطه شده‌اند. در سطح کاربردی یافته­های این پژوهش می­تواند مورداستفاده مشاورانی قرار گیرد که با زوجین افغانستانی در زمینه خیانت زناشویی کار می‌کنند.

چکیده [English]

Background: Marital infidelity is a traumatic interpersonal incident that can lead to cognitive, emotional, and behavioral symptoms in the injured spouse. Objective: The current study is to investigate the lived experiences of Afghan women of marital infidelity and how they interact with this phenomenon. Method: The current research is applied in terms of purpose and qualitative in terms of execution method. The studied population includes women living in Herat City (Afghanistan) who had experienced marital infidelity by their husbands and had been referred to counseling centers in the year 1400, from which 18 people were selected as a sample using the purposeful sampling method. They were interviewed using a semi-structured method. The interviews were conducted using the thematic analysis approach proposed by Braun and Clarke (Braun & Clarke, 2021) and information was presented in three primary code categories, categories, and themes. Findings: From the analysis of the interviews, three themes (reaction to infidelity, facing infidelity, and factors to stay in the relationship), also 11 categories, and 114 primary codes were extracted. The methods Hollway and Freshwater were used to validate the developed model (Thematic network). Conclusion: Based on the findings, it can be concluded that the decision-making and reaction of women in patriarchal and traditional societies towards the phenomenon of marital infidelity is unique to the cultural-social context of the society. Almost all women in this study have decided to stay in the relationship, albeit against their wishes. At the practical level, the findings of this research can be used by counselors who work with Afghan couples in the field of marital infidelity.
