Abstract: The topic of domestic violence (DV) is a main one in social sciences. This article makes use of the mind mapping-based literature review (MMBLR) approach to render an image on the knowledge structure of domestic violence. The finding of the review exercise is that its knowledge structure comprises four main themes, i.e., (a) Definitions of basic concepts, (b) Major underlying theories and thinking, (c) Main research topics and issues, and (d) Major trends and issues related to practices. There is also a set of key concepts identified from the DV literature review. The article offers some academic and pedagogical values on the topics of DV, literature review and the mind mapping-based literature review (MMBLR) approach.
Key words: Domestic violence (DV), literature review, mind map, the mind mapping-based literature review (MMBLR) approach, social sciences

Introduction
Domestic violence (DV) is a main topic in social sciences. It is of academic and pedagogical interest to the writer who has been a lecturer on housing studies, a subject in social sciences, for some tertiary education centres in Hong Kong. In this article, the writer presents his literature review findings on DV using the mind mapping-based literature review (MMBLR) approach. This approach was proposed by this writer this year and has been employed to review the literature on a number of topics, such as supply chain management, strategic management accounting and customer relationship management (Ho, 2016). The MMBLR approach itself is not particularly novel since mind mapping has been employed in literature review since its inception. The overall aims of this exercise are to:
1.      Render an image of the knowledge structure of domestic violence  (DV) via the application of the MMBLR approach;
2.      Illustrate how the MMBLR approach can be applied in literature review on an academic topic, such as DV.

The findings from this literature review exercise offer academic and pedagogical values to those who are interested in the topics of DV, literature review and the MMBLR approach. Other than that, this exercise facilitates this writer’s intellectual learning on these three topics. The next section makes a brief introduction on the MMBLR approach. After that, an account of how it is applied to study DV is presented.

On mind mapping-based literature review
The mind mapping-based literature review (MMBLR) approach was developed by this writer in 2016 (Ho, 2016). It makes use of mind mapping as a complementary literature review exercise (see the Literature on mind mapping Facebook page and the Literature on literature review Facebook page). The approach is made up of two steps. Step 1 is a thematic analysis on the literature of the topic chosen for study. Step 2 makes use of the findings from step 1 to produce a complementary mind map. The MMBLR approach is a relatively straightforward and brief exercise. The approach is not particularly original since the idea of using mind maps in literature review has been well recognized in the mind mapping literature. The MMBLR approach is also an interpretive exercise in the sense that different reviewers with different research interest and intellectual background inevitably will select different ideas, facts and findings in their thematic analysis (i.e., step 1 of the MMBLR approach). Also, to conduct the approach, the reviewer needs to perform a literature search beforehand. Apparently, what a reviewer gathers from a literature search depends on what library facility, including e-library, is available to the reviewer. The next section presents the findings from the MMBLR approach step 1; afterward, a companion mind map is provided based on the MMBLR approach step 1 findings.

Mind mapping-based literature review on domestic violence (DV): step 1 findings
Step 1 of the MMBLR approach is a thematic analysis on the literature of the topic under investigation (Ho, 2016). In our case, this is the DV topic. The writer gathers some academic articles from some universities’ e-libraries as well as via the Google Scholar. With the academic articles collected, the writer conducted a literature review on them to assemble a set of ideas, viewpoints, concepts and findings (called points here). The points from the DV literature are then grouped into four themes here. The key words in the quotations are bolded in order to highlight the key concepts involved.
Theme 1: Definitions of basic concepts
Point 1.1.              Domestic violence has been described by the Nevada Attorney General’s Office “as a violent crime committed in the context of an intimate relationship. It is characterized by acts of violence, power and coercion intended to control another person’s behavior” … While Domestic Violence (DV), often referred to as Intimate Partner Violence (IPV), has both male and female offenders, women are much more likely to be victims of IPV than men” (Powell, 2011);
Point 1.2.              “The World Health Organization defines domestic violence as “the range of sexually, psychologically and physically coercive acts used against adult and adolescent women by current or former male intimate partners.”..” (Koening et al., 2006);
Theme 2: Major underlying theories and thinking
Point 2.1.              “Ganley and Schechter … highlight several additional ways that children experience about domestic violence. These include hitting or threatening a child while in his or her mother’s arms, taking the child hostage to force the mother’s return to the home, using a child as a physical weapon against the victim, forcing the child to watch assaults against the mother or to participate in the abuse, and using the child as a spy or interrogating him or her about the mother’s activities” (Edleson, 1999);
Point 2.2.              “…with rapid social changes that erode traditional Chinese family values, elder abuse in the family may become a fact of life for Chinese, as have wife and child abuse” (Yan and Tang, 2003);
Point 2.3.              “Although culture may be used to justify violence against women, there is a danger of presenting the role of culture in domestic violence as a purely negative force. All too often, the fact that cultural practices and beliefs can serve as protective factors for battered women … is ignored or denied” (Sokoloff and Dupont, 2005);
Point 2.4.              Chinese culture emphasizes morality at the individual level and harmony at the relationship level. Perseverance as a conflict resolution strategy and tolerance of pain are highly regarded by Chinese people. This means that showing discontent or anger in public is frowned on because of concern about losing face … The suppression of feelings is a common reaction to conflict, but when people are challenged in a private setting, they are more likely to lose their temper. Violence is generally not recognized in Chinese culture except within the family” (Chan and Brownridge, 2008);
Point 2.5.              “In Chinese culture, a woman must observe the four virtues: morality, proper speech, modest manners, and diligent work. The social and cultural legitimacy of a woman’s subordination is regarded as an important actor that contributes to violence against women” (Chan and Brownridge, 2008);
Point 2.6.              “Studies from the United States have revealed significant associations between contextual variables reflecting neighbourhood poverty and risk of domestic violence” (Koening et al., 2006);
Point 2.7.              “With regard to the abusers’ characteristics, Chinese abusive partners tend to be unemployed or of a low socioeconomic status…; to abuse alcohol and drugs …; to have a gambling problem …; to be young ….; to have a sense of insecurity, an aggressive personality, poor anger management, and a lack of empathy …; to have a psychological disorder …; and to suffer from sexual jealousy” (Chan and Brownridge, 2008);
Point 2.8.              “….the need to question the primacy of gender becomes apparent when one realizes that the violence and control by an individual batterer is not the only form of violence experienced by marginalized battered women. Instead, the lack of adequate institutional support in the form of social services and public housing as well as the intrusions and coercive controls by the state and its agencies (e.g., welfare) is another level of violence experienced by battered women, which occur in ways that are racialized as well as gendered and classed” (Sokoloff and Dupont, 2005);
Point 2.9.              “…adult offspring who are abusive toward their aging parents may be victims of child abuse who have learned violence as a means to resolve conflicts” (Yan and Tang, 2003);
Point 2.10.         “…the ecological theory links interpersonal violence to broader social structures. It is suggested that people’s environment can be understood as a series of settings, each nesting within the next broader level … For a full understanding of interpersonal violence, analysis should proceed at four levels, ranging from the individual characteristics of the victim and abuser to the culture of the society” (Yan and Tang, 2003);
Point 2.11.         “…while much of the research surrounding childhood exposure to domestic violence has focused on male-perpetrated violence …, researchers studying family violence must recognize that children may also be exposed to violence in which their mother is the perpetrator or to bidirectional acts of violence between caregivers” (Evans, Davies and DiLillo, 2008);
Point 2.12.         “…women married to more educated husbands (7 or more years of schooling) experienced significantly higher risks of coercive sexual intercourse. This may reflect the widely held view across much of Indian society that it remains the husband’s prerogative to physically compel his wife to engage in sexual relations when desired, behavior not attenuated and perhaps even more pronounced with increased levels of schooling on  the part of the husband” (Koening et al., 2006);
Point 2.13.         “According to the intergenerational transmission of violence theory, domestic violence can be learned and passed from one generation to the next” (Yan and Tang, 2003);
Point 2.14.         An emerging body of scholarly work is giving voice to battered women from a wide range of formerly excluded and ignored communities. This literature embodies a variety of theoretical perspectives that emphasize the individual lived experiences of diverse battered women … as well as the social structural underpinnings of domestic violence in culturally diverse communities” (Sokoloff and Dupont, 2005);
Point 2.15.         “Domestic violence and other social work contexts typically view client interactions and support from one of two philosophies or approaches.…. The first approach is case management where survivors meet regularly with a case manager to achieve specific goals and can sometimes be denied services if they do not achieve those goals …. A second approach to domestic violence interactions positions empowerment as the process and end goal, and details how an empowerment philosophy permeates both client interactions and organizational processes …. empowerment-based services acknowledge the individual as the expert and sole decision maker of her life” (D’Enbeau and Kunkel, 2013);
Point 2.16.         Higher socioeconomic status levels and higher levels of education among women have generally been found to be protective factors against women’s risk of domestic violence. Several studies have shown that demographic factors such as age, number of living male children, and extended family residence are inversely associated with risk of domestic violence. In addition, studies from India have shown lower dowry levels to be associated with significantly higher subsequent risks of violence” (Koening et al., 2006);
Point 2.17.         “Most studies on the effects of domestic violence involve children who have experienced a variety of stressful life events in addition to domestic violence ….. Several psychologists have suggested that factors associated with abuse, such as single parenthood, divorce, poverty, substance abuse, shelter placement, and institutionalization, rather than abuse itself, may be at least partially responsible for the adverse "effects" of maltreatment” (Sternberg et al., 1993);
Point 2.18.         “Several studies suggest that exposure to domestic violence may affect boys and girls differently. In general, research suggests that boys demonstrate more externalizing behaviors while girls tend to display more internalizing behaviours” (Evans, Davies and DiLillo, 2008);
Point 2.19.         “The ecological model, which tries to explain the multifaceted nature of violence was first introduced in the late 1970s … Later on, several authors have used an ecological model to conceptualize gender-based violence … The model explores the relationship between individual and contextual factors, and highlights the multiple causes of violence and the interaction of risk factors operating within the family and broader community” (Kocacık, Kutlar and Erselcan, 2007);
Point 2.20.         “This intersectionality of race, class, and gender has real-life consequences for many battered women who are seeking safety: “Individuals may have internalized ideologies antithetical to disclosure of violence” For example, a Vietnamese woman who has been taught that saving face and family unity pre-empt individual safety will be reluctant to seek outside help for domestic violence” (Sokoloff and Dupont, 2005);
Point 2.21.         “Because a child's level of coping skills and perception of domestic violence may vary according to age, effects of exposure to domestic violence may manifest differently in children of different developmental stages” (Evans, Davies and DiLillo, 2008);
Theme 3: Main research topics and issues
Point 3.1.              “Several studies have tried to identify markers of domestic violence for use as indicators during primary care consultations. However, although features such as depression, anxiety, and somatisation are associated with domestic violence, they lack predictive value” (Bradley et al., 2002);
Point 3.2.              “Some domestic violence scholars question how research findings may affect women who are already severely disadvantaged. They emphasize the need for researchers to think about how their work could be misused to create policies to further alienate and disempower some battered women” (Sokoloff and Dupont, 2005);
Point 3.3.              “We used different items to assess violence, including the act itself, whether it is physical (battering, wounding, keeping, etc.) psychological (threat or curse) or sexual (sexual abuse); as well as how it is performed (the means of violence – use of physical power, a weapon or insult and curse).… it would be useful to document the duration and frequency of violent acts” (Kocacık, Kutlar and Erselcan, 2007);
Point 3.4.              “…two broad themes of the 1990s provide the most promising directions for the future.  The first theme is about the importance of making distinctions. Partner violence cannot be understood without acknowledging important distinctions among types of violence, motives of perpetrators, the social locations of both partners, and the cultural contexts in which violence occurs…. Control, the second promising theme, is visible in the feminist literature, which has argued that partner violence is primarily a problem of men using violence to maintain control over “their women,” a control …. that is supported by a patriarchal culture” (Johnson and Ferraro, 2000);
Point 3.5.              “[On study of effects of domestic violence on children] When mothers are the victims of spouse abuse, the perpetrators of physical abuse, or the partners of child abusers, their ability to accurately describe their children's behavior problems may be compromised” (Sternberg et al., 1993);
Point 3.6.              “…scholars, survivors, advocates, and activists, particularly women of color and lesbians, are challenging the traditional feminist view that gender inequality is the primary factor determining domestic violence” (Sokoloff and Dupont, 2005);
Point 3.7.              A further complication in the comparison of prevalence estimates [on violence] is the use of inconsistent definitions of abuse. For example, some studies present figures only for violent acts occurring in the last 12 months, whereas others measure lifetime experience of violence” (Ellsberg et al., 2001);
Point 3.8.              A general understanding of the underlying precipitating factors for domestic violence in developing countries remains limited” (Koening et al., 2006);
Point 3.9.              Abused Chinese immigrant women in Hong Kong have been found to have high levels of depressive symptoms … The effects of IPV [intimate partner violence] do not fade even after these women have obtained Hong Kong residency or have stayed in Hong Kong for at least seven years. This motivates the need of investigating the relation between immigration status and IPV” (Wong et al., 2013);
Point 3.10.         “Although there is some evidence that children who are victims and/or witnesses of domestic violence have more social and emotional problems than their nonabused counterparts, findings have varied across studies” (Sternberg et al., 1993);
Point 3.11.         An abused woman may not reveal her victimization to an interviewer for a variety of reasons. She may feel that the subject is too personal to discuss, she may be embarrassed or ashamed, she may fear reprisal by her abuser should he find out about the interview, she may misunderstand the question, or she may think the abuse was too minor to mention” (Ellsberg et al., 2001);
Point 3.12.         “Current research suggests that batterers may demonstrate more psychopathology, particularly features of personality disorder and negative psychological traits …  Past research has focused mainly on two dimensions: personality traits and disorders as well as alcohol and drug use” (Chan and Brownridge, 2008);
Point 3.13.         Empowerment approaches to domestic violence prevention are gaining in popularity because of their commitment to individualized care and recognition that the survivor is the expert of her own life. However, organizations charged with empowering survivors of domestic violence confront paradoxes when putting empowerment theory into practice” (D’Enbeau and Kunkel, 2013);
Point 3.14.         “In DV situations, conflict can play out in separation and access proceedings, which can even be a site of further coercive abuse ….  Furthermore, the manipulation and control which encompass DV make it very difficult to prove within the courtroom setting, with judges often having to determine the credibility of parents as they present conflicting accounts of abusive events which occurred within the privacy of their own home” (Naughton et al., 2015);
Point 3.15.         “Much of what is known about domestic violence, its prevalence, and risk factors stems from research carried out in Western countries, in particular the United States …   Although there have been some efforts to identify domestic violence prevalence rates in the Caribbean …., reliable statistical data on domestic violence in this region are largely unavailable” (Van Wijjk, d. Leeuw and d. Bruijin, 2015);
Point 3.16.         “The traditional feminist approach to domestic violence has generally been to emphasize the common experiences of battered women in the interests of forging a strong feminist movement to end woman abuse. However, this approach has increasingly been questioned by scholars and activists who recognize the need to give voice to women marginalized by the largely White, middleclass feminist movement” (Sokoloff and Dupont, 2005);
Point 3.17.         “There are certain constraints which limit our knowledge of violence. First of all, data on women who have not attended shelters or other services as victims of violence is relatively scarce…..    The lack of cross-cultural research is another weakness” (Kocacık, Kutlar and Erselcan, 2007);
Point 3.18.         “There is a belief among some parents that their children are shielded from exposure to the violence… many of the parents …. believed their children did not “witness” an event, because they were sleeping or playing outside” (Edleson, 1999);
Theme 4: Major trends and issues related to practices
Point 4.1.              “Domestic violence, also known as intimate partner violence (IPV) may include physical violence, sexual violence, threats of violence and/or emotional violence …. About 30 percent of women are affected worldwide by IPV and over one-third (35.6 percent) of women in the USA experience IPV in their lifetime” (Laharnar et al., 2015);
Point 4.2.              “Services in Hong Kong to protect children have grown rapidly in the past 20 years …. In comparison, services for battered wives have received much less attention from the public and have attracted very few public resources” (Chan and Lam, 2005);
Point 4.3.              “Victims of domestic violence are often required to repeat their story and experience of abuse to different professionals. There has been a great desire to reduce this system-induced trauma throughout the helping process … The reorganized FCPSUs [Family and Child Protection Services Units]   are therefore responsible for planning and providing coordinated services to victims of domestic violence in Hong Kong under the concept of one-stop service” (Chan and Lam, 2005);
Point 4.4.              Work-related consequences of IPV include the abuser using work-interference tactics (harassing co-workers, affecting employee’s ability to get to work, stay at work), survivor absenteeism due to illness, injury or mental health and reduced job performance and productivity due to employee’s difficulty concentrating and absence” (Laharnar et al., 2015);
Point 4.5.              Abused immigrant women’s use of formal help-seeking opportunities, such as police, shelter, and medical services has been found to be lower than that for abused nonimmigrant women” (Wong et al., 2013);
Point 4.6.              “Although many women [in Turkey] conform to the expectations of their family and community and are not subjected to physical violence, they remain constantly under threat. The example of other women who have been ostracized, beaten or killed serves as sufficient warning to restrict their behavior and limit their life choices” (Kocacık, Kutlar and Erselcan, 2007);
Point 4.7.              “Despite the well-known effects of IPV on the employee and workplace, there is currently no required US federal employment protection law for IPV to support or protect the employee and co-workers” (Laharnar et al., 2015);
Point 4.8.              “Studies consistently find that the majority of homeless women were once victims of domestic violence …. and that more than half of all women receiving public assistance were once victims of domestic violence” (Sokoloff and Dupont, 2005);
Point 4.9.              Victims of IPV [Intimate Partner Violence] may suffer emotionally and physically long after their offenders are gone. According to the NNADV [Nevada Network Against Domestic Violence], “women who have experienced domestic violence are 80 percent more likely to have a stroke, 70 percent more likely to have heart disease, 60 percent more likely to have asthma and 70 percent more likely to drink heavily than women who have not experienced intimate partner violence.” Impacts of IPV male victimization is less understood due to the social stigmas associated with masculinity” (Powell, 2011);
Point 4.10.         Violence against women is increasingly recognized as a significant public health and human rights concern… One of the most common forms of violence against women is the physical and sexual abuse of women by a current or former intimate partner. Abuse of this sort has been associated with a broad range of serious physical and mental health problems” (Ellsberg et al., 2001);
Point 4.11.         Over the last decade, violence against women in developing countries has emerged as a growing concern among researchers and policymakers interested in women’s health and empowerment. In developing countries, women are vulnerable to many forms of violence, and domestic violence represents the most common form” (Koening et al., 2006);

Each of them has a set of associated points (i.e., idea, viewpoints, concepts and findings). Together they provide an organized way to comprehend the knowledge structure of the domestic violence (DV) topic. The bolded key words in the quotation reveal, based on the writer’s intellectual judgement, the key concepts examined in the DV literature. The referencing indicated on the points identified informs the readers where to find the academic articles to learn more about the details on these points; readers are also referred to the Literature on domestic violence Facebook page. The process of conducting the thematic analysis is an exploratory as well as synthetic learning endeavour on the topic’s literature. Once the structure of the themes, sub-themes[1] and their associated points are finalized, the reviewer is in a position to move forward to step 2 of the MMBLR approach. The MMBLR approach step 2 finding, i.e., a companion mind map on DV, is presented in the next section.

Mind mapping-based literature review on DV: step 2 (mind mapping) output
By adopting the findings from the MMBLR approach step 1 on domestic violence (DV), the writer constructs a companion mind map shown as Figure 1.




Referring to the mind map on DV, the topic label is shown right at the centre of the map as a large blob. Four main branches are attached to it, corresponding to the four themes identified in the thematic analysis. The links and ending nodes with key phrases represent the points from the thematic analysis. The key phrases have also been bolded in the quotations provided in the thematic analysis. As a whole, the mind map renders an image of the knowledge structure on DV based on the thematic analysis findings. Constructing the mind map is part of the learning process on literature review. The mind mapping process is speedy and entertaining. The resultant mind map also serves as a useful presentation and teaching material. This mind mapping experience confirms the writer’s previous experience using on the MMBLR approach (Ho, 2016). Readers are also referred to the Literature on literature review Facebook page and the Literature on mind mapping Facebook page for additional information on these two topics.

Concluding remarks
The MMBLR approach to study DV provided here is mainly for its practice illustration as its procedures have been refined via a number of its employment on an array of topics (Ho, 2016). No major additional MMBLR steps nor notions have been introduced in this article. In this respect, the exercise reported here primarily offers some pedagogical value as well as some systematic and stimulated learning on domestic violence (DV) in social sciences, e.g., housing studies. Nevertheless, the thematic findings and the image of the knowledge structure on DV in the form of a mind map should also be of academic value to those who research on this topic.
