Based on a questionnaire and on life history calendars method, this study examines the victimization journey of 75 women who experienced at least one form of intimate partner violence within a window period of three years. The aim is the understanding of violence and its parameters. The results suggest a significant heterogeneity between the types of violence. The forms of violence unfold and evolve distinctly. Findings highlight the interest of studying the types of violence individually, but also to examine their co-occurrence.
