“…Rodríguez-Carballeira et al (2015) state that the psychological abuse group considered could lead to extreme behaviour in the so-called collective suicide; there are also other protection and risk factors (see for example, López-Ossorio, González Álvarez, Buquerín Pascual, García, & Buela-Casal, 2017). This paper focuses on some of them.…”

“…These episodes of 'mass social delusion' typically include thousands of people and motivate urgent behaviour designed to protect the individual and community but resolve quickly, usually within weeks, as the community interest wanes (Bartholomew, 2001) Intense delusion-like beliefs that greatly deviate from both consensual reality and orthodoxy have been reported in members of small, isolated religious groups.

Logo, o abuso psicológico contra as mulheres configura-se como uma violência hierarquicamente construída através das relações de poder, como a dominação do homem sobre a mulher.…”

“…Embora possa ser verificada a relevância da temática do abuso psicológico, observa-se que esta vem sendo tratada de forma secundária, como coadjuvante da violência física (Rodríguez-Carballeira et al, 2014), já que esse tipo de abuso é frequentemente ignorado, considerado como parte do relacionamento natural (Hernández & Aragón, 2006). Algumas estatísticas comprovam o quanto as vítimas sofrem com esse abuso.…”
