Semantic reconstruction of suicide from the perspective of women in Ilam province (an eco-friendly narrative)

The aim of the current research is to reconstruct the meaning of suicide from the perspective of women in Ilam province and by questioning this issue, it tries to present a comprehensive version of the problem of suicide in this country. The research paradigm is constructive and interpretive; The research approach is qualitative, the research strategy is grounded theory, and the research tactic is hidden content analysis. The field under study includes all women who committed suicide in the territory of Ilam province from the past until now. The method of selecting the subjects to be studied is based on purposive sampling and theoretical sampling. Purposive sampling is used to select the people to be studied and theoretical sampling is used to determine the number of people, i.e. the location of the required data and to find the path. The number of samples until the theoretical saturation stage was estimated to be 61 people. The data collection tool is a semi-structured interview that was conducted individually with the studied subjects. The data format is in audio format and for data analysis three stages of systematic coding of Strauss and Corbin were used and in the open coding stage 165 concepts were extracted and in the axial coding stage 12 subcategories and 28 categories were extracted. After comparing the categories of the research, the core category or the theory emerging from the categories was named as "the experience of modernity without a frame". Based on this theory, the unsteady modernity of the previous world caused turmoil in the society of Ilam and with its hasty entry into it, it provided the foundations of social and cultural division and became the source of social harms and injustices, of which the phenomenon of women's suicide is one of its examples.
