“…Our findings are similar to findings from other studies in which efficient prevention programs were applied (Hanson et al 1993;Foshee et al 1998;Rothman & Silverman 2007). The most frequent type of abuse is sexual abuse, which effects both young girls and women (Spencer & Bryant 2000;Kayı et al 2000;Vezina & Hebert 2007;Jouriles et al 2009;Antle & Sullivan 2011;Kalkan & Karadeniz 2011).…”

Abstract:The aim of this study is to examine the effects of a "Healthy Relationship Development Program" on the conflict levels of female adolescents during their romantic relationships. A pre-test-post-test comparison design was used and there was also a control group. Adolescent girls (aged 18-19 years) who were in a relationship with a romantic partner were included in the study. These girls were selected among students who continued their education in the Inegol Vocational School of Uludag University in Bursa. Experimental and control groups were separately composed of 25 female adolescents. A "Personal Information Form", "Conflict in Female Adolescent Dating Relationship Inventory (CADRI)" and "HealthyUnhealthy Relationship Information Form and Program Evaluation Form" were used. The pre-test was applied to both control and experimental groups. Then, the "Healthy Relationship Development Program" (16 sessions) was performed. After implementation of the program, the post test was carried out on the test and control groups. Relational aggression and the physical, sexual and verbal-emotional abuse levels of female adolescents decreased through the effect of the "Healthy Relationship Development Program". Furthermore, it was determined that adolescent girls" knowledge of healthy/unhealthy romantic relationships was improved.

“…The rate of violence among dating adolescents is higher than violence among married couples (Coker, McKeown, Sanderson, Davis, Valois, & Huebner, 2000). Estimates range from 7 to 51% for rates of dating violence experienced by adolescents, with variations largely explained by differing definitions on what constitutes date fighting (Ackard, Neumark-Sztainer, & Hannan, 2003;Andrews, Capaldi, Foster, & Hops, 2000;Bennett & Finneran, 1998;Coker et al, 2000;Foshee, 1996;Grunbaum, Kann, Kinchen, Ross, Hawkins, Lowry, Harris, McManus, Chyen, & Collins, 2004;Hamberger & Ambuel, 1998;Lewis & Fremouw, 2001;Malik et al, 1997;Spencer & Bryant, 2000;Wekerle & Wolfe, 1999).…”

Over 2,000 North Carolina high school students completed surveys measuring community risk and protective factors and individual health risk behaviors including dating violence perpetration and victimization. Females reported more date fighting perpetration than males (8.8% to 4.0%), as well as greater levels of date fighting victimization (7.2% and 5.0%). In multivariate models, factors associated with date fighting perpetration among females and males included riding with a drinking driver. Neighborhood organization was protective for both groups. Cigarette use, drinking and driving, and being a minority were also associated with perpetration among females, while tobacco use was associated with date fighting perpetration by males. Factors associated with victimization among both genders included riding with a drinking driver. Females were more likely to be victimized if they used marijuana, whereas males were less likely to be a victim of date fighting if they perceived their community to be "organized." Findings reflect comparable individual risk factors for date fighting across genders, with few exceptions, and warrant further investigation of the role of community assets in protecting young people from dating violence.

“…[1][2][3][4][5][6][7] The percentage of adolescents in grades 6 through 12 who have engaged in dating violence has ranged from 7% to 51% for both victimization and perpetration. 3,4,[6][7][8][9][10][11][12] This wide variation across studies is caused by differences in how samples were selected and how dating violence was defined. The definition of dating violence has ranged from "verbal threats or intimidation" to "physical fighting or other forms of violence"; however, many researchers have concluded that dating violence may be underreported by adolescents.…”

“…[13][14][15] For example, researchers have found date fighting among middle school and high school students to be associated with fighting in general, substance use, weapon carrying, exposure to violence, suicidal thoughts or depressive symptoms, and sexual risk behaviors. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18] They have also found frequency of attendance at religious services to be inversely associated with dating violence, suggesting that it may be a protective factor. 19 Much of the research on adolescent dating violence has been limited to middle and high school students attending public schools and single universities.…”
