“…[1][2][3][4] Dünya genelindeki veriler, üniversite öğrencileri arasında şiddetin yaygın olduğunu, erkek ve kadınların flört ilişkilerinde, %10-%50'sinin fiziksel partner şiddet mağduru olduklarını göstermektedir. 4,5 Flört şiddetinin en yaygın şekli olan psikolojik şiddette, erkek ve kız öğrencilerin %80-%90'ının kurban veya fail oldukları görülmektedir.

Aim:The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between health sciences students' attitudes and experiences towards dating violence and their attitudes towards health professional roles in violence. Method: The research was planned as a cross-sectional and descriptive study. In the research, all students who were selected by the purposeful sampling method and who were studying at Faculty of Nursing, Health Sciences and Health services and accepted to participate were included in the study. As a result of the study, 560 students studying in the specified departments were reached. As a data collection form, the Individual Introduction Form, Attitude Scale Towards Dating Violence and Attitude Scale towards Professional Role in Violence were applied to the participants. Results: The total score of the students' attitude scale towards dating violence was 118.81 ± 14.6 (min = 77.00, max = 219), and the total score of the attitude scale about professional roles in violence was 45.60 ± 5.30 (min = 15.00, max = 75.00). It is seen that 15.4% of the students are exposed to violence in their current dating relationships, they are mostly exposed to psychological violence in dating violence (87.2%).In the Pearson correlation analysis performed between the total scores and sub-dimensions of both scales, it was found that there were moderate and weak significant differences (p<0.05).It was determined that the mean scores of the male students' Attitude Scale towards Dating Violence and the scale of attitude towards their professional roles in violence are significantly higher than the mean scores of female students. Conclusion: It was found that students' attitudes towards dating violence also affect their professional attitudes towards violence. As the students' accepted attitudes towards dating violence increase, it is found that their attitudes towards their professional roles in violence take place in the traditional approach. Therefore, the violence education that will be given to the culture-specific and especially male students during undergraduate period, it is anticipated that it will be an effective step in preventing violence as a healthcare professional in the future, and experiencing individual violence.

Family violence (FV), a well-recognised social problem, can interfere with the student's adaptation during their academic lives. This study assessed the prevalence of FV against Saudi female university students. A convenient sample technique was used to recruit a total of 824 female students to fill a self-administered questionnaire. About 20% of the participants experienced FV. Nearly 54% and 28.2% of them talked about the incident with family member and physician, respectively. Parenteral psychological abuse was the most common way of exposure (55%). The psychological impacts of FV were the most experienced effect in the form of stress (86.25%) and sleep disturbance (72.4%). Ignoring the incident (75.6%) was the most preferred students' response. Studying in science-related specialities, achieving low-grade point of achievement, and living with families increased students' exposure to FV. This study sheds light on FV problem among university female students in Saudi population and urges the Student's University Counselling Center to reach and give life-long support of abused students, hence ensuring their psychological health and safety. Clinical Trial Registration Number H-01-R-059-19-0236.

Intimate partner and family violence (IPFV) is highly prevalent among tertiary students in Australia and internationally. Yet, relatively little is known about the help-seeking patterns of student victim-survivors and how these patterns vary cross-culturally. This study examined formal help-seeking needs, behaviors, and barriers among women tertiary students in Australia who had experienced IPFV and cross-cultural differences therein. Cross-sectional survey data were collected from adult women studying at tertiary education institutions across Australia. Those who reported IPFV (physical, sexual, psychological, and/or financial) victimization during their adult lives were included in this study (N = 1,606). Descriptive statistics were calculated for the full sample and by cultural identity. A series of logistic regression analyses was conducted to assess associations between culture and help-seeking, unadjusted and adjusted for sociodemographic factors (gender identity, age, area, employment, and institution type). Less than half (48.7%) of participants had sought formal help, despite a larger proportion (66.2%) perceiving a need for such help. Two thirds (65.5%) of participants reported barriers to help-seeking, which were predominantly attitudinal or normative in nature. Cultural identity was significantly associated with help-seeking in the unadjusted and adjusted analyses. Cultural minority students were generally less likely to perceive a need for help and to seek help than the majority. Continued efforts are needed to promote and facilitate formal help-seeking for IPFV among tertiary students, and particularly among cultural minority students. Further work is needed to understand the factors that contribute to cultural inequalities in help-seeking and to inform culturally responsive support services for student victim-survivors.
