“…Moreover, despite the overall comprehensiveness of the instrument, victimization experiences of all children were assessed using brief screeners and a limited number of follow-up questions that might misclassify episodes that would be evaluated differently based on more complete information. Nonetheless, the findings of the current study that victimizations of a diverse variety occur frequently in the lives of children are consistent with earlier literature (Boney-McCoy & Finkelhor, 1995b;Brown & Bzostek, 2003;Finkelhor & Hashima, 2001;Singer et al, 1995) and have implications for practitioners, researchers, and policy makers. One implication is the need to question clients, patients, and research participants about a broader spectrum of specific victimization experiences.…”

“…Studies typically assess the experiences of only teenagers (Fox & Leavitt, 1995;Hastings & Kelley, 1997;Singer et al, 1995) or, more unusually, only elementary school-age children (Fox & Leavitt, 1995;Hill, Levermore, Twaite, & Jones, 1996;Richters, Martinez, & Valla, 1990). This can lead to the misperception that crime primarily occurs to teenagers.…”

“…Studies typically document the frequency of such victimizations and the association of such experiences with adverse physical, psychological, and social outcomes (DuRant, Getts, Cadenhead, Emans, & Woods, 1995;Fantuzzo et al, 1991;Singer, Anglin, Song, & Lunghofer, 1995).…”

“…Future studies on combat-related PTSD should examine the interaction between sex and combat exposure in combat-related PTSD. Just as male combat veterans typically experience more severe combat exposure than do their female counterparts, female nonsexual assault victims are more likely than male participants to be assaulted by a family member or intimate partner (Singer, Anglin, Song, & Lunghofer, 1995;Vrana & Lauterbach, 1994) and to sustain more serious injury as a result of such violence (Cantos, Neidig, & O'Leary, 1994;Cascardi, Langhinrichsen, & Vivian, 1992). Among participants reporting child sexual abuse, male participants are more likely than female participants to report the use of physical force or threats during the abuse (Finkelhor, Hotaling, Lewis, & Smith, 1990;Fritz, Stoll, & Wagner, 1981;Risin & Koss, 1987), which may, in turn, lead to a greater risk of psychological disturbance (Roesler & McKenzie, 1994).…”

Meta-analyses of studies yielding sex-specific risk of potentially traumatic events (PTEs) and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) indicated that female participants were more likely than male participants to meet criteria for PTSD, although they were less likely to experience PTEs. Female participants were more likely than male participants to experience sexual assault and child sexual abuse, but less likely to experience accidents, nonsexual assaults, witnessing death or injury, disaster or fire, and combat or war. Among victims of specific PTEs (excluding sexual assault or abuse), female participants exhibited greater PTSD. Thus, sex differences in risk of exposure to particular types of PTE can only partially account for the differential PTSD risk in male and female participants.

“…Por otra parte Vizcarra & Póo (2011), en un estudio realizado en la región de la Araucanía, señalan que un número significativo de estudiantes (57%) refiere haber sufrido algún episodio de violencia psicológica y 26% de violencia física leve de parte de su pareja. A su vez, 32% reconoce haber ejercido violencia psicológica y 8,1% violencia física, alguna vez en la vida.Con respecto al impacto de la violencia en los jóvenes, distintos estudios han descritos la presencia de trastornos depresivos, deterioro de la autoestima, de la confianza y del sentimiento de seguridad, sentimientos de culpa, aislamiento, bajo rendimiento académico y mayor riesgo de consumo abusivo de substancias (O´Keefe, Brockopp & Chew, 1986;Póo & Vizcarra, 2008;Singer, Anglin, Song & Lunghofer, 1995). Las consecuencias para quienes ejercen violencia son: riesgo de ruptura de la relación, sentimientos de vergüenza, rechazo y condena social, así como el riesgo de repetir el modelo de interacción violenta en futuras relaciones (Glass, Freland, Campbell, Yonas, Sharp & Kub, 2003).…”

AbstractThis paper describes the design, implementación and evaluation of the program "Building a healthy relationship," for higher education students. The program aims to prevent dating violence through the development of knowledge, attitudes and skills that enable them to build a relationship based on equality and mutual respect. The program consists of 5 modules and 14 weekly sessions, and was implemented as an elective course for students of the Universidad de La Frontera (Chile).The evaluation results indicate that the design is appropriate to the users' profile, the implementation assessment shows adequacy of contents and teaching methodology. The evaluation of students learning outcome revealed a significant increase in knowledge about dating violence, communication and nonviolent conflicto resolutions strategies and moderate increase rejection of violence, which remained 6 months after the end of the program. IntroducciónLa violencia en el noviazgo o "dating violence" como se conoce en los países anglosajones, se define como abuso físico, emocional y sexual en una relación romántica estable en que no existe vínculo legal ni cohabitación (Ruiz & Fawcett, 1999). Los estudios internacionales y nacionales sobre este tema demuestran que afecta un nú-mero significativo de jóvenes (Straus, 2004). En Chile una encuesta realizada por el Instituto Nacional de la Juventud en el año 2006, indicó que 13,4% de los jóvenes reconoce haber sufrido violencia psicológica y 7,6% violencia física, no existiendo mayor diferencia entre hombres y mujeres (Instituto Nacional de la Juventud, 2001). Por otra parte Vizcarra & Póo (2011), en un estudio realizado en la región de la Araucanía, señalan que un número significativo de estudiantes (57%) refiere haber sufrido algún episodio de violencia psicológica y 26% de violencia física leve de parte de su pareja. A su vez, 32% reconoce haber ejercido violencia psicológica y 8,1% violencia física, alguna vez en la vida.Con ...
