“…It should be noted that psychological violence was shown in the studies as the most frequent form of aggression reported and also the form of violence exercised in greater proportion by girls (Cascardi & Avery-Leaf, 2015;Ybarra, Espelage, Langhinrichsen-Rohling, Korchmaros, & Boyd, 2016). Studies also emphasized that violence in the couple was bidirectional at this stage (Borges & Dell'Aglio, 2017;Muñoz-Rivas, Graña et al, 2007;Rubio-Garay et al, 2017).…”

Dating violence is considered as a type of intimate partner violence (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2019) affecting adolescents and young people in relationships with different degree of formality (Vagi et al., 2013). Whereas the most classical definitions restricted the term to physical violence (Sugarman & Hotaling, 1989), the most widely accepted definitions today considered any act of psychological, sexual, or physical abuse as part of the violence in the courtship (Anderson & Danis, 2007; Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2019; Chen, Foshee, & McNaughton Reyes, 2016). In addition, some scholars restrict the term to current relationships (Anderson & Danis, 2007), while others extend it to appointments (Lavoie, Robitaille, & Hebert, 2000) or even terminated relationships (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2019). In this paper we adopt a broad view of this term, considering that any behaviour that damages the physical, psychological, or sexual integrity of a current or former partner in adolescence or youth is part of it. Lack of consensus of an operational definition of dating violence has made it difficult to provide data of the extent of the problem. Systematic reviews on the prevalence of dating violence revealed the extraordinary variability in the data provided by the studies, ranging from 0.4 to 95% h t t p s : / / j o u r n a l s. c o p m a d r i d. o rg / p i
