Dating violence at the Lisbon School of Education

Social, academic and media visibility and the political and legislative effort to regulate and prevent the phenomenon of violence in its multiple dimensions (gender, sexual, dating, intimacy, etc.) are currently a reality. Nonetheless, violence continues to be a complex phenomenon that is crossed by discourses and processes which enhance its invisibility, including in higher education. The mixed research carried out intended to characterize the phenomenon of dating violence, the prevalence of different types of abuse or violence, and analyse strategies for conflict resolution. The sample included 371 students from Lisbon School of Education, 324 female and 47 male, with an average age of 21.5 years. The data refer to the presence of dating violence, especially emotional or verbal, and for significant differences between young men and women.
