          Abstract

          Este artigo apresenta os resultados dos primeiros dados do Estudo Internacional de Violência no Namoro de 455 estudantes universitários do estado de São Paulo. Trata-se de uma pesquisa intercultural, cujo instrumento, “Revised Conflict Tactics Scale”, foi utilizado para avaliar a freqüência e o padrão da violência entre casais, bem como para examinar os tipos de negociação de conflito e os efeitos das diferenças socioculturais na etiologia da violência no namoro. As porcentagens revelam índices significativos de agressão entre parceiros, havendo uma prevalência na violência psicológica e coerção sexual quando comparadas à violência física. 78,6% das agressões físicas de maior severidade são práticas mútuas entre homens e mulheres. A presença dessa simetria de gêneros, associada aos dados que mostram que as mulheres são mais freqüentemente agredidas por seus parceiros, sugere atenção voltada a programas de prevenção para ambos, pois tais condições podem conduzir a uma escalada da violência nas diversas formas.

          Translated abstract

          With a sample of 455 university students of the State of São Paulo/Brazil the author presents the first data of the International Dating Violence Study. The present study is part of an intercultural research to evaluate and explore the frequency and patterns of violence among couples, as well to examine the type of conflict negotiation and its sociocultural effects in the etiology of dating violence. The used instrument was the “Revise Conflict Tactics Scale”. The findings revealed expressive indexes of aggression between partners with a prevalence of psychological abuse and sexual coercion if compared to physical abuse: 78% of high severity physical aggression are mutual practice among men and women. The presence of gender symmetry associated do data that show that women are more frequently abused by their partners, suggest the need of prevention programs for both, because the findings may lead to the escalation of violence in various forms.
