Abstract

CARIDADE, Sónia; SAAVEDRA, Rosa  and  MACHADO, Carla. Práticas de prevenção da violência nas relações de intimidade juvenil: Orientações gerais. Aná. Psicológica [online]. 2012, vol.30, n.1-2, pp.131-142. ISSN 0870-8231.

The prevention of violence in intimate relationships has for long been neglected under the intervention and research on this topic. Despite the delay in the proliferation of these efforts, the international scientific world recently presented several model prevention programs directed to the youth population as a primary prevention scheme, establishing promising results. With this article, we intend to analyze the state of the art in terms of international and national practices in the prevention of violence in intimate relationships. We also intend to, based on scientific knowledge in this area, make some general recommendations and, more specifically, recommendations on the components to focus on the development of prevention programs. Suggestions for future challenges in the field of prevention of violence in intimate relationships will also be discussed.

Keywords : Intimate violence; Juveniles; Prevention.
