Abstract

In Panama, we found few studies on teen dating violence, so nowadays it is difficult to establish its severity and prevalence in adolescent couples. The present study aims to characterize the beliefs and attitudes of a sample of 33 Panamanian students about violent behavior in relationships. A questionnaire designed for the purpose of research that measures four dimensions was applied. The dimensions where: attitudes toward relationships, physical violence, respect and communication (belonging to psychological) and self-esteem.
The main factors associated with violence found in the sample of adolescents are the abilities to communicate, accompanied by myths and stereotypes aimed to justify violence in the relationship.
