Book excerpt: Rates of collegiate relationship violence are at an all-time high (Breiding, 2015). Although colleges and universities are taking steps towards reducing these rates, recent research has uncovered a fatal flaw in their methods: terminology. Lederman and Stewart (2003) surveyed relationship violence prevention campaigns across college campuses, finding 'domestic violence' as the most widely used name for collegiate relationship violence, yet also the one college students were least comfortable with using. 298 students at a large, southeastern university completed a survey through the online distribution tool Qualtrics. Using a basic 1-7 Likert Scale, students were asked to rate the appropriateness of the following terms: domestic violence, dating violence, dating abuse, intimate partner violence, intimate terrorism, and common couple violence. Findings indicate that students were significantly more likely to attribute the terms domestic violence, dating violence, and dating abuse to a situation if the perpetrator of violence was male rather than female. When partners were dating, students felt most comfortable with the terms 'dating violence' and 'dating abuse.' Most importantly, terminology was found to be correlated with perceptions of severity, blame, and recommendations for bystander action. Ultimately, this study suggests that schemas surround each possible relationship violence term, and offers the idea that simply adjusting what college student deem as 'domestic violence' could unlock the key to bystander intervention efforts and violence reduction in the future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dating violence is a serious public health and safety problem in colleges and universities. Due to its prevalence, many universities and colleges across the nation have started to implement programs for the prevention and intervention of dating violence. Dating violence can have serious implications in students’ health that can affect their academic success. College students who experience dating violence are at higher risk to develop depression, anxiety, and posttraumatic stress. Studies have demonstrated that students who experience dating violence usually disclose it to peers and friends, but oftentimes their peers do not have the necessary skills to be able to help them. This was an exploratory study, which used a convenient sample comprised of 53 student leaders from an urban community college. Most of the participants were second year students, they were mostly vii females (n = 24) and males (n = 27), between the ages of 18 through 27 years old, mostly heterosexual, White and Hispanic/Latino. The participants held leadership roles as courseembedded tutors and lead peer mentors on campus. This study measured their perceptions and knowledge about dating violence. To measure these two variables (perceptions and knowledge), the researcher used two questionnaires that were previously used by Khubchandani et al (2012) to assess high school counselors' knowledge, training, perceptions, and practices on dealing with dating violence. To fit with this current study, the researcher made one modification to the perceptions’ questionnaire. The modification consisted of changing the words “school counselors” to “student leaders.” Descriptive and frequency statistics were calculated and measured participants’ perceptions and knowledge about dating violence. Statistical findings suggested that participants were willing to help in the prevention and intervention of dating violence in the community college by learning strategies in the prevention and intervention of dating violence. However, statistical findings demonstrated that participants significantly lacked knowledge about what constitutes dating violence. This study also included a short questionnaire with demographical questions that analyzed gender differences between females and males’ scores from bot questionnaires. Independent sample t-tests were calculated and findings demonstrated that there were no statistical gender differences between participants for neither the perceptions questionnaire nor the knowledge questionnaire about dating violence.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dating violence among college students, whether physical, sexual, or psychological is a serious problem with limited legal resources available for victims. Studies have shown that one in four undergraduate students is in an abusive dating relationship. In Kentucky, individuals in a dating relationship are not eligible to receive civil protective orders, leaving them without legal protection from abusive partners. A fifty-question survey was administered to 200 students enrolled in Justice Administration courses at the University of Louisville to determine what demographic factors might be related to attitudes toward abuse in dating relationships and whether or not dating partners should have legal protection from such abuse. The findings suggested that the gender of the perpetrator as well as gender of the respondent were related to perceptions of reported attitudes toward dating abuse but none of the demographic factors measured predicted attitudes toward legal protections defined as the use of Emergency Protective Orders (EPO's) in cases of abuse.

Book excerpt: Previous research has indicated few victims of dating violence seek help for abuse or violence experienced in the hands of a dating partner, a failure that has led to rising healthcare costs and unreported crime. Attachment theory and the social support network orientation model have been used in understanding differences in attachment style and help-seeking behavior among individuals seeking help for medical and psychological problems, but the differences in these variables among victims of dating violence have not been examined. The purpose of this quantitative web-based study was to examine differences in type of abuse or violence experienced, attachment style, and help-seeking behavior between collegiate male and female victims of dating violence in heterosexual and same-sex relationships. A sample of 149 collegiate males and females involved in heterosexual and same-sex relationships completed the Revised Conflict Tactics Scale (CTS2), the Relationship Scales Questionnaire (RSQ), and the General Help Seeking Questionnaire (GHSQ)/Actual Help Seeking Questionnaire (AHSQ) to measure the effect of the independent variables, gender and sexual orientation, on the dependent variables, type of abuse or violence experienced, attachment style, and help-seeking behavior. The results of the MANOVA and chi-square analyses revealed: (a) no significant effect between one's gender and sexual orientation and type of abuse or violence experienced and style of attachment, (b) male and female victims of dating violence in same-sex relationships were less likely to seek help from formal sources than male and female victims in heterosexual relationships, and (c) type of actual help secured is independent of help-seeking behavior, The results of this study demonstrate a need for social change in the way victimization by dating violence is perceived and may aid helping professionals in developing culturally sensitive screening tools to identify and assist a population who might not otherwise seek help.
