Resumo: Research on intimate violence has pointed out the importance of prevention in younger populations. Two experiences of dating violence prevention are described. Aims: (1) promoting the acquisition of knowledge about this problem, (2) enabling youths to recognize abuse in close relationships; (3) producing changes in cultural beliefs that support violence; (4) providing generic abilities to manage situations of dating violence; (5) informing about resources in the community. The beliefs of the participants were assessed in two moments - pre-test and post-test - and in one of the programs it was also possible to include a follow-up evaluation. The qualitative evaluation of the program made by the participants was also considered. The evaluation of these interventions shows that the intervention reduces the level of tolerance towards violence in both males and females. At the end of the paper major limitations are discussed, as well strategies to minimize these problems in future research.

Se describe una experiencia de prevención en ese dominio. Los objetivos fueron promover la adquisición de conocimientos acerca del fenómeno; capacitar para el reconocimiento de situaciones íntimas abusivas; identificar y producir cambios en las creencias socio-culturales que sustentan ese tipo de violencia; desarrollar competencias para administrar una situación de violencia por la pareja; informar acerca de los recursos en la comunidad. Los dos ensayos desarrollados fueron evaluados en diferentes momentos (pré y póst-test) y un de los ensayos incluyó también una evaluación follow-up. Una evaluación cualitativa del programa fue también considerada. En la evaluación de la eficacia de estas intervenciones concluimos que las acciones desarrolladas tienen efectos positivos para ambos sexos, traduciéndose en una menor tolerancia de los participantes frente a la violencia. Al concluir reflexionamos sobre las limitaciones de este tipo de acción y presentamos formas de perfeccionar la prevención junto a los jóvenes.A investigação da violência no namoro tem demonstrado a importância da prevenção junto das populações juvenis. Descreve-se uma experiência de prevenção nesse domínio. Os objetivos foram promover a aquisição de conhecimentos acerca do fenômeno; capacitar para o reconhecimento de situações íntimas abusivas; identificar e produzir mudanças nas crenças sócio-culturais que sustentam esse tipo de violência; desenvolver competências para gerir uma situação de violência pelo parceiro; informar acerca dos recursos na comunidade. Os dois ensaios desenvolvidos foram avaliados em diferentes momentos (pré e pós-teste) e um dos ensaios incluiu ainda uma avaliação follow-up. Uma avaliação qualitativa do programa foi também considerada. Na avaliação da eficácia destas intervenções concluímos que as ações desenvolvidas têm efeitos positivos para ambos os sexos, traduzindo-se numa menor tolerância dos participantes face à violência. A concluir, refletimos sobre as limitações deste tipo de ações e apresentamos formas de aperfeiçoar a prevenção junto dos jovens.Editora Mackenzie2006-01-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttp://editorarevistas.mackenzie.br/index.php/ptp/article/view/1018Journal Psychology: Theory and Practice ; Vol. 8 No. 1 (2006); 55-75Revista Psicologia: Teoría y Práctica; Vol. 8 Núm. 1 (2006); 55-75Revista Psicologia: Teoria e Prática; v. 8 n. 1 (2006); 55-751980-69061516-3687reponame:Psicologia (Universidade Presbiteriana Mackenzie.
