  • The purpose of this thesis was the Design, Implementation and Evaluation of an education program to prevent dating violence. The first part of the study corresponds to the theoretical study which is divided into 4 chapters. The first describe the concept of dating violence that is defined as "physical, emotional and sexual abuse in a stable romantic relationship where there is no legal relationship or cohabitation (Ruiz & Fawcett, 1999). Chapter 2 and 3 reviewed prevalence studies in different countries, models developed to explain dating violence as the physical and psychological consequences of violence. Chapter 4 critically examines intervention strategies used to address this phenomenon. Second part corresponds to the empirical study which is divided into 3 stages: a) Phase I Needs Assessment b) Phase II Design, implementation and evaluation of the program c) Phase III Evaluation of results and design of the final program. In the first phase of needs analysis three data collection instruments were used: a questionnaire administered to 447 students at the University of La Frontera in Temuco, 4 focus group and three focused interviews. Based on the results of the empirical study and the theoretical framework, a program whose objective was "to encourage the participants to develop a culture of respect and fairness in excluding dating violence” was developed. The program consists of 5 modules: Conceptual bases of violence. Healthy relationships: the importance of communication, Self-knowledge and Emotional expression, Resolving conflicts in a non-violent way and Integration of learning. Implementation was carried out as an elective course with 31 undergraduate students from the Universidad de la Frontera in Chile. To evaluate implementation three techniques were used: A checklist that students completed each session and at the end of the program, a focus group at the end of the program and field notes, completed by the thesis author. Outcome evaluation conducted at the end of the program used a questionnaire to measure knowledge and an attitude scale. Both instruments were applied to students who attend the program and to a comparison sample consisting of 31 students who did not followed the program. Evaluation of implementation and outcomes showed that the program meets the needs of the target population, is well accepted by students and produces changes related to increased knowledge and attitudes changes towards a less justification of violence.
