Abstract
The United Nations (UN) defines violence in dating relationships as any violent act that generates physical and psychosexual damage to the victim, including threats of death or deprivation of the autonomy that he or she has as a person, whether produced in the public or private. The objective of this research is to analyze violence in dating relationships among adolescents between 13 and 19 years old in the Casa Bonita neighborhood in southern Esmeraldas. A quantitative study with a descriptive and transversal approach was carried out, with a deductive method, in a sample made up of 20 participants who met the inclusion criteria, using a structured survey based on the violence meter and designed with the Likert scale model. The results showed that 40% of the sample were between 13 and 16 years old. Regardingthe signs of violence in adolescent dating, 80% of the participants considered that these elements are fear of retaliation, family pressure, followed by 70% of adolescents who feel shame before society; 65% indicated that low self-esteem is a clear example of being a victim of violence. The signs that describe the presence of violence in adolescent dating are fear of retaliation, family pressure, shame in society, low self-esteem, emotional dependence and believe that the aggressor will change; The types of violence that frequently occur in dating relationships between adolescents between 13 and 18 years of age, with equal weight, are physical violence and psychological violence.
