Abstract

Students in postsecondary education are at high risk for experiencing relationship violence, including dating, domestic, and sexual violence. This can result in significant mental and physical health consequences. A relationship violence prevention program has been offered and evaluated for over 10 years at a Canadian university. It is based on a social–ecological model of violence prevention and best practices. Students who completed both pre- and post-program evaluations were used as their own controls to evaluate the effects of the program. Significant changes were noted for most aspects of the program in knowledge, attitudes, and behavioural intents each year, and these changes persisted for up to six months on most measures. The sample sizes were small and potentially overestimated the effect of the program if results were reported individually. Meta-analysis was used to pool the data and examine the effects of the program across the decade. The results indicated that the program was effective in changing knowledge, attitudes, and behavioural intents immediately following the program, but there were insufficient paired data to conduct six-month meta-analyses. Suggestions are made for future programs and further research.

“加紧”:预防关系暴力的十年
接受高等教育的学生经历关系暴力的风险很高,包括约会、家庭暴力和性暴力。这可能导致严重的精神和身体健康后果。在加拿大的一所大学,一项关系暴力预防计划已经提供并评估了10多年。它以预防暴力的社会生态模式和最佳做法为基础。完成计划前后评估的学生被用作他们自己的对照来评估计划的效果。每年,在知识、态度和行为意图方面,该计划的大多数方面都发生了重大变化,这些变化在大多数测量中持续了长达六个月。样本量很小,如果单独报告结果,可能会高估该计划的效果。荟萃分析用于汇集数据并检查该计划在十年中的效果。结果表明,该计划在改变知识、态度和行为意图方面是有效的,但没有足够的配对数据来进行为期六个月的荟萃分析。对今后的项目和进一步研究提出了建议。
