Abstract

LOPEZ-CEPERO BORREGO, Javier; RODRIGUEZ FRANCO, Luis; RODRIGUEZ DIAZ, Francisco Javier  and  MOLLEDA, Carolina Bringas. Dating violence: A bibliographic and bibliometric review. Arq. bras. psicol. [online]. 2014, vol.66, n.1, pp.1-17. ISSN 1809-5267.

The abusive dynamics during adolescence and early adulthood may foster violence in adult relationships. Hence the priority to develop assessment tools for the early intervention. Our study addresses two objectives: a bibliometric analysis (productivity by year of publication, country, language, source and authorship) and a study of content (creating a system of categories based on the most frequently used keywords, and analyzing the contributions of the most prolific authors) on the literature. We included a total of 1724 articles published between 2000 and 2010 that presented dating violence and/or intimate partner violence among their keyword field. We found an upward trend in yearly productivity; a dominance of U.S as country of publication; English as the language of choice; a high presence of studies focusing on female samples, and a high interest of the most prolific authors for the consequences of the partner violence might have on victims. Results are discussed

Keywords : Dating violence; Intimate partner violence; Bibliometric analysis; Bibliographic analysis.
