背景资料：《家庭暴力预防法》于2001年在日本生效，但只涵盖婚姻伴侣暴力和离婚后伴侣暴力，不承认亲密伴侣暴力。本研究的目的是确定日本大学生对亲密伴侣的骚扰经历，以及对骚扰作为IPV的认识。方法：在日本都道府县首府城市的大一学生中进行了关于亲密伴侣骚扰经历的自填式问卷调查，作为横断面研究。结果：共有274名学生参加了本研究。大约一半的受试者（包括男性和女性学生）至少经历过一次亲密伴侣的骚扰或受到过亲密伴侣的骚扰。然而，研究参与者并不认为言语骚扰、控制亲密伴侣的活动和无保护的性交是暴力。参加讲座/研讨会有关家庭暴力和约会暴力的经验并没有有助于适当的求助behavior.Conclusions：教育计划，有关骚扰和暴力预防和适当的求助行为，应提供在青春期早期，以避免青少年IPV。
Background: The Domestic Violence Prevention Act came into effect in Japan in 2001, but covers only marriage partner violence and post-divorce partner violence, and does not recognize intimate partner violence (IPV). The present study was performed to determine the experience of harassment, both toward and from an intimate partner, and recognition of harassment as IPV among Japanese university students.Methods: A self-administered questionnaire survey regarding the experience of harassment involving an intimate partner was conducted as a cross-sectional study among freshman students in a prefectural capital city in Japan.Results: A total of 274 students participated in the present study. About half of the subjects (both male and female students) had experience of at least one episode of harassment toward or had been the recipient of harassment from an intimate partner. However, the study participants did not recognize verbal harassment, controlling activities of an intimate partner, and unprotected sexual intercourse as violence. Experience of attending a lecture/seminar about domestic violence and dating violence did not contribute to appropriate help-seeking behavior.Conclusions: An educational program regarding harassment and violence prevention and appropriate help-seeking behavior should be provided in early adolescence to avoid IPV among youth.
