Objective: To determine the prevalence of dating violence among adolescents in Azogues. Methodology: This study is observational, descriptive, and cross-sectional, with a sample of 263 adolescents.

Of the participants, 61% were female, most identified as mestizo, 76% lived with their family, and 68% reported a middle socioeconomic status. Findings revealed that 33% experienced coercion in their relationships, 27% were subjected to sexual violence, 45% to humiliation, 63% to isolation, and 45% to physical violence. Significant differences were found in the mean scores across the five dimensions of violence, as well as correlations between physical violence and coercion and between coercion and humiliation.
