Title: Partner exploitation and violence in teenage intimate relationships
Summary: This study provides a detailed picture of the incidence and impact of teenage partner violence in Great Britain. 1,353 young people, between 13 and 17 years old from England, Scotland and Wales took part in the research survey and 91 young people took part in in-depth interviews. Although a body of evidence exists on adult experiences of domestic violence, very little is known about partner exploitation and violence in teenagers' own intimate relationships and encounters in the UK. The survey findings clearly show that violence in young people's intimate relationships should be viewed as a significant child welfare problem. The findings highlight a range of factors for prevention and intervention programmes.
