WOLFE, David A.; CROOKS, Claire V. e HUGHES, Raymond. The Fourth R: a school-based adolescent dating violence prevention program. Psychosocial Intervention [online]. 2011, vol.20, n.2, pp.193-200. ISSN 2173-4712. https://dx.doi.org/10.5093/in2011v20n2a7.
This paper presents a school-based primary prevention program (The Fourth R) to prevent adolescent dating violence, and related risk behaviors. The cornerstone of The Fourth R is a 21-lesson skillbased curriculum delivered by teachers who receive specialized training, that promotes healthy relationships, and targets violence, high-risk sexual behavior, and substance use among adolescents. The Fourth R was evaluated in a cluster randomized trial in 20 schools. Results indicated that teaching youth healthy relationships and skills as part of their curriculum reduced physical dating violence, and increased condom use 2.5 years later.
