A Qualitative Examination of Ethical and Legal Considerations Regarding Dating Violence
Sikes, April; Walley, Cynthia; Hays, Danica G.
Journal of Interpersonal Violence, v27 n8 p1474-1488 May 2012
Despite the increased attention to dating violence among adolescents and young adults, limited information is available on ethical and legal considerations specific to this population. Therefore, this qualitative study explores 21 trainees' and practitioners' conceptualization of ethical and legal issues pertaining to adolescent dating violence. Data are collected through focus groups included as part of an ethics and legal issues seminar. Six themes are identified to illustrate ethical and legal issues concerning dating violence: knowledge, client welfare, counseling interventions, informed consent and disclosure, barriers, and counselor reactions.
