Therefore, this research explores the frequency with which 295 males, aged between 15 and 18, exercise and suffer violence in their dating relationships. It was used the Violence in Adolescents’ Dating Relationships Inventory which pointe out a greater frequency of responses in the violence suffered about control and isolation compared to the rest of the verbal, physical and sexual behaviors. There was a significant positive association between the duration of the relationship and relationship satisfaction, and between the perpetration and victimization of control and isolation behaviors. There was a negative correlation between the satisfaction of the relationship and the suffered severe direct violence. The results suggest a possible bidirectionality of dating violence. On the other hand, higher satisfaction levels of the relationship are associated with lower levels of violence. The results are discussed from a relational and inclusive gender perspective. Estudios recientes sobre violencia en el noviazgo han sugerido que ambos sexos pueden ser agresores o receptores de violencia. Por ello este estudio explora la frecuencia con que 295 varones, con edades entre 15 y 18 años, ejercen y sufren violencia en sus relaciones de noviazgo. Se aplicó la escala Violence in Adolescents’ Dating Relationships Inventory que indicó mayor frecuencia de respuesta en la violencia sufrida de control y aislamiento en comparación con la violencia verbal, física y sexual. Se halló asociación significativa positiva entre la duración de la relación y la satisfacción con la misma, y entre la perpetración y victimización de conductas de control y aislamiento; también se encontró una correlación negativa entre la satisfacción de la relación y la violencia sufrida directa severa. Los resultados sugieren una posible bidireccionalidad de la violencia en el noviazgo. Por otro lado, mayores niveles satisfacción de la relación se asocian a menores niveles de violencia. Se discuten los resultados desde una perspectiva relacional e inclusiva de género.
