Understanding the attitudes and perspectives of adolescents towards IPV can help in its prevention. The study aimed to assess the knowledge about various domains of IPV and self-reported prediction of perpetrating IPV among adolescents in Madurai city, South India.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Methods<\/jats:title>\n Students pursuing engineering, medicine and humanities were recruited conveniently. A structured self-administered questionnaire developed to cater to the objectives was used. After descriptive analysis, a modified Poisson regression with robust variance estimation was used to identify factors associated with one\u2019s self-reported prediction of becoming an IPV perpetrator and adjusted relative risks [0.95 confidence interval (CI)] were calculated. The project was approved by the Institute\u2019s Ethics Committee.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n Of the 369 students, 40% were aware of IPV prevalence among women in India. About 85% agreed with societally prescribed gender roles. More males than females found gender roles manifesting as IPV acceptable (p = 0.003). Only 6.8%, more females than males (p = 0.01), believed that no violence is permissible in intimate relationships. About 55% definitely did not foresee themselves becoming IPV perpetrators. Belief in gender roles [odds ratio (OR) = 3.85; 95% CI: 1.26, 11.74] and being a professional course student (2.48; 1.25, 4.91) were significantly associated with foreseeing oneself as an IPV perpetrator.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n Knowledge about IPV and its redressal mechanisms among adolescents is poor. A significant proportion of them believe in gender roles and perceive violence within an intimate relationship as acceptable. Positively influencing adolescents\u2019 beliefs in gender roles may help to control IPV and nurture healthier relationships.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1515\/ijamh-2018-0207","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,2,1]],"date-time":"2019-02-01T06:03:13Z","timestamp":1549000993000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Will I, Wont I?
