Some studies point to the relevance of investigating abuse in romantic relationships during adolescence, which has only begun to be investigated recently, compared to abuse in marriage. The objective of this study is to identify how mistreatment is presented in the couple and love styles in students of three levels of schooling that correspond to different stages of adolescence and early youth. We worked with a sample of 291 students, of which 107 were high school students, 60 high school students and 123 high school students, to whom the Love Attitudes Scale (EAA) (Hendrick and Hendrick, 1986) and the Questionnaire were applied of dating abuse (Osorio , 2014). Results show low levels of courtship abuse, which tend to increase in high school, as well as a predominance of the love styles of Agape, Eros and Storge in the three educational levels investigated. It also emphasizes that, in a general way, the presence of love styles Manía, Ágape and Ludus facilitate the presence of mistreatment in love relationships in adolescents of the school levels of the present study.

Keywords : adolescence; infatuation; love styles; courtship; violence.
