Welcome to the Dating Violence Prevention Lab.



The dating violence prevention team runs a research lab supervised by Dr. Emilio Ulloa.  We are located at San Diego State University.  We are dedicated to the prevention of intimate partner violence in dating relationships.  We feel that this is a worthy endeavor because despite a robust line of research, dating violence remains a problem in today's society and victims of violence are more likely to be victims of numerous health, emotional, and psychological problems.  If you are a victim, there is help!  Click here for more information.  If you are interested in becoming a part of our research team click here; we are always looking for good students and researchers to join us!  Click on the buttons to left for more information about the research, lab, lab activities, research team, and resources.

We are located on the basement floor of the North Life Science Building in LS-1, inside the undergraduate advising office (LS-3).
