Violence is one of the most common manifestations of subordination, domination and control of subjects over others, and in its different expressions it has been present in social interaction throughout history. Intimate partner violence is one of the classifications of this fact and the object of this study. Gender violence is characterized by the presence of this coercion in the sphere of couple relationships, being, unfortunately, the woman in a higher percentage the recurrent victim of these unequal relationships. An important cause of this fact is the subjective difference established between the sexes. It does not seem to respect age, social class or level of education, being present in various contexts and environments in which people develop. Therefore, the objective of the research was to determine the prevalence of violence in intimate partner relationships in students of the careers of Psychopedagogy and Educational Psychology of the Universidad Central del Ecuador. This study was developed under a quantitative, descriptive, documentary and field approach. The results identified the naturalization of violence in the study population, most of whom reported having experienced violence in their relationships. The main etiology was attributed to the cultural factor, and it was found that psychological and sexual violence had the highest prevalence.
