abstract="OBJECTIVE: To examine preservice teachers' perceived confidence in teaching violence prevention and the potential effect of violence-prevention training on preservice teachers' confidence in teaching violence prevention. METHODS: Six Ohio universities participated in the study. More than 800 undergraduate and graduate students completed surveys. RESULTS: Violence-prevention training, area of certification, and location of student- teaching placement significantly influenced preservice teachers' perceived confidence in teaching violence prevention. CONCLUSION: Violence-prevention training positively influences preservice teachers' confidence in teaching violence prevention. The results suggest that such training should be considered as a requirement for teacher preparation programs.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
