This research aims to uncover and explore more deeply the cases of dating violence that are rampant among university students in Malang City, East Java. This research focuses on women who experience psychosocial problems in early adulthood as a result of dating violence during adolescence. We conducted this descriptive-qualitative research using a case study method, employing the snowball technique to recruit seven female students as informants. Observation and interviewing are the techniques used in data collection. We analyzed the field data from the interview process in three stages: data condensation, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results of this research indicate that there are seven female students in Malang City who experienced dating violence in their teenage years. Verbal-emotional violence includes a variety of behaviors, such as name-calling, intimidating looks, monopolizing a partner's time, manipulation, making threats, and breaking treasured items, among others. Sexual violence includes rape, unwanted kissing and touching, and revenge porn. Meanwhile, physical violence occurs when the perpetrator pushes, hits, and controls the victim's body until it leaves marks, with the aim of dominating the relationship. College students who are victims of dating violence often experience psychosocial problems in their early adulthood. These problems can include excessive fear, irritability, difficulty concentrating, doubt or feeling inferior, feeling disappointed or self-hatred, becoming more aggressive, moody, feeling hopeless and helpless, body image disturbances, ineffective coping, ineffective family coping, trust issues, commitment issues, anti-social behavior, and physical reactions such as heart palpitations, muscle tension, headaches, and psychosomatic symptoms
