Dating Relationship can be defined as initial phase in which two people are affectionately involved primarily with an intention to assess each other's suitability as a partner in an intimate relationship. Though young adults are involved in dating relationship but they experience violence in their relation. There are majorly 3 dimensions of violence: Physical, Sexual and Emotional. So, this research has been planned to determine the percentage of young adults who are in a relationship and whether they are experiencing violence in their dating relationship. If there is violence then what are the reasons behind continuing such relationship. To study this, a questionnaire consisting of 63 items was prepared and was given to 155 college students of age group 19-24 years. The data analysis of research showed that the young adults are facing violence in their dating relationship. Among the 3 dimensions of violence, 66.4% of young adults are facing physical violence 36% of young adults are facing emotional violence 18.96% of young adults are facing sexual violence. It was also found that; though these people are facing violence in their relationship they are still continuing the relationship due to the emotional support, which they get from their partners.Keywords

Diabetes mellitus is a common and serious health issue in older people and there is a significant and troubling association between diabetes mellitus (DM) and functional impairment in the elderly. Diabetes is also often associated with a lower rate of health recovery and with a feeling of weakness. Individuals with DM are prone to functional disability due to many reasons such as decreased sensorimotor function, neuromuscular/ musculoskeletal deficits, foot and body pain and pharmacological and related complications. Physical activity is recommended by physicians and clinicians to type- II diabetic elderly patients, as it increases sensitivity to insulin. To implement preventive policies for reduction in functional disability in older diabetic people, the role of diabetes in the disability process should be investigated. DM is consistently associated with a greater prevalence of functional impairment as well as with a progression in disability states and may be considered as a brake on recovery phase. This association is partially explained by existing complications, associated conditions (obesity, hypertension and depression), treatment burden and other social characteristics (lower income and lower educational level). In this review, our aim is to describe the role of DM in the functional disability in older people and to identify possibilities of functional disability prevention in elderly people. Thus, DM may be considered as a frailty factor in geriatric population. However, the reasons and mechanisms of these deleterious effects of diabetes on functional inability need to be clarified.Keywords
