对成年人的研究报告不一致的结果，男性或女性是否更有可能使用暴力行为对他们的伴侣。虽然伴侣暴力通常始于青春期，但涉及青少年的约会暴力研究很少，按性别报告的研究结果更少。这项研究探讨了青少年约会暴力的性别差异。数据来自北卡罗来纳州一个主要农村学区81%的八年级和九年级青少年完成的自填问卷。研究结果表明：（1）女性对伴侣实施轻度、中度和重度暴力的比例高于男性;（2）女性对伴侣实施的暴力行为中，出于自卫的比例高于男性;（3）男性对伴侣实施的约会性暴力多于女性;（4）男性和女性对伴侣实施的轻度、中度和重度暴力比例相同;（5）女性比男性遭受更多的约会性暴力;（6）女性比男性遭受更多的伴侣心理虐待;（7）女性比男性遭受更多的约会暴力伤害。这些研究结果表明，青少年约会暴力预防计划是必要的，不像大多数约会暴力预防计划，男性和女性都应该接触到与受害和犯罪有关的活动。
Studies of adults report inconsistent findings as to whether males or females are more likely to use violent behaviors toward their partner. Although partner violence frequently begins during adolescence, few dating violence studies involve adolescents and even fewer report findings by gender. This study examines gender differences in adolescent dating violence. Data are from self-administered questionnaires completed by 81% of the adolescents in the eighth and ninth grades in a primarily rural school district in North Carolina. The significant findings are that (1) females perpetrate more mild, moderate and severe violence than males towards partners even when controlling for violence perpetrated in self-defense; (2) females perpetrate more violence than males out of self-defense; (3) males perpetrate more sexual dating violence than females; (4) males and females sustain equal amounts of mild, moderate and severe dating violence; (5) females sustain more sexual dating violence than males; (6) females sustain more psychological abuse than males from their partners; and (7) females receive more injuries than males from dating violence. These findings suggest that adolescent dating violence prevention programs are warranted and that unlike most dating violence prevention programs, both males and females should be exposed to activities related to victimization and perpetration.
