青少年约会暴力的研究主要集中在家庭和同伴的影响,但很少有研究已经进行了暴力发生的关系环境。本研究探讨青少年浪漫关系的具体特点与身体暴力的犯罪。依靠对956名青少年样本的个人访谈,结果表明,自我报告暴力犯罪的受访者比非暴力同行更有可能报告更高水平的其他有问题的关系动态和行为,如嫉妒,言语冲突和欺骗。然而,我们发现没有显着差异的水平的爱,亲密的自我披露,或感知的合作伙伴关心,和暴力的关系,平均而言,其特点是更长的持续时间,更频繁的接触,性亲密和更高的分数上提供和接受的工具支持。最后,暴力与相对不利的权力平衡的看法有关,特别是在男性受访者中。这些发现使暴力关系中动态的传统观点复杂化,增加了我们对风险因素的理解,也可能揭示为什么一些青少年仍然处于身体虐待关系中。(C)2010年爱思唯尔公司All rights reserved.
Studies of teen dating violence have focused heavily on family and peer influences, but little research has been conducted on the relationship contexts within which violence occurs. The present study explores specific features of adolescent romantic relationships associated with the perpetration of physical violence. Relying on personal interviews with a sample of 956 adolescents, results indicate that respondents who self-report violence perpetration are significantly more likely than their non-violent counterparts to report higher levels of other problematic relationship dynamics and behaviors such as jealousy, verbal conflict, and cheating. However, we find no significant differences in levels of love, intimate self-disclosure, or perceived partner caring, and violent relationships are, on average, characterized by longer duration, more frequent contact, sexual intimacy and higher scores on the provision and receipt of instrumental support. Finally, violence is associated with the perception of a relatively less favorable power balance, particularly among male respondents. These findings complicate traditional views of the dynamics within violent relationships, add to our understanding of risk factors, and may also shed light on why some adolescents remain in physically abusive relationships.
