目的：通过将性受害、伤害和恐惧数据纳入青少年约会暴力(TDV)评分，评估不同操作的青少年约会暴力(TDV)对发生率和性别模式的影响。我们还比较了TDV与其他类型受害者在恐惧报告中的性别差异。方法：对1,680名12-17岁的青少年进行电话访谈，参加全国儿童暴力暴露调查。结果：根据纳入标准的不同，总的TDV发生率从1.4%到7.5%不等。女青年的比例从1.9%的伤害性暴力到高达6.3%的身体或性暴力报告不等。青年男性的比例从最低的1.0%的伤害性暴力到最高的8.6%的身体或性暴力不等。尽管最常见的TDV手术，任何身体力量，导致男性(7.9%)比女性(4.5%)受害的比率更高，但大多数其他定义导致女性的受害比率高于男性。TDV的定义是任何性、身体伤害或导致恐惧的事件产生的女性被害率为5.1%，男性被害率为3.1%。对TDV事件的恐惧报告显示，在整个全国儿童接触暴力调查中，性别差异最大。许多其他类型的受害者被男性和女性视为类似的恐惧诱导者。结论：IPV研究将受益于操作和测量方法的更大多样性。使用筛查器和后续行动是获得更多事件细节的一种实用替代方案。TDV可能比其他形式的青年受害行为更难以性别平等的方式进行评估。
Objective: To assess the impact of different operationalizations of teen dating violence (TDV) on rates and gender patterns by incorporating sexual victimization, injury, and fear data into TDV scores. We also compare gender differences in fear reports for TDV with other victimization types. Method: Youth aged 12 to 17 (n = 1,680) were interviewed by telephone for the National Survey of Children's Exposure to Violence. Results: Depending on the inclusion criteria applied, the overall TDV rate varied from 1.4% to 7.5%. Rates for female youth ranged from 1.9% for injurious violence to a high of 6.3% for any report of physical or sexual force. Rates for male youth ranged from a low of 1.0% for injurious violence to a high of 8.6% for any report of physical or sexual force. Although the most common TDV operationalization, any physical force, resulted in a higher rate of male (7.9%) than female (4.5%) victimization, most other definitions resulted in a higher rate for females than males. TDV defined as any sexual, physically injurious, or fear-inducing incidents produced a female victimization rate of 5.1% and a male victimization rate of 3.1%. Fear reports to TDV incidents showed the largest gender difference in the entire National Survey of Children's Exposure to Violence. Many other victimization types were viewed as similarly fear-inducing by males and females. Conclusions: IPV research would benefit from a greater diversity of approaches to operationalization and measurement. The use of screeners plus follow-ups is one practical alternative that obtains more incident details. TDV may be more difficult to assess in gender-equivalent ways than other forms of youth victimization.
