青少年一天中的一个重要部分包括使用技术，如手机通话、即时消息和在社交网站上发帖。虽然研究已经证明了技术使用的好处，但也有显着的缺点。例如，最近的研究表明，青少年使用技术来骚扰和虐待他人，包括约会伙伴。然而，关于技术使用和约会暴力在夫妻关系的不同阶段如何交叉以及这种交叉对男孩和女孩是否不同，仍然存在问题。这篇文章开始填补这些空白，提出了39个高中年龄的青少年，他们都经历了在过去的一年中有问题的关系焦点小组的调查结果。结果显示，青少年使用技术来发起和解除约会关系，通常是通过短信或社交网站上的帖子。技术的使用也会引起嫉妒，它被用来监视和隔离合作伙伴。强调了技术使用方面的性别差异。最后，对青少年和家长的预防方案的建议进行了讨论。
A significant part of an adolescent's day includes the use of technology, such as cell phone calls, instant messaging, and posts to social networking sites. Although studies have documented the benefits of technology use, there are significant downsides as well. For example, recent studies have shown that adolescents use technology to harass and abuse others, including dating partners. However, questions remain on how technology use and dating violence intersect at different stages in the couple's relationship and whether this intersection is different for boys and girls. This article begins to fill these gaps by presenting the findings from focus groups with 39 high school aged adolescents, all of whom had experienced a problematic relationship in the past year. Results showed that adolescents used technology to initiate and dissolve dating relationships, often with text messages or posts to social networking sites. Technology use also caused jealousy, and it was used to monitor and isolate partners from others. Gender differences in the use of technology are highlighted. Finally, recommendations for prevention programs for adolescents and parents are discussed.
