PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT Adolescent intimate partner violence (IPV) is a major public health problem in the United States. More than 60% of adolescents aged 12-18 in relationships report experiencing IPV (physical, sexual, and/or psychological abuse). Given the widespread prevalence and associated adverse outcomes, states are actively engaged in primary prevention strategies for reducing IPV, including the enactment and implementation of IPV laws. These state laws, which are rapidly expanding across the country, have the potential to alter the social context in which IPV occurs by encouraging or requiring school districts to adopt prevention education curricula and policies for addressing IPV. Such policies include definitions, training requirements for teachers and staff, and reporting procedures. Currently, 19 states have passed laws encouraging or mandating school IPV policies. Despite these laws gaining momentum in the past decade, there is a paucity of research examining the effectiveness of state laws and how schools implement policies to meet states’ legal mandates. The objectives of the proposed research in this Pathway to Independence Award are to determine if state IPV laws reduce the prevalence of adolescent IPV victimization and to assess if and how high schools implement these laws adequately. The specific aims are to: 1) estimate the effectiveness of state IPV laws on reducing the prevalence of adolescent IPV; 2) assess the implementation of IPV laws and the relationship between school IPV policies and IPV outcomes at the school-district level; 3) identify barriers and facilitators to implementing IPV policies in high schools; and 4) develop, refine, and test the feasibility and acceptability of a toolkit for implementation of IPV legislation in high schools. This study will provide the largest and most comprehensive evaluation of state IPV legislation to date. Findings will provide critical data on the effectiveness of school IPV policies in preventing adolescent IPV and actionable evidence for policy makers and agencies responsible for carrying out IPV policy implementation. To acquire the necessary skills to accomplish this project, I will receive training in three critical areas: 1) health policy and advanced econometrics; 2) implementation science; and 3) qualitative methods. I will also engage in professional development, extend my professional networks, and further develop my grant writing and oral presentation skills. I have assembled an interdisciplinary mentorship team with expertise in public health, medicine, public policy, law, and education to ensure completion of the proposed research and training plan and a successful transition to independence. This Pathway to Independence Award will enable me to develop into an interdisciplinary, independent investigator who examines the causes and consequences of IPV at the individual level and assesses how multilevel policies and interventions can prevent adolescent IPV.

项目摘要/摘要 青少年亲密伴侣暴力(IPV)是美国的一个主要公共卫生问题。超过60% 12-18岁的恋爱中的青少年报告经历了IPV(身体、性和/或心理 虐待)。鉴于广泛的流行率和相关的不利后果，各国正在积极参与 降低IPV的主要预防战略，包括制定和实施IPV法律。这些 在全国范围内迅速扩大的州法律，有可能改变 IPV通过鼓励或要求学区采用预防教育课程和政策来实现 解决IPV问题。这些政策包括定义、对教师和工作人员的培训要求以及报告。 程序。目前，已有19个州通过了鼓励或强制执行学校IPV政策的法律。尽管如此 在过去的十年里，法律的势头越来越大，但对国家有效性的研究却很少。 法律以及学校如何执行政策以满足各州的法律要求。建议的目标 这项独立之路奖的研究是为了确定州知识产权法律是否降低了 评估高中是否充分执行这些法律以及如何充分执行这些法律。这个 具体目标是：1)评估州IPV法律在降低青少年流行率方面的有效性 IPV；2)评估IPV法律的执行情况以及学校IPV政策与IPV之间的关系 在学区一级取得成果；3)确定在高级别执行知识产权政策的障碍和促进者 学校；以及4)开发、改进和测试实施森林行动计划的工具包的可行性和可接受性 高中的立法。这项研究将提供最大规模和最全面的国家IPV评估 到目前为止的立法。调查结果将为学校IPV政策在预防疾病方面的有效性提供关键数据 青少年IPV和负责执行IPV政策的政策制定者和机构的可操作证据 实施。为了获得完成这个项目所需的技能，我将接受三个关键方面的培训 领域：1)卫生政策和高级计量经济学；2)实施科学；3)定性方法。这就做 我还参与了专业发展，扩展了我的专业网络，并进一步发展了我的拨款写作 和口头陈述技巧。我已经组建了一个跨学科的指导团队，在公共场合拥有专业知识 卫生、医学、公共政策、法律和教育，以确保完成拟议的研究和培训 计划和向独立的成功过渡。这个独立之路奖将使我能够 发展成为一名跨学科的独立调查员，研究IPV的原因和后果 在个人层面，并评估多层次政策和干预措施如何能够预防青少年IPV。
