To examine the association of dating violence with personal and social contextual factors among a sample of 12- to 17-year-olds enrolled in managed care health plans.
A sample of 444 youth (45% male; 80% African-American; 38% aged 12-13 years) agreed to participate in an alcohol risk-prevention randomized controlled trial, and completed a survey. Cross-tabulations and calculation of odds ratios were performed to assess associations between dating violence and sociodemographics, religious service attendance, personal alcohol use, peer-drinking exposures and parental monitoring. Logistic regression modeling was used to identify the significant predictors of dating violence.
Seven percent of youth reported recent dating violence. In a logistic regression model, peer-drinking exposures was associated with dating victimization (OR = 3.24; CI = 1.04-10.15). Religious service attendance (OR =0.40; CI = 0.17-0.91) and parental monitoring (OR = 0.41; CI = 0.17-0.99) were protective against dating violence.
Religious service attendance and frequent parental monitoring were associated with a lower prevalence of recent dating violence. Conversely, being in places where one's friends are drinking alcohol was associated with an increased risk of victimization. It may be that dating violence is, in part, mediated by adolescents' important social contacts.
在参加管理式医疗健康计划的12至17岁青少年样本中，研究约会暴力与个人及社会背景因素之间的关联。
444名青少年（45%为男性；80%为非裔美国人；38%年龄在12至13岁）的样本同意参与一项酒精风险预防随机对照试验，并完成了一项调查。进行交叉表分析和比值比计算，以评估约会暴力与社会人口统计学、宗教活动参与情况、个人饮酒情况、同伴饮酒暴露及父母监督之间的关联。使用逻辑回归模型来确定约会暴力的显著预测因素。
7%的青少年报告近期遭受过约会暴力。在逻辑回归模型中，同伴饮酒暴露与约会受害相关（比值比=3.24；可信区间=1.04 - 10.15）。参加宗教活动（比值比=0.40；可信区间=0.17 - 0.91）和父母监督（比值比=0.41；可信区间=0.17 - 0.99）对约会暴力有保护作用。
参加宗教活动和父母频繁监督与近期约会暴力的较低发生率相关。相反，处于朋友饮酒的场所与受害风险增加相关。约会暴力可能部分是由青少年重要的社会交往所介导的。
