To present the first national prevalence estimates of psychological and physical intimate partner violence between adolescents in same-sex relationships.
Analyses focus on 117 adolescents aged 12-21 years (50% female) from Wave II of the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health who reported exclusively same-sex romantic or sexual relationships in the 18 months before interview. Items from the Conflict Tactics Scale were used to measure partner violence victimization. Data analysis included computation of prevalence estimates and a logistic regression analysis to assess associations between sociodemographic characteristics and violence victimization.
Almost one-quarter of adolescents with same-sex romantic or sexual partners reported some type of partner violence victimization; about 1 in 10 reported physical victimization. Significant sex differences were found (OR = .29, CI = 0.08, 1.00), with males being less likely than females to report "any violence." Of six other sociodemographic characteristics examined, importance of religion (OR = .27, CI = 0.07-1.07) and school size (OR = .32, CI = 0.09-1.11) were associated with victimization at the p < .10 level. Adolescents who reported that religion was important to them and adolescents who attended larger schools were at lower risk of "any violence."
As with opposite-sex relationships, psychological and minor physical violence victimization is common among adolescents involved in same-sex intimate relationships. Males reporting exclusively same-sex relationships were less likely than females to report experiencing the violence behaviors examined.
呈现关于同性恋爱关系中青少年心理和身体亲密伴侣暴力的全国首次患病率估计。
分析聚焦于来自青少年健康全国纵向研究第二轮的117名12 - 21岁青少年(50%为女性),他们在访谈前18个月报告仅有同性恋爱或性关系。使用冲突策略量表中的项目来测量伴侣暴力受害情况。数据分析包括患病率估计的计算以及逻辑回归分析,以评估社会人口学特征与暴力受害之间的关联。
近四分之一有同性恋爱或性伴侣的青少年报告遭受了某种形式的伴侣暴力受害;约十分之一报告遭受身体暴力。发现了显著的性别差异(比值比 = 0.29,置信区间 = 0.08,1.00),男性比女性报告“任何暴力”的可能性更低。在检查的其他六个社会人口学特征中,宗教重要性(比值比 = 0.27,置信区间 = 0.07 - 1.07)和学校规模(比值比 = 0.32,置信区间 = 0.09 - 1.11)在p < 0.10水平与受害情况相关。报告宗教对其重要的青少年以及就读于较大学校的青少年遭受“任何暴力”的风险较低。
与异性关系一样,心理和轻微身体暴力受害在涉及同性亲密关系的青少年中很常见。报告仅有同性关系的男性比女性报告经历所检查的暴力行为的可能性更低。
