The purpose of the study was to examine three aspects of romantic relationships of Spanish adolescents: the prevalence of verbal-emotional and physical aggressive behaviors, correlates of dating violence perpetration (both verbal-emotional and physical aggression), and consequences of violence for victims' well-being.
A convenience sample of 567 participants (15-19 years old) who voluntarily completed anonymous, self-report questionnaires was used. All were students from 5 public high schools in Salamanca, Spain.
Females reported having perpetrated significantly more aggressive acts in their intimate relationships than males did, although the magnitude of differences between both groups was small; in contrast, no sex differences were noted in the frequency of aggressions suffered by adolescents. A strong relationship was observed between the perpetration and victimization of both verbal-emotional and physical aggression across genders. A strong link was observed between jealousy and aggression perpetration (both verbal-emotional and physical). Finally, verbal-emotional aggression represented the most common form of aggressive behavior used at these ages, and relationship deterioration was the most frequent consequence of arguments.
These results demonstrate that the use of abusive behaviors in adolescent dating relationships is prevalent in Spain. Sex differences were evident in the perpetration of aggression, as well as some of the motivations for, and the effects of, dating violence.
The present study underlines the need for early intervention programs aimed at decreasing any tolerance for the use of violence in dating relationships of Spanish adolescents. Such programs should include both victimization-based and perpetration-based activities, since the evidence on the relatively mutual nature of dating violence in adolescence points in this direction.
本研究旨在考察西班牙青少年浪漫关系的三个方面：言语-情感和身体攻击行为的流行程度、约会暴力行为（言语-情感和身体攻击）的相关因素，以及暴力对受害者福祉的影响。
使用了便利样本的 567 名参与者（15-19 岁），他们自愿完成匿名的自我报告问卷。他们都是西班牙萨拉曼卡 5 所公立高中的学生。
女性报告在亲密关系中实施的攻击行为明显多于男性，尽管两组之间的差异幅度很小；相比之下，青少年遭受的攻击频率没有性别差异。在性别之间，言语-情感和身体攻击的实施和受害都存在强烈的关系。嫉妒与攻击行为（言语-情感和身体）的实施之间存在强烈的联系。最后，言语-情感攻击是这些年龄段最常见的攻击行为形式，而关系恶化是争吵的最常见后果。
这些结果表明，在西班牙青少年约会关系中使用虐待行为很普遍。在攻击行为的实施以及约会暴力的一些动机和影响方面存在性别差异。
本研究强调需要针对西班牙青少年约会关系中的暴力行为实施早期干预计划。这些计划应包括基于受害和基于实施的活动，因为有关青春期约会暴力相对相互性质的证据指向这一方向。
