This multi-method, longitudinal study examines the negotiation of autonomy and relatedness between teens and their mothers as etiologic predictors of perpetration and victimization of dating aggression two years later.
Observations of 88 mid-adolescents and their mothers discussing a topic of disagreement were coded for each individual's demonstrations of autonomy and relatedness using a validated coding system. Adolescents self-reported on perpetration and victimization of physical and psychological dating aggression two years later. We hypothesized that mother's and adolescents' behaviors supporting autonomy and relatedness would longitudinally predict lower reporting of dating aggression, and that their behaviors inhibiting autonomy and relatedness would predict higher reporting of dating aggression.
Hypotheses were not supported; main findings were characterized by interactions of sex and risk status with autonomy. Maternal behaviors supporting autonomy predicted higher reports of perpetration and victimization of physical dating aggression for girls, but not for boys. Adolescent behaviors supporting autonomy predicted higher reports of perpetration of physical dating aggression for high-risk adolescents, but not for low-risk adolescents.
Results indicate that autonomy is a dynamic developmental process, operating differently as a function of social contexts in predicting dating aggression. Examination of these and other developmental processes within parent-child relationships is important in predicting dating aggression, but may depend on social context.
这项多方法纵向研究考察青少年与其母亲之间自主性和亲密感的协商，将其作为两年后约会暴力行为实施和受害情况的病因预测因素。
使用经过验证的编码系统，对88名青少年中期个体及其母亲讨论分歧话题的情况进行观察，对每个个体的自主性和亲密感表现进行编码。两年后，青少年自我报告身体和心理约会暴力行为的实施和受害情况。我们假设，母亲和青少年支持自主性和亲密感的行为将纵向预测较低的约会暴力报告率，而他们抑制自主性和亲密感的行为将预测较高的约会暴力报告率。
假设未得到支持；主要发现的特征是性别和风险状况与自主性之间的相互作用。母亲支持自主性的行为预测女孩身体约会暴力行为的实施和受害报告率较高，但对男孩则不然。青少年支持自主性的行为预测高风险青少年身体约会暴力行为的实施报告率较高，但对低风险青少年则不然。
结果表明，自主性是一个动态的发展过程，在预测约会暴力时，其作用因社会背景而异。在预测约会暴力时，考察亲子关系中的这些及其他发展过程很重要，但可能取决于社会背景。
