Few longitudinal studies have examined the pathways through which family violence leads to dating aggression. In the current study the authors used 3 waves of data obtained from 8th- and 9th-grade adolescents ( = 1,965) to examine the hypotheses that the prospective relationship between witnessing family violence and directly experiencing violence and physical dating aggression perpetration is mediated by 3 constructs: (a) normative beliefs about dating aggression (norms), (b) anger dysregulation, and (c) depression. Results from cross-lagged regression models suggest that the relationship between having been hit by an adult and dating aggression is mediated by changes in norms and anger dysregulation, but not depression. No evidence of indirect effects from witnessing family violence to dating aggression was found through any of the proposed mediators. Taken together, the findings suggest that anger dysregulation and normative beliefs are potential targets for dating abuse prevention efforts aimed at youth who have directly experienced violence.
很少有纵向研究探讨家庭暴力导致约会攻击行为的途径。在本研究中,作者使用了从八年级和九年级青少年(n = 1,965)那里获得的三轮数据,以检验以下假设:目睹家庭暴力与直接经历暴力以及实施身体约会攻击行为之间的前瞻性关系是由三种结构介导的:(a)关于约会攻击行为的规范性信念(规范),(b)愤怒调节障碍,以及(c)抑郁。交叉滞后回归模型的结果表明,被成年人殴打与约会攻击行为之间的关系是由规范和愤怒调节障碍的变化介导的,而不是由抑郁介导的。通过任何一种提出的中介变量,均未发现目睹家庭暴力对约会攻击行为有间接影响的证据。综上所述,研究结果表明,愤怒调节障碍和规范性信念是针对直接经历过暴力的青少年开展约会虐待预防工作的潜在目标。
