Dating violence (DV) is now recognized as an important public health issue. Prevention and intervention programs are being implemented in school contexts. Such initiatives aim to raise awareness among potential victims and offenders as well as among peer bystanders and offer adequate interventions following disclosure. Yet, a major challenge remains as teenagers may not disclose their victimization or may not feel self-efficient to deal with DV if they witness such violence. As such, teen DV remains largely hidden. A representative sample of 8 194 students (age 14-18) in the province of Quebec, Canada was used to explore teenagers' self-efficacy to reach out for help or to help others in a situation of DV victimization and perpetration. Analyses are conducted to identify possible correlates of self-efficacy in terms of socio-demographic variable (sex, age) and a history of child sexual abuse and dating victimization. Implications for prevention and support strategies are discussed.
约会暴力（DV）如今被视为一个重要的公共卫生问题。预防和干预项目正在学校环境中实施。此类举措旨在提高潜在受害者、施暴者以及同伴旁观者的意识，并在事件披露后提供适当的干预措施。然而，一个主要挑战仍然存在，因为青少年可能不会透露自己遭受的侵害，或者如果目睹此类暴力行为，可能觉得自己没有能力应对约会暴力。因此，青少年约会暴力在很大程度上仍然不为人知。加拿大魁北克省8194名14至18岁的学生组成的代表性样本被用于探究青少年在约会暴力受害和施暴情况下寻求帮助或帮助他人的自我效能感。进行分析以确定社会人口统计学变量（性别、年龄）以及儿童性虐待和约会受害史方面自我效能感的可能相关因素。讨论了对预防和支持策略的启示。
