Despite efforts to prevent physical teen dating violence, it remains a major public health issue with multiple negative consequences. This study aims to investigate gender differences in the relationships between exposure to interparental violence (mother-to-father violence, father-to-mother violence), acceptance of dating violence (perpetrated by boys, perpetrated by girls), and self-efficacy to disclose teen dating violence. Data were drawn from Waves 1 and 2 of the Quebec Youth Romantic Relationships Project, conducted with a representative sample of Quebec high school students. Analyses were conducted on a subsample of 2,564 teenagers who had been in a dating relationship in the past 6 months (63.8% girls, mean age of 15.3 years). Path analyses were conducted to investigate the links among exposure to interparental violence, acceptance of violence, self-efficacy to disclose teen dating violence (measured at Wave 1), and physical teen dating violence (measured at Wave 2). General exposure to interparental violence was linked, through acceptance of girl-perpetrated violence, to victimization among both genders and to girls' perpetration of physical teen dating violence. No significant difference was identified in the impact of the gender of the perpetrating parent when considering exposure to interparental violence. Self-efficacy to disclose personal experiences of violence was not linked to exposure to interparental violence or to experiences of physical teen dating violence. The findings support the intergenerational transmission of violence. Moreover, the findings underline the importance of targeting acceptance of violence, especially girl-perpetrated violence, in prevention programs and of intervening with children and adolescents who have witnessed interparental violence.
尽管已经努力预防青少年身体间的恋爱暴力，但它仍然是一个严重的公共卫生问题，会带来多种负面影响。本研究旨在调查青少年在暴露于父母间暴力（母亲对父亲暴力、父亲对母亲暴力）、接受恋爱暴力（男孩施暴、女孩施暴）和揭露青少年恋爱暴力的自我效能方面的性别差异。数据来自魁北克青少年浪漫关系项目的第 1 波和第 2 波，采用了具有代表性的魁北克高中生样本。分析对象是过去 6 个月内处于恋爱关系中的 2564 名青少年（63.8%是女孩，平均年龄为 15.3 岁）。路径分析用于研究父母间暴力的暴露、暴力的接受、揭露青少年恋爱暴力的自我效能（在第 1 波测量）与青少年身体间的恋爱暴力（在第 2 波测量）之间的联系。总的父母间暴力暴露通过对女孩施暴的接受，与两性的受害和女孩的青少年身体间的恋爱暴力施暴有关。在考虑父母间暴力的暴露时，没有发现施暴父母的性别对影响有显著差异。揭露个人暴力经历的自我效能与父母间暴力的暴露或青少年身体间的恋爱暴力经历无关。研究结果支持暴力的代际传递。此外，研究结果强调了在预防计划中针对暴力的接受，特别是女孩施暴的重要性，并且要对目睹父母间暴力的儿童和青少年进行干预。
