While teen dating violence (TDV) prevention programs generally report changes in participants' attitudes and mixed findings about changes in behavior, little is known about the impact of TDV programs on ethnic minority youth. This study examined the effectiveness of Safe Dates, an evidence-based TDV prevention program, in educating 21 resettled Karen refugee youth from Burma. Findings indicated changes in attitudes toward violence occurred from pretest to follow-up. Years living in the United States was significantly related to pretest and posttest attitudes. More research about TDV is needed among Karen youth with attention given to the role of acculturation on TDV attitudes.
虽然青少年约会暴力(TDV)预防项目通常报告参与者态度的变化以及行为变化的混合结果,但对于TDV项目对少数民族青年的影响知之甚少。本研究检验了“安全约会”(Safe Dates)这一循证TDV预防项目对21名来自缅甸的克伦族重新安置难民青年进行教育的效果。研究结果表明,从测试前到随访期间,对暴力的态度发生了变化。在美国生活的年数与测试前和测试后的态度显著相关。需要对克伦族青年进行更多关于TDV的研究,并关注文化适应对TDV态度的作用。
