In the United States, teen dating violence (TDV) is a concern across ethnic groups. Attitudes and correlates of violence differ by gender, culture, and acculturation. This study used a qualitative interpretive approach. Data were obtained in focus groups with 23 Latino male adolescents. Themes reflected contexts of participants' lives, and definitions and nature of dating relationships and TDV. Participants described the importance of respecting dating partners, the destructive effects of TDV, and the pressure to display masculinity that can lead some young men to perpetrate TDV. These results may advance culturally relevant interventions to promote healthy relationships and prevent dating violence.
在美国，青少年约会暴力（TDV）是所有族裔群体都关心的问题。暴力的态度及相关因素因性别、文化和文化适应程度而异。本研究采用定性解释方法。数据来自对23名拉丁裔青少年男性进行的焦点小组访谈。主题反映了参与者的生活背景、约会关系和青少年约会暴力的定义及本质。参与者描述了尊重约会伴侣的重要性、青少年约会暴力的破坏性影响，以及展示男子气概的压力，这种压力可能导致一些年轻男性实施青少年约会暴力。这些结果可能推动开展与文化相关的干预措施，以促进健康关系并预防约会暴力。
