In order to prevent youth and young adult partner abuse, it is necessary to have a better understanding of dating relationship dynamics as the context for potential abusive interactions.
Youth and young adults (ages 10-18 at baseline) were surveyed along with a matched parent/caregiver. Data, including parent and youth responses (n = 437 youth/parent dyads), are drawn from the nationally representative Survey on Teen Relationships and Intimate Violence (STRiV).
Applying latent class analytic techniques with seven different positive and problematic descriptors of dating relationships, this study found four classes of relationship dynamics representing healthy, unhealthy, intense, and disengaged relationships. The intense relationship dynamic class exhibits the strongest associations with reports of any youth and young adult partner abuse, as well as distinctly with the subtypes of psychological, physical, and sexual victimization and perpetration.
Results demonstrate the importance of clinicians, parents and other responsible adults attending to an array of youth and young adult dating relationship dynamics rather than single indicators, to assess youth and young adult risk for involvement in abusive relationships.
为了预防青少年和年轻成年人之间的伴侣虐待,有必要更好地了解约会关系的动态,因为这是潜在的虐待互动的背景。
青少年和年轻成年人(基线时年龄为 10-18 岁)与匹配的父母/照顾者一起接受调查。数据包括父母和青少年的回应(n=437 对青少年/父母对子),来自全国代表性的青少年关系和亲密暴力调查(STRiV)。
本研究应用具有七种不同的积极和有问题的约会关系描述符的潜在类别分析技术,发现了四种关系动态类别,代表健康、不健康、强烈和不投入的关系。强烈的关系动态类别与任何青少年和年轻成年人伴侣虐待的报告以及心理、身体和性受害和施害的亚型都有最强的关联。
结果表明,临床医生、父母和其他负责任的成年人关注一系列青少年和年轻成年人的约会关系动态,而不是单一指标,以评估青少年和年轻成年人参与虐待关系的风险非常重要。
