We examined associations between parental IPV exposure, perceived social support, and adolescent relationship abuse (ARA) victimization, specifically in a group of marginalized youth.
Data were drawn from surveys administered to marginalized youth as part of the Healthy Allegheny Teen Survey. Logistic regression examined (1) the association between IPV exposure and social support and (2) how social support influences the association between IPV exposure and ARA victimization.
IPV-exposed youth reported lower perceived social support (adjusted odds ratio: .54, confidence interval [CI]: .31-.96). There was a significant association between IPV exposure and ARA victimization (odds ratio: 3.5, CI: 1.5-8.1). However, among youth with higher social support, the association between IPV exposure and ARA victimization attenuated and lost significance (odds ratio: 1.9, CI: .57-6.5).
IPV-exposed youth reported less social support; however, social support may buffer the association between IPV exposure and ARA. Interventions may consider bolstering social support for IPV-exposed youth.
我们研究了父母间的暴力（IPV）暴露、感知到的社会支持与青少年关系虐待（ARA）受害之间的关联，特别是在一群处于社会边缘的青年群体中。
数据来自作为“健康阿勒格尼青少年调查”一部分而对边缘化青少年进行的调查。逻辑回归检验了（1）IPV 暴露与社会支持之间的关联，以及（2）社会支持如何影响 IPV 暴露与 ARA 受害之间的关联。
经历过 IPV 的青少年报告的感知社会支持较低（调整后的优势比：.54，置信区间 [CI]：.31-.96）。IPV 暴露与 ARA 受害之间存在显著关联（比值比：3.5，CI：1.5-8.1）。然而，在社会支持较高的青少年中，IPV 暴露与 ARA 受害之间的关联减弱并失去显著性（比值比：1.9，CI：.57-6.5）。
经历过 IPV 的青少年报告的社会支持较少；然而，社会支持可能缓冲了 IPV 暴露与 ARA 之间的关联。干预措施可能需要为经历过 IPV 的青少年增强社会支持。
