The normalization of aggressive behavior in teenage couples when they are dating is a phenomenon that is currently reaching very worrying proportions. The consequences are creating a serious public health problem and have hence aroused the interest of many researchers as to its causes. Most have centered on the role of the aggressor. However, the processes of aggression and victimization are inseparable, and relegating the victims to the background only contributes to increasing the prevalence, severity, and perdurability of the problem. The objectives of this study were to: (i) identify the types and frequency of abuse that adolescents suffer in their relationships; (ii) analyze the relationship between sexist attitudes, acceptance of violence, and victimization; and (iii) determine predictors of the violence suffered in adolescent dating relationships. The sample comprised 2577 adolescents (55.2% girls) of 14 to 18 years in age (M = 15.9, SD = 1.2). The instruments used were the dating violence questionnaire (Cuestionario de Violencia de Novios, CUVINO) and the Scale of detection of sexism in adolescents (Escala de Detección de Sexismo en Adolescentes, DSA). The results indicate that victims showed high tolerance towards gender violence. Acceptance was greater the more frequent the abuse or aggressions suffered. Regarding sexist attitudes, only those belonging to the benevolent dimension had predictive value. The results also show that the interaction between acceptance of the abuse suffered and the manifestation of benevolent sexist attitudes predicted victimization involving specific forms of aggression.
青少年情侣在约会时将攻击行为正常化，这一现象目前正达到非常令人担忧的程度。其后果正在造成严重的公共卫生问题，因此引起了许多研究人员对其原因的兴趣。大多数研究集中在攻击者的角色上。然而，攻击和受害的过程是不可分割的，将受害者置于次要地位只会助长问题的普遍性、严重性和持久性。本研究的目的是：（i）确定青少年在恋爱关系中遭受的虐待的类型和频率；（ii）分析性别歧视态度、对暴力的接受程度和受害之间的关系；（iii）确定青少年恋爱关系中暴力的预测因素。样本由 2577 名年龄在 14 至 18 岁（M = 15.9，SD = 1.2）的青少年（55.2%为女孩）组成。使用的工具是恋爱暴力问卷（Cuestionario de Violencia de Novios，CUVINO）和青少年性别歧视检测量表（Escala de Detección de Sexismo en Adolescentes，DSA）。结果表明，受害者对性别暴力表现出很高的容忍度。遭受的虐待或攻击越频繁，接受程度就越高。关于性别歧视态度，只有属于仁慈维度的态度才有预测价值。结果还表明，对所遭受的虐待的接受程度与仁慈性别歧视态度的表现之间的相互作用，预测了涉及特定形式攻击的受害。
