OBJECTIVES
This study assessed the effects of the Safe Dates program on the primary and secondary prevention of adolescent dating violence.
METHODS
Fourteen schools were randomly allocated to treatment conditions. Eighty percent (n=1886) of the eighth and ninth graders in a rural county completed baseline questionnaires, and 1700 (90%) completed follow-up questionnaires.
RESULTS
Treatment and control groups were comparable at baseline. In the full sample at follow-up, less psychological abuse, sexual violence, and violence perpetrated against the current dating partner were reported in treatment than in control schools. In a subsample of adolescents reporting no dating violence at baseline (a primary prevention subsample), there was less initiation of psychological abuse in treatment than in control schools. In a subsample of adolescents reporting dating violence at baseline (a secondary prevention subsample), there was less psychological abuse and sexual violence perpetration reported at follow-up in treatment than in control schools. Most program effects were explained by changes in dating violence norms, gender stereotyping, and awareness of services.
CONCLUSIONS
The Safe Dates program shows promise for preventing dating violence among adolescents.
目的
本研究评估了“安全约会”项目对青少年约会暴力的一级和二级预防效果。
方法
14所学校被随机分配到不同的处理条件组。一个乡村县80%（n = 1886）的八年级和九年级学生完成了基线调查问卷，1700名（90%）学生完成了随访调查问卷。
结果
处理组和对照组在基线时具有可比性。在随访的全样本中，与对照组学校相比，处理组学校报告的心理虐待、性暴力以及针对当前约会伴侣的暴力行为较少。在基线时报告无约会暴力的青少年子样本（一级预防子样本）中，与对照组学校相比，处理组学校心理虐待的发生率较低。在基线时报告有约会暴力的青少年子样本（二级预防子样本）中，与对照组学校相比，处理组学校在随访时报告的心理虐待和性暴力发生率较低。大多数项目效果可通过约会暴力规范、性别刻板印象以及服务意识的变化来解释。
结论
“安全约会”项目在预防青少年约会暴力方面显示出前景。
