“…Notably, each of the family and individual variables examined in the current study has been associated with dating violence victimization and/or perpetration in empirical research (Chen et al 2016; Reyes, Foshee, Klevens et al 2016; Vagi et al 2014) and thus are common targets for prevention programs (Reyes, Foshee, and Chen 2016). We expect that higher levels of each risk factor and lower levels of each protective factor will distinguish the expected multiform aggressive victims from the expected psychologically aggressive victim and uninvolved classes and distinguish the expected psychologically aggressive victim class from the uninvolved class.…”

“…Estimates from nationally representative surveys in the U.S. suggest that 10% of high school attending youth have experienced physical and/or sexual dating violence (Kann et al 2014; Haynie et al 2013) and 25% have experienced psychological dating violence in the past 12 months (Haynie et al 2013) with potentially severe negative sequelae including depression, substance use, injury, and, in the most severe cases, death (Chen et al 2016). Although dating violence affects youth in all ethnic and racial groups, research suggests that Latino youth represent a growing population who may be particularly at risk.…”

“…This is an important limitation given that sexual dating violence is correlated with other forms of dating violence and more consistently has been found to differ for boys and girls; specifically, numerous studies have found that, compared to girls, boys are more likely to perpetrate and less likely to experience sexual violence (for a review, see Chen et al 2016). Thus, sexual dating violence may be a key indicator differentiating distinct dating violence patterns among boys and girls.…”

Theory and research suggest that there may be significant heterogeneity in the development, manifestation, and consequences of adolescent dating violence that is not yet well understood. The current study contributed to our understanding of this heterogeneity by identifying distinct patterns of involvement in psychological, physical, and sexual dating violence victimization and perpetration in a sample of Latino youth (n=201; M=13.87 years; 42% male), a group that is understudied, growing, and at high risk for involvement in dating violence. Among both boys and girls, latent class analyses identified a three-class solution wherein the largest class demonstrated a low probability of involvement in dating violence across all indices (“uninvolved”; 56% of boys, 64% of girls) and the smallest class demonstrated high probability of involvement in all forms of dating violence except for sexual perpetration among girls and physical perpetration among boys (“multiform aggressive victims”; 10% of boys, 11% of girls). A third class of “psychologically aggressive victims” was identified for which there was a high probability of engaging and experiencing psychological dating violence, but low likelihood of involvement in physical or sexual dating violence (34% of boys, 24% of girls). Cultural (parent acculturation, acculturation conflict), family (conflict and cohesion) and individual (normative beliefs, conflict resolution skills, self-control) risk and protective factors were associated with class membership. Membership in the multiform versus the uninvolved class was concurrently associated with emotional distress among girls and predicted emotional distress longitudinally among boys. The results contribute to understanding heterogeneity in patterns of involvement in dating violence among Latino youth that may reflect distinct etiological processes.

“…Numerous studies suggest that involvement in peer and/or dating violence leads to negative outcomes for youth (Arseneault et al 2010; Chen et al 2016; Connolly 2017; Copeland et al 2013; Foshee et al 2016; Nahapetyan et al 2014). However, most extant research on violence outcomes has focused on identifying the unique effects of experiencing a particular type and form of violence (e.g., physical dating violence) victimization or perpetration, thus failing to account for overlap and heterogeneity in the types and forms of violence that youth experience and engage in that may be key to understanding differential risk for negative consequences.…”

“…Youth who are involved in interpersonal violence are at risk for a range of negative developmental outcomes (Arseneault et al 2010; Chen et al 2016; Connolly 2017; Copeland et al 2013; Foshee et al 2016; Nahapetyan et al 2014). For example, longitudinal studies of dating violence have found that victims, compared to non-victims, are at increased risk of substance use, psychological distress, academic decline, physical injuries, and increased suicide attempts (Chen et al 2016). Similar negative outcomes have been found in studies assessing the effects of peer violence victimization (Arseneault et al 2010; Connolly 2017; Copeland et al 2013).…”

Typological theoretical perspectives suggest that the consequences of involvement in peer and dating violence may depend on the particular pattern of violent behaviors that youth experience and/or engage in. Yet few studies have examined whether distinct patterns of dating and peer violence involvement differentially predict developmental outcomes. Using two waves of data, the current study examined the prospective associations between distinct patterns of peer and dating aggression and victimization, identified using latent class analysis, and a range of potential developmental outcomes in a general population sample of adolescents in the 8th to 10th grades (n = 3068; 46% female, 58% White, 31% Black, 11% other race/ethnicity). The findings suggest that, compared to youth involved in other patterns of violence, youth involved in peer and dating violence as aggressors and victims are at greatest risk for negative sequelae, although results differed considerably for girls and boys and on the outcome variable and comparison groups being examined.

Research has shown that neighborhoods play a role in the etiology of violence. However, few adolescent relationship aggression (ARA) studies have objective measures of violent neighborhoods. Drawing on a nationally representative sample of youth, this study examines the association between ARA and local levels of violent crime (measured using geocoded Uniform Crime Report data from each of the youths' residential neighborhoods). Study analyses are based on survey data from 723 youth (ages 10-18) in current or recent dating relationships (351 males and 372 females) in the Survey on Teen Relationships and Intimate Violence (STRiV), a national representative household panel survey exploring interpersonal violence and related aggression among adolescents. About 19% of the sample reported ARA victimization in their most recent dating relationship (ARA perpetration was 17%). Neighborhood violent crime in the study (males living in 86.9 and females 99.8) was slightly lower than the national average of 100. With a broad national sample, 40% non-Whites,hypotheses guided by theories of neighborhood influence were tested. The study did not find an association between neighborhood violent crime and ARA victimization and perpetration, controlling for key demographic factors. The results, for a broad range of high-and low-crime neighborhoods, suggest that neighborhood violence does not seem to affect individual rates of ARA. The results suggest the ARA victimization and perpetration are perhaps ubiquitous and found both in low and high violent crime neighborhoods, suggesting that addressing local violent crime rates alone does not seem to be a path to also reducing ARA.
