“…Despite this theoretical interest, there is not enough research on adolescents for this topic. Although a higher prevalence of aggression has been found within committed relationships (Machado et al, 2014), it also occurs within occasional sexual relationships/experiences, including passing encounters (Kaura & Lohman, 2009;Klipfel, Claxton, & van Dulmen, 2014). It has been described that TRV is associated with the number of relationships (Toscano, 2007) and that the extension of them increases the likelihood of TRV (Wiersma, Cleveland, Herrera, & Fischer, 2010).…”

This study compares attitudes toward teen relationship (or dating) violence (TRV) between early and late adolescents in the province of Concepción, Chile. The sample consisted of 770 adolescents, aged between 11 and 19 with an average age of 14.8 years old, of which 389 were female (50.5%) and 381 were male (49.5%). An adapted version of the Scale of Attitudes Towards Intimate Violence was used. Results found greater justifying attitudes toward violence in early adolescents than in late adolescents, in 6 of 12 items of the scale, with a statistical significance of p ≤ .001 in 4 items and in the overall score, and p ≤ .05 in 2 items. In the comparison according to sex, male adolescents tended to justify violence more than female adolescents did in one item ( p ≤ .001). In dating/no dating comparison, statistically significant differences were found in just 2 items, in favor of those who are not in a relationship ( p ≤ .05). These results are analyzed and discussed in relation to previous literature. Finally, orientations to future interventions are proposed, and it is suggested that aspects related to sampling and possible modulating variables such as cognitive development and moral development be considered for future investigations.

“…Based on the stress-buffering hypothesis, we expected that both forms of social support would moderate the association between physical and psychological victimization and relationship satisfaction and depression. We controlled for relationship length, as research has shown a positive association between relationship length and satisfaction (Kaura & Lohman, 2009) and dating violence (Marcus & Swett, 2002).…”

Dating violence victimization is associated with decreased relationship satisfaction and increased mental health symptomatology. Yet, violent dating relationships often remain intact across time, even when the aggression fails to cease. Thus, research is needed to determine the factors that reduce the negative impact of victimization. One factor may be that abusive dating partners are perceived as supportive by their partners, serving to reduce the negative impact of victimization. The current study sought to examine whether perceived support (i.e., perceptions of support) and capitalization support (i.e., perceptions of support for positive events) moderated and reduced the impact of dating violence victimization on decreased relationship satisfaction and increased depressive symptoms. Using a sample of females in dating relationships (N = 253), results provided partial support for our hypotheses. Implications of these findings and directions for future research are discussed.

“…One of Kaukinen’s key findings (e.g., Gover, Kaukinen, & Fox, 2008; Kaukinen, Gover, & Hartman, 2012), which has been replicated by other researchers (e.g., Kaura & Lohman, 2009; Miller, 2011; Milletich, Kelley, Doane, & Pearson, 2010; Shorey, Brasfield, Febres, & Stuart, 2011), is that dating violence among college students is not uncommon, and it is often mutual. That is, within these heterosexual dating relationships, both the man and the woman engage in physical aggression (e.g., shoving, threatening, throwing an object, slapping).…”

“…However, in some cases, there may be a pattern of more frequent, severe, or escalating aggressive behavior. For example, between 1% and 7% of college students report that more severe physical violence (e.g., being burned, shoved against a wall) ever occurred in their relationship (Kaukinen et al, 2012; Kaura & Lohman, 2009; Kendra, Bell, & Guimond, 2012). In addition, Milletich, Kelley, Doane, and Pearson (2010) found that 4% of women who engaged in physical aggression in their relationship reported that they frequently did so, as did 11% of men who engaged in physical aggression.…”

This commentary discusses the contributions of Drs. Antonia Abbey and Catherine Kaukinen to our understanding of risk factors for sexual and physical aggression among college students. Major contributions of their work are outlined. These include Abbey's contributions to our understanding of trajectories of sexually aggressive behavior among college men, risk factors for engaging in sexual aggression among men, and the role of alcohol in sexual aggression. In addition, Kaukinen's work has increased our understanding of the frequency of violence in college dating relationships as well as the association of violent relationships with health risk behaviors. Directions for future research are also outlined including a need to identify trajectories of violence risk as well as a need to understand the complex interrelationships among health risk behaviors and interpersonal violence. Finally, implications for practice and university policy are discussed, including a focus on the development of effective preventive strategies and proactive responses to violence.
