“…These results confirm the findings of other re-search works, where girls exercise more control violence [ 8 , 19 , 22 , 27 , 43 , 53 ]. The results differ with those obtained by other authors, who found that these types of behaviors were more unequally used, finding greater victimization in girls [ 36 , 51 , 54 , 55 ] and with other studies that concluded that such violence was used by both boys and girls in a similar way [ 9 , 24 , 56 , 57 , 58 ].…”

The purpose of this study was to analyze the prevalence of controlling violence experienced by adolescents in the Region of Murcia, as well as to analyze the patterns and sociodemographic variables involved such as sex, age, religious beliefs, sexual orientation, and country of origin of the families with the consequent cultural background provided. Using a sample of 454 secondary and high school students who completed a survey, the results revealed that 29.96% of the respondents were perpetrators (exerted violence) and 35.68% were victims of at least one dating abuse behavior. Significant differences were found in the occurrence of abuse based on family background, age, and religion. Finally, the results revealed that there were no significant differences in the victimization or perpetration of violence in relation to sex, but the older the victim, the less control exercised in cybernetic media, and the greater the control of the other in relation to family origin, where those from Latin American and African countries showed a greater propensity to control their partners than those of Spanish origin.

The aim of the present study was to determine the prevalence and severity of teen dating violence victimization in Spanish adolescents from both community and at‐risk samples. The sample comprised 1,105 community adolescents from secondary schools, 149 adolescents from child, and adolescent mental health centers, 129 from residential care centers associated with the child welfare system, and 101 from centers in the juvenile justice system. The participants, aged between 14 and 17 years, were interviewed using the Juvenile Victimization Questionnaire. The lifetime prevalence of victimization in dating relationships ranged from 2.5% to 33.7%. The prevalence of physical victimization was slightly higher in boys, while sexual and electronic victimization and injuries were more prevalent in girls. In conclusion, teen dating violence is a prevalent problem in Spain that needs to be addressed to prevent adolescents from developing risk behaviors and to avoid adverse consequences on mental health, especially in at‐risk adolescents.

“…Considering these results, one question worth asking is whether stability in involvement as a victim may influence adolescents' behavioral and emotional adjustment. Ortega-Barón et al (2020), in a longitudinal study across three time points, recently explored the effect of cyber dating victimization on adolescent quality of life (understood as physical and psychological well-being, social support and family relationships), considering the stability of victimization. The authors identified five groups of victims: new, ceased, intermittent, stable (those who reported being victimized in the three time points), and non-victims, with this last group containing a high proportion of boys.…”

“…In relation to the first aim, we expected to find that cyber dating victimization would be associated with poorer psychological adjustment six months later (Cava et al, 2020;Ortega-Barón et al, 2020;Zweig et al, 2014). In relation to the second aim, we expected adolescents suffering stable or recent cyber dating victimization would report poorer levels of psychological adjustment across the six-month period (Ortega-Barón et al, 2020;Temple et al, 2016). As for the third aim, a recent meta-analysis focused on the effect of gender on cyber dating violence in adult relationships concluded that gender was not associated with cyber victimization (Gilbar et al, 2022).…”

The effect of cyber dating victimization on adolescents’ adjustment is understudied. The present study aimed to analyze the impact of cyber dating victimization on antisocial behavior, anxious depressive symptoms, and stress management according to their frequency and stability over time. In the study, 453 Spanish students aged between 12 and 19 years (52.5% girls) with sentimental experience completed surveys in a two-time longitudinal study six-month apart. Cyber dating victimization predicted a worse stress management. Regarding stability, four cyber dating victimization groups were found: non-cyber victims, past cyber victims, recent cyber victims, and stable cyber victims. The results indicated that recent cyber victims worsen their levels of antisocial behavior and anxious depressive symptoms coinciding with the moment of cyber dating victimization. Stable cyber victims showed worse scores in all the study variables over time. This study highlights the impact that cyber dating victimization has on adolescents’ psychological adjustment. These results address the need to develop psychoeducational interventions aimed to prevent cyber dating victimization, favoring adolescents’ healthy development and the improvement of the school life.
