“…There is evidence that PsyInflex is a transdiagnostic process present in a myriad of externalizing and internalizing problems (Monestès et al, 2018), and relates with physical aggression and dating violence among college students (Shorey et al, 2014), but research with adolescent samples is very limited. With Spanish adolescents, preliminary data confirmed the relation of PsyInflex with overt and relational TDV (Villanueva et al, 2018), and recent studies showed that PsyInflex with prejudice thoughts predicts personal distress (Valdivia-Salas, Martin-Albo, et al, 2021), which, in turn, relates to both physical and relational TDV (Valdivia-Salas, Jiménez, et al, 2021).…”

Teen dating violence (TDV) refers to a wide range of partner-directed harmful behaviors among adolescents. Since it was first documented in the 1980s, there is a growing interest in TDV due to its potentially devastating mid- and long-term consequences. Aiming at the early detection of TDV onset with prevention purposes, research has focused on the detection of typologies of perpetrators and/or victims as well as on identifying risk and protective factors for its occurrence. Research with Spanish adolescents, however, is very limited. To fill this gap, we recruited a total of 2,319 adolescents from different regions in Spain, out of which, 1,079 reported having had a romantic partner during the last year. These filled out measures of TDV (perpetration and victimization), school aggression, hostile and benevolent sexism, empathy, assertiveness, psychological inflexibility (general measures), and psychological inflexibility with prejudice thoughts. A cluster analysis revealed that adolescents could be divided into two clusters as a function of their TDV profile: Cluster 1, including close to 76% of the sample (boys and girls), presented low TDV perpetration and victimization; Cluster 2, including 24% of the sample (boys and girls), presented higher TDV perpetration and victimization. Regression analyses revealed that, as compared to those in Cluster 1, adolescents in Cluster 2 were more likely to be older boys who scored high in benevolent sexism, overt and relational school aggression, and personal distress, and low in behavior regulation skills, perspective taking, and practical personal ability. We discuss the implications of these findings for the design of evidence-based TDV prevention campaigns.
