Adolescent Dating Violence: Theory, Research, and Prevention
summarizes the course, risk/protective factors, consequences and
treatment/prevention of adolescent dating violence. Dating violence
is defined as physical, sexual, psychological, and cyber behavior
meant to cause emotional, physical, or social harm to a current or
former intimate partner. The book discusses research design and
measurement in the field, focuses on the recent influx of
longitudinal studies, and examines prevention and intervention
initiatives. Divided into five sections, the book begins by
reviewing theory on and consequences of dating violence. Section II
discusses risk factors and protective factors such as peer
influences, substance use, and past exposure to violence in the
family of origin. Section III discusses how social and cultural
factors can influence teen dating violence, addressing the
prevalence of dating violence among different ethnicities and among
LGBTQ teens, and the influence of social media. Section IV
discusses recent research priorities including gender inequality,
measurement, psychological abuse, and the dual nature of dating
violence during adolescence. Section V reviews evidence-based
practice for treatment and prevention across various age groups and
settings.
