  • Changes in acceptance of Dating Violence and physical Dating Violence victimization in a longitudinal study with teens
    Child Abuse & Neglect, 2018
    Co-Authors: Marie E. Karlsson, Maegan Calvert, Juventino Hernandez Rodriguez, Rebecca Weston, Jeffrey Temple
    Abstract:

    Abstract Teen Dating Violence is a pervasive issue in adolescence and has been linked to maladjustment (Temple, Shorey, Fite et al., 2013). Physical Dating Violence is a particularly significant problem with one in five adolescents reporting experiencing physical teen Dating Violence (TDV; Wincentak et al., 2017). Acceptance of Violence has been suggested to increase the risk of TDV; however, most studies to date have been cross-sectional. The purpose of the current study is to examine patterns of acceptance of Dating Violence and TDV victimization across time. Participants were ethnically diverse teenagers (N = 1042; ages 13–18) who were followed over a four-year period. Multivariate latent growth curve modeling techniques were used to determine trajectories of physical TDV victimization and attitudes accepting of Dating Violence. Results showed two trajectories for physical TDV victimization, linear and quadratic, and two trajectories for acceptance of Dating Violence, non-linear and quadratic. Parallel models investigating the interplay between TDV victimization and acceptance demonstrated two possible trends; however, we did not find any evidence for a longitudinal relationship between the two variables, suggesting that change in acceptance was not related to change in physical TDV victimization. Instead, our results suggest a significant amount of heterogeneity in these trajectories. These findings suggest studies are still needed to further explore longitudinal patterns of TDV to better understand how to reduce the risk of teen Dating Violence.

  • Cannabis use and Dating Violence among college students: A call for research
    Drug and Alcohol Review, 2017
    Co-Authors: Ryan C. Shorey, Jeffrey Temple, Catherine Strauss, Ellen E. Haynes, Gregory L. Stuart
    Abstract:

    Dating Violence is a serious and prevalent problem on college campuses. Although there is a robust literature documenting that alcohol use is consistently associated with increased risk for perpetrating Dating Violence, little research has examined the role of cannabis in Dating Violence perpetration. With increasing legalisation of cannabis throughout the world, it is imperative to understand what role, if any, cannabis may play in the important public health problem of Dating Violence. In this commentary, we discuss the current state of the research on cannabis and Dating Violence and suggest avenues for additional research in this area. It is critical that we conduct methodologically sound research on the association between cannabis and Dating Violence so that we can understand what role, if any, cannabis exerts on this important problem.

  • childhood corporal punishment and future perpetration of physical Dating Violence
    The Journal of Pediatrics, 2017
    Co-Authors: Jeffrey Temple, Hye Jeong Choi, Tyson Reuter, David A Wolfe, Catherine A Taylor, Sheri Madigan, Lauren E Scott
    Abstract:

    Objective To test whether experiencing childhood corporal punishment is linked to later perpetration of Dating Violence. Study design Young adults (n = 758; 61% female; mean age of 20 years), originally recruited for a longitudinal study as 9th- and 10th-grade Texas high school students, were asked about their childhood experiences with corporal punishment and physical abuse, as well as current experiences with Dating Violence. A path model was used to determine whether childhood corporal punishment was related to recent perpetration of physical Dating Violence, while controlling for childhood physical abuse, age, sex, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status. Results In all, 19% of participants (n = 134) reported physical Dating Violence perpetration and 68% reported experiencing corporal punishment as children (n = 498). Analysis showed a significant positive association between corporal punishment and physical perpetration of Dating Violence (OR 1.30, 95% CI 1.07-1.59). Even after controlling for sex, ethnicity, age, parental education, and child physical abuse, childhood corporal punishment was associated significantly with physical Dating Violence perpetration (aOR 1.29, 95% CI 1.02-1.62). Conclusions The finding that childhood corporal punishment was associated with perpetration of young adult physical Dating Violence, even after controlling for several demographic variables and childhood physical abuse, adds to the growing literature demonstrating deleterious outcomes associated with corporal punishment.

  • Psychological Abuse, Mental Health, and Acceptance of Dating Violence Among Adolescents.
    Journal of Adolescent Health, 2016
    Co-Authors: Jeffrey Temple, Meagan J. Brem, Joanna Elmquist, Gregory L. Stuart, Hye Jeong Choi, Michael L. Hecht, Michelle Miller-day, Caitlin Wolford-clevenger
    Abstract:

    Abstract Purpose Existing literature indicates that acceptance of Dating Violence is a significant and robust risk factor for psychological Dating abuse perpetration. Past work also indicates a significant relationship between psychological Dating abuse perpetration and poor mental health. However, no known research has examined the relationship between acceptance of Dating Violence, perpetration of Dating abuse, and mental health. In addition to exploring this complex relationship, the present study examines whether psychological abuse perpetration mediates the relationship between acceptance of Dating Violence and mental health (i.e., internalizing symptoms of depression, anxiety, and hostility). Methods Three waves of longitudinal data were obtained from 1,042 ethnically diverse high school students in Texas. Participants completed assessments of psychological Dating abuse perpetration, acceptance of Dating Violence, and internalizing symptoms (hostility and symptoms of anxiety and depression). Results As predicted, results indicated that perpetration of psychological abuse was significantly associated with acceptance of Dating Violence and all internalizing symptoms. Furthermore, psychological abuse mediated the relationship between acceptance of Dating Violence and internalizing symptoms. Conclusions Findings from the present study suggest that acceptance of Dating Violence is an important target for the prevention of Dating Violence and related emotional distress.

  • Witnessing Interparental Violence and Acceptance of Dating Violence as Predictors for Teen Dating Violence Victimization
    Violence Against Women, 2015
    Co-Authors: Marie E. Karlsson, Jeffrey Temple, Rebecca J Weston, Vi Donna Le
    Abstract:

    We examined the association between witnessing interparental Violence, attitudes about Dating Violence, and physical and psychological teen Dating Violence (TDV) victimization. Participants were 918 teens with Dating experience. Witnessing interparental Violence and acceptance of Dating Violence were significant predictors of TDV victimization. Acceptance of Dating Violence was also a partial mediator between witnessing interparental Violence and TDV victimization. Witnessing mother-to-father Violence and acceptance of female-perpetrated Violence were the most consistent predictors. TDV programs aiming to prevent victimization could benefit from targeting youth exposed to father-to-mother and mother-to-father Violence, targeting attitudes about Violence, and tailoring interventions to gender-specific risk factors.

  • Patterns of Dating Violence Victimization and Perpetration among Latino Youth.
    Journal of Youth and Adolescence, 2016
    Co-Authors: H. Luz Mcnaughton Reyes, Vangie A Foshee, May S. Chen, Susan T. Ennett
    Abstract:

    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 vs. 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.

  • gender role attitudes and male adolescent Dating Violence perpetration normative beliefs as moderators
    Journal of Youth and Adolescence, 2016
    Co-Authors: Luz Mcnaughton H Reyes, Vangie A Foshee, Phyllis Holditch Niolon, Dennis E Reidy, Jeffrey E Hall
    Abstract:

    Commonly used Dating Violence prevention programs assume that promotion of more egalitarian gender role attitudes will prevent Dating Violence perpetration. Empirical research examining this assumption, however, is limited and inconsistent. The current study examined the longitudinal association between gender role attitudes and physical Dating Violence perpetration among adolescent boys (n = 577; 14 % Black, 5 % other race/ethnicity) and examined whether injunctive (i.e., acceptance of Dating Violence) and descriptive (i.e., beliefs about Dating Violence prevalence) normative beliefs moderated the association. As expected, the findings suggest that traditional gender role attitudes at T1 were associated with increased risk for Dating Violence perpetration 18 months later (T2) among boys who reported high, but not low, acceptance of Dating Violence (injunctive normative beliefs) at T1. Descriptive norms did not moderate the effect of gender role attitudes on Dating Violence perpetration. The results suggest that injunctive norms and gender role attitudes work synergistically to increase risk for Dating Violence perpetration among boys; as such, simultaneously targeting both of these constructs may be an effective prevention approach.

  • Bullying as a Longitudinal Predictor of Adolescent Dating Violence
    Journal of Adolescent Health, 2014
    Co-Authors: Vangie A Foshee, Heath Luz Mcnaughton Reyes, Alana M. Vivolo-kantor, Kathleen C. Basile, Ling-yin Chang, Robert Faris, Susan T. Ennett
    Abstract:

    Purpose: One suggested approach to preventing adolescent Dating Violence is to prevent behavioral precursors to Dating Violence, such as bullying. However, no longitudinal study has examined bullying as a behavioral precursor to Dating Violence. In this study, longitudinal data were used to examine (1) whether direct and indirect bullying perpetration in the sixth grade predicted the onset of physical Dating Violence perpetration by the eighth grade and (2) whether the associations varied by sex and race/ethnicity of the adolescent. Methods: Data were collected in school from sixth graders in three primarily rural counties and then again when students were in the eighth grade. Analyses were conducted with 1,154 adolescents who had not perpetrated Dating Violence at the sixth-grade assessment. The sample was 47% male, 29% black, and 10% of another race/ethnicity than black or white. Results: Direct bullying, defined as hitting, slapping, or picking on another kid in the sixth grade, predicted the onset of physical Dating Violence perpetration by the eighth grade, controlling for indirect bullying and potential confounders. Although indirect bullying, defined as spreading false rumors and excluding students from friendship groups, was associated with the onset of physical Dating Violence perpetration in bivariate analyses, it did not predict the onset of physical Dating Violence when controlling for direct bullying. None of the associations examined varied by sex or race/ethnicity of the adolescents. Conclusions: Our findings suggest that efforts targeted at preventing direct bullying may also prevent the onset of physical Dating Violence.

  • typologies of adolescent Dating Violence identifying typologies of adolescent Dating Violence perpetration
    Journal of Interpersonal Violence, 2007
    Co-Authors: Vangie A Foshee, Karl E Bauman, Fletcher Linder, Jennifer Rice, Rose Wilcher
    Abstract:

    Acts scales, the most common way of measuring partner Violence, have been criticized for being too simplistic to capture the complexities of partner Violence. An alternative measurement approach is to use typologies that consider various aspects of context. In this study, the authors identified typologies of Dating Violence perpetration by adolescents. They conducted in-depth interviews with 116 girls and boys previously identified by an acts scale as perpetrators of Dating Violence. They provided narrative descriptions of their Dating Violence acts. For boys and girls, many acts considered violent by the acts scale were subsequently recanted or described as nonviolent. From the narratives, they identified four types of female perpetration that were distinguished by motives, precipitating events, and the abuse history of the partners. One type of perpetration accounted for most acts by boys. The findings are discussed relative to Dating Violence measurement, prevention and treatment, and development of th...

  • adolescent Dating Violence do adolescents follow in their friends or their parents footsteps
    Journal of Interpersonal Violence, 2004
    Co-Authors: Ximena B Arriaga, Vangie A Foshee
    Abstract:

    Past research suggests that adolescents whose parents are violent toward one another should be more likely to experience Dating Violence. Having friends in violent relationships also may increase the odds of Dating Violence. The authors examined which antecedent, friend Dating Violence or interparental Violence, if either, is more strongly predictive of own Dating Violence perpetration and victimization. Five hundred and twenty-six adolescents (eighth and ninth graders) completed self-report questionnaires on two occasions over a 6-month period. Consistent with hypotheses, friend Dating Violence and interparental Violence each exhibited unique cross-sectional associations with own perpetration and victimization. However, only friend Violence consistently predicted later Dating Violence. The authors explored influence versus selection processes to explain the association between friend and own Dating Violence.

  • Polydrug Use and Dating Violence Among Emerging Adults.
    Journal of interpersonal violence, 2020
    Co-Authors: Hye Jeong Choi, Hannah Grigorian, Gregory L. Stuart, Alisa Garner, Jeff R Temple
    Abstract:

    We examined sociodemographic and psychosocial risk factors that moderate the (poly) substance use and Dating Violence victimization and perpetration relationship among emerging adults. Using an ethnically diverse sample (N = 698), we used latent class analyses to identify mutually exclusive groups based on monthly and past-year substance use. We then examined these groups as they relate to Dating Violence victimization and perpetration and the moderating effect of various risk factors. Five classes were identified based on substance use patterns: (a) Regular Alcohol use, (b) Polysubstance use, (c) Heavy Alcohol and Marijuana use, (d) Mild Alcohol use, and (e) Occasional Alcohol and Marijuana use classes. Participants in the Polysubstance use class were the most likely to perpetrate Dating Violence followed by Heavy Alcohol and Marijuana use, Occasional Alcohol and Marijuana use, Regular Alcohol, and Mild Alcohol use classes. Similarly, participants in the Polysubstance use class were the most likely to be victims of Dating Violence followed by Occasional Alcohol and Marijuana, Heavy Alcohol and Marijuana, Regular Alcohol, and Mild Alcohol use classes. Depending on substance use class, gender, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, history of Dating Violence, and trauma symptoms differentially influenced Dating Violence perpetration and victimization at 1-year follow-up. Our findings support the need to comprehensively address Dating Violence among emerging adults. Intimate partner Violence prevention and intervention programs may benefit from targeting emerging adults who misuse substances and incorporating substance use interventions into Dating Violence prevention efforts.

  • College-Based Dating Violence Prevention Strategies
    Adolescent Dating Violence, 2018
    Co-Authors: Meagan J. Brem, Autumn Rae Florimbio, Hannah Grigorian, Joanna Elmquist, Caitlin Wolford-clevenger, Gregory L. Stuart
    Abstract:

    Abstract Dating Violence gained increased attention as a prevalent public health concern among college campuses. Despite its high prevalence and serious negative consequences, efforts to intervene with college Dating Violence have been largely unsuccessful and plagued with methodological limitations. This chapter reviews the definitions and epidemiology of college Dating Violence. Theoretical conceptualizations of Dating Violence are outlined followed by an overview of college-based Dating Violence prevention programming. Limitations of current research practices as well as legal, health, and policy implications for college Dating Violence research are discussed.

  • Substance Use and Adolescent Dating Violence: How Strong is the Link?
    Adolescent Dating Violence, 2018
    Co-Authors: Catherine Strauss, Gregory L. Stuart, Ellen E.h. Johnson, Ryan C. Shorey
    Abstract:

    Abstract Dating Violence, including psychological, physical, and sexual aggression, is a pervasive problem among adolescents. There has been some research to indicate that substance use is related to both Dating Violence perpetration and victimization. This chapter reviews the literature on alcohol use, marijuana use, and use of other drugs and their relation to Dating Violence perpetration and victimization among adolescents. The literature demonstrates a consistent link between alcohol use and Dating Violence perpetration and victimization, though the relationships between marijuana and use of other drugs and Dating Violence is less clear. Studies in this field are limited by methodological flaws including a primary focus on physical Violence and limited data on temporal associations between substances and Dating Violence. Further research should be conducted to better understand potential causal relationships between substance use and Dating Violence, which will inform Dating Violence prevention and intervention programs.

  • Dating Violence Prevention Programming: Directions for Future Interventions.
    Aggression and Violent Behavior, 2012
    Co-Authors: Ryan C. Shorey, Heather Zucosky, Hope Brasfield, Jeniimarie Febres, Tara L. Cornelius, Chelsea Sage, Gregory L. Stuart
    Abstract:

    Abstract Dating Violence among college students is a widespread and destructive problem. The field of Dating Violence has seen a substantial rise in research over the past several years, which has improved our understanding of factors that increase risk for perpetration. Unfortunately, there has been less attention paid to Dating Violence prevention programming, and existing programs have been marred with methodological weaknesses and a lack of demonstrated effectiveness in reducing aggression. In hopes of sparking new research on Dating Violence prevention programs, the current review examines possible new avenues for Dating Violence prevention programming among college students. We discuss clinical interventions that have shown to be effective in reducing a number of problematic behaviors, including motivational interventions, dialectical behavior therapy, mindfulness, and bystander interventions, and how they could be applied to Dating Violence prevention. We also discuss methodological issues to consider when implementing Dating Violence prevention programs.
