This study examined etiological pathways to teen dating violence (TDV) in a sample of adolescents who had been followed since infancy and were at high-risk due to parental alcohol problems. Adolescents (M=17.68 years of age) who had been participating, along with their parents, in a longitudinal study of the effects of parental alcohol problems on child development completed an additional wave of survey data in 11-12th grades. Families (N=227) were initially recruited from county birth records when the child was 12 months of age and had been previously assessed at 12-, 18-, 24-, 36-months, kindergarten, 4th, 6th, and 8th grades. For the current wave of data collection, adolescent participants (n=185) used computer-assisted interviewing to complete questionnaires assessing their individual characteristics, family and peer relationships, substance use, dating behaviors and involvement in TDV as a victim or perpetrator.

Study Purpose

This study examined the direct and indirect associations between early childhood risk factors and the proximal predictors of teen dating violence (TDV) in early adolescence. It also examined the role of early adolescent risk factors as proximal predictors of TDV in early adolescence.

Study Design

The study collected an additional wave of survey data from a sample of adolescents who were previously recruited along with their parents for a longitudinal study of parenting and infant development. The adolescents were asked to complete computerized survey questionnaires in a lab. Measures on both parents and children were used.

Sample

Sample was taken from an existing longitudinal study of the effects of parental alcohol problems on infant and child development.

Time Method

Cross-sectional
