“…In Deans and Bhogal's (2017) study, gender was significantly associated with CDA, with women reporting less perpetration of CDA than men, contrary to other previous studies (e.g., Bennett et al, 2011;Burke et al, 2011) were women were more likely than men to perpetrate controlling online behaviors. These inconsistent findings have been attributed to the fact that men and women perpetrated CDA differently: men tend to perpetrate more direct acts of aggression (Perry & Pauletti 2011;Taylor & Xia, 2018) while women more indirect acts (Hyde, 2005), such as monitoring behaviors (Taylor & Xia, 2018). Studies (e.g., Sánchez et al, 2015;Smith et al, 2018) examining the relation between age and CDA victimization have also reached discrepant results: Smith et al (2018) concluded that age was not associated with cyber victimization, cyber perpetration, or mutual cyber violence; in turn, Sánchez et al (2015) reveled a positive association between age and CDA victimization, although the size of these associations varied according to the different abusive typologies.…”
