“…While also using individual data, other studies have documented dyadic risk factors of DV. For example, communication difficulties (Schumacher, Feldbau-Kohn, Slep, & Heyman, 2001), power imbalance (Connolly, Nocentini, & al., 2010), and greater relationship conflicts (Connolly, Friedlander, Pepler, Craig, & Laporte, 2010;O'Keefe, 2005) have consistently been linked with perpetration of violence against a dating partner.…”

This study uses a combination of observational methods and dyadic data analysis to understand how boyfriends' and girlfriends' perpetration of dating violence may shape their own and their partners' problem-solving communication behaviors. A sample of 39 young heterosexual couples aged between 15 and 20 years (mean age 17.8 years) completed a set of questionnaires and were observed during a 45 minute dyadic interaction, which was coded using the Interactional Dimension Coding System (IDCS). Results suggest that, neither boyfriends nor girlfriends own perpetration of dating violence was related to their display of positive and negative communication behaviors. However, estimates revealed significant partner effects, suggesting that negative communication behaviors displayed by girls and boys and positive communication behavior displayed by girls were associated to their partner's dating violence but not to their own. Such results confirm the need to shift our focus from an individual perspective to examining dyadic influences and processes involved in the couple system and the bi-directionality of violent relationships. Keywords dyadic interaction patterns; adolescence; dating violenceDating violence (DV) is highly prevalent among adolescents and emerging adults, with estimates of reported perpetrated DV ranging between 14% and 82% for psychological violence, 11% and 41% for physical violence, and 3% and 10% for sexual violence (Foshee & Matthew, 2007). The scope of the problem as well as the adverse consequences it can incur on adolescents' physical and mental well-being, have made DV a major public health concern. There has been accumulating evidence that a large proportion of violence in adolescents dating relationships is bidirectional (perpetrated by both partners). For example, a recent review of the literature showed that, on average, 57.5% of intimate partner violence reported across samples (population, community, school and clinical samples) could be categorized as bidirectional (Langhinrichsen-Rohling, Selwyn, & Rohling, 2012). According CIHR Author Manuscript CIHR Author Manuscript CIHR Author Manuscriptto the results of a meta-analytic review by Stith, Smith, Penn, Ward, and Tritt (2004), maleto-female physical violence victimization is a strong predictor of the victim using violence toward her partner. Further, the results from a study on the co-occurrence of partner and parent physical violence found that one partner's aggression against the other increased the risk of female-to-male aggression by five times and of male-to-female aggression by 10 times (Slep & O'Leary, 2005). However, authors point out that the presence of bidirectional violence does not mean that all aspects of female and male violence are symmetrical as many gender differences can still be evident. For example, girls aged 12 to 17 have been found to be more likely to experience physically injurious or fear-inducing incidents of dating violence (Hamby & Turner, 2013).In order to take better account of bi-directionality, i...

“…Ein erheblicher Teil ehemaliger "Lover" wird in das bestehende Freundschaftsnetzwerk integriert (SeiffgeKrenke und Shulman 2012). Internationale Studien weisen einen erheblichen Prozentsatz von Aggression in den ersten romantischen Beziehungen aus (Connolly et al 2010;Davila et al 2009;Jouriles et al 2009), wobei man zwischen physischer Aggression (z. B. schlagen, treten, schubsen) und psychischer oder relationaler Aggression (z.…”

“…Unsere Teilnehmer, eine Stichprobe von Jugendlichenpaaren mit einem hohen Schulniveau (Gymnasiasten, die sich mit Jugendlichen aus der gleichen und anderen Schulen/Kontexten befreundeten), berichten niedrige bis moderate Aggressionslevels und entsprechen damit gut den internationalen Befunden (Connolly et al 2010;Nocentini et al 2011;Landbeater et al 2008 Nur ein kleiner Anteil von Paaren, nämlich 7 %, waren durch starke wechselseitige Aggression in beiden Formen, körperlich und relational, gekennzeichnet. Es ist erstaunlich, dass diese hochaggressiven Paare so lange zusammenblieben, denn in der Regel ist Aggression ein Trennungsgrund , diese Paare hatten aber eine genauso lange Beziehungsdauer wie die anderen Paare.…”

Partnerschaftsaggression tritt nicht nur bei Erwachsenen, sondern bereits in den ersten Liebesbeziehungen von Jugendlichen auf und prägt das Aggressionsniveau in Folgepartnerschaften. Aggression inPartnerschaften ist ein Interaktionsgeschehen. Um jugendlichen Paaren früh genug effektive Unterstützung anbieten zu können, ist es wichtig, Ursachen und Formen der Aggression am Beginn der Partnerschaftsentwicklung zu erheben und dabei die Sicht beider Partner einzubeziehen.

“…Individual level factors include youth substance use (O'Donnell et al 2006;Reyes et al 2012), sexual risk behaviors (Cleveland et al 2003), poor emotion regulation (Foshee et al 2010), and acceptance of traditional gender roles (Lichter and McCloskey 2004). Relationship-level factors include conflict in dating relationships (Connolly et al 2010), parental modeling of conflict (Stocker and Richmond 2007), peers experiencing and perpetrating peer and/or dating violence (Foshee et al 2010), and negative parent-child interactions (Ehrensaft and Cohen 2012;Linder and Collins 2005).…”
