“…Although White (1982), in a meta-analytic review, found that SES was only weakly associated with academic achievement, our results were consistent with previous literature suggesting a link between IPV and poorer academic achievement for our rural adolescents (Bergman, 1992; Chronister et al, 2014; Cleveland et al, 2003; Halpern et al, 2001). Grade distributions differed from A- or B-level average grades for females who were not victims to C-level grades or below on average for those who were.…”

Interpersonal violence (IPV) in adolescence is a serious public health concern and may have lasting behavioral effects and implications for adult relationships. Adolescents from 2 rural Appalachian high schools in 2011/2012 were surveyed using the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Youth Risk Behavioral Surveillance (YRBS) survey, which assessed (a) physical IPV within a dating relationship, (b) sexual IPV (defined as forced sex/rape), and (c) those who experienced both. We present baseline rates of each form of IPV for these rural male and female adolescents and assessed the strength and statistical significance of these associations between physical and sexual IPV and other risk factors using χ2 tests and relative risk ratios. Results suggested that each form of IPV was associated with greater risk for depression and suicidal behaviors, substance use, risky sexual behaviors for both sexes, and lower academic grades for females. Relative risk ratios tended to be more robust and statistically significant for females compared with males on most risk behaviors. Furthermore, victimization for both forms of IPV was more pernicious for these students than either form of IPV alone. We discuss the implications of these results for students, parents, school personnel, and mental health providers in these communities. (PsycINFO Database Record

“…Although several studies have examined psychological, behavioral, and developmental consequences of adolescent dating violence victimization (e.g., Banyard and Cross, 2008; Button and Miller, 2013; Chronister et al, 2014; Collibee and Furman, 2014; Foshee et al, 2013; Holmes and Sher, 2013; Teten et al, 2009; Ulloa et al, 2014), very few have examined injury as a consequence. This study is a first step in addressing gaps in the field related to understanding injuries sustained by victims of dating violence.…”

Medical needs of youth who experience dating violence are not well understood because of limited past research examining the prevalence and predictors of injuries and medical help seeking. To address these gaps, the current study described the prevalence and predictors of injuries from dating violence from grades 8 through 12 in a large sample of youth. Results indicate that one third to one half of youth who experienced any physical and/or sexual dating violence also sustained an injury. Prevalence of injury was highest in the 8th grade and was significantly higher for females than for males across grades 8 through 11. Youth who experienced greater amounts of violent victimization in their relationships (physical, sexual, and psychological) were at highest risk for injury. Results also suggest that victims at highest risk for injury are girls, white youth, those experiencing multiple types of violence, and those who also engage in perpetration. Given the high prevalence of injury among youth who report dating violence, healthcare professionals may be in a unique position to screen and counsel youth about dating violence. Because the highest prevalence of injury occurred before high school, prevention programs should start early and selected prevention may be used for youth at highest risk for injury.

“…Teenagers that experience or have been exposed to dating violence are more likely to exhibit some of these behaviors: withdrawal, poor sleep, depression, anxiety, suicidal thoughts, aggressive behaviors to peers, substance abuse, early onset-sexual activity, have multiple dating and sexual partners, exhibit rude and anomaly behaviors in school [6,22] and at home [8,15,19]. The overall academic performance of the teen drops [14] and there is irregular school and class attendance with the sole intention of spending time with their partner [6].…”

Background: Dating violence is prevalent among high school teenagers in Mississippi and is currently a public health issue that needs intervention. Aims and objectives: This study aims to assess the prevalence of dating violence among high school teenagers in Mississippi and to determine the association of race, sex, gender, and grade level in dating violence experiences Methods: This study analyzed data from the 2019 Mississippi Youth Risk Behavior (YRBS), a cross-sectional school-based survey that collected data from students in 9th grade to 12 th grade in private and public schools. The data assessed the variations in demographic subdivision, thus observing any change in prevalence. Results: Our results indicate that female participants had higher rates of sexual violence (females:14.8%, males:(7.6%), sexual dating violence (females:10.3%, males:2.3%) and physical violence (females:10.9%, males:7.2%) than their male counterparts. Students aged 15 and younger are more likely to be victims of sexual violence, sexual dating violence, and physical violence than teenagers 16 or older. White females (7.8%) had higher rates of sexual dating violence when compared to blacks (5.0%). Also, Blacks are more likely to be victims of physical dating violence while Whites are more likely to be victims of sexual dating violence. Conclusions: Intimate partner violence affects teenagers of all ages, gender, and race. However, due to the high prevalence rate among women, they are particularly vulnerable-teenagers 15 and younger and females experience a higher rate of physical, sexual dating violence and sexual violence. Thus, there is an urgent need for violence awareness programs in high schools to help teenagers identify dating violence and seek help.
