“…Studies included in this category were mostly cross-sectional. Only two studies were longitudinal (Calvete, Fernández-González, Orue, & Little, 2018; Fernández-González, Calvete, & Orue, 2018). Four studies were based on clinical samples, four on convenience samples, three on random samples and two on probabilistic samples.…”

Abstract. Attitudes toward intimate partner violence against women (IPVAW) are increasingly recognized as central to understanding of this major social and public health problem, and guide the development of more effective prevention efforts. However, to date this area of research is underdeveloped in western societies, and in particular in the EU. The present study aims to provide a systematic review of quantitative studies addressing attitudes toward IPVAW conducted in the EU. The review was conducted through Web of Science, PsychINFO, Medline, EMBASE, PUBMED, and the Cochrane Library, in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses (PRISMA) recommendations. This review aimed to identify empirical studies conducted in the EU, published in English in peer-reviewed journals from 2000 to 2018, and analyzing attitudes toward IPVAW. A total of 62 of 176 eligible articles were selected according to inclusion criteria. Four sets of attitudes toward IPVAW were identified as the main focus of the studies: legitimation, acceptability, attitudes toward intervention, and perceived severity. Four main research themes regarding attitudes toward IPVAW emerged: correlates of attitudes, attitudes as predictors, validation of scales, and attitude change interventions. Although interest in this research area has been growing in recent years, the systematic review revealed important gaps in current knowledge on attitudes toward IPVAW in the EU that limits its potential to inform public policy. The review outlines directions for future study and suggests that to better inform policy making, these future research efforts would benefit from an EU-level perspective.

“…For example, interpreting the dating partner behavior as a result of more situational and malleable factors (for instance, having problems at school) would reduce feelings of shame and anger in partner conflict situations. Given that anger has showed a relevant role in the prediction of DVP (Fernández-González, Calvete, & Orue, 2018;Hettrich & O'Leary, 2007), its decrease would eventually reduce perpetration of DV. In addition, one's belief in his/her potential to change would help to react and behave differently when a conflict with the dating partner emerges.…”

Dating violence (DV) is an important, prevalent problem in adolescence worldwide (Wincentak, Connolly, & Card, 2017). It includes any act of physical, emotional, or sexual violence that can take place in person or electronically (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2016). The recent meta-analytic review of teen DV prevalence rates by Wincentak et al. (2017) showed an overall rate of 20% and 9% for physical and sexual aggression, respectively.

“…These may even become desirable forms of behavior and relationship [ 2 ]. The discrepancies between actual abuse and the perception the couple has of the form of relating to each other has aroused great interest among researchers [ 10 , 11 , 12 ]. Acceptance of violence is related to processes of aggression and victimization between the members of the couple [ 13 ].…”

The normalization of aggressive behavior in teenage couples when they are dating is a phenomenon that is currently reaching very worrying proportions. The consequences are creating a serious public health problem and have hence aroused the interest of many researchers as to its causes. Most have centered on the role of the aggressor. However, the processes of aggression and victimization are inseparable, and relegating the victims to the background only contributes to increasing the prevalence, severity, and perdurability of the problem. The objectives of this study were to: (i) identify the types and frequency of abuse that adolescents suffer in their relationships; (ii) analyze the relationship between sexist attitudes, acceptance of violence, and victimization; and (iii) determine predictors of the violence suffered in adolescent dating relationships. The sample comprised 2577 adolescents (55.2% girls) of 14 to 18 years in age (M = 15.9, SD = 1.2). The instruments used were the dating violence questionnaire (Cuestionario de Violencia de Novios, CUVINO) and the Scale of detection of sexism in adolescents (Escala de Detección de Sexismo en Adolescentes, DSA). The results indicate that victims showed high tolerance towards gender violence. Acceptance was greater the more frequent the abuse or aggressions suffered. Regarding sexist attitudes, only those belonging to the benevolent dimension had predictive value. The results also show that the interaction between acceptance of the abuse suffered and the manifestation of benevolent sexist attitudes predicted victimization involving specific forms of aggression.
