| contents | <p>Abstract<br>Purpose Teen dating violence (TDV) refers to harmful behavior perpetrated in the context of the relationship between adolescents.<br>This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of perpetration TDV according to gender and to identify latent classes<br>of young people with different patterns of behavior.<br>Methods The sample consists of 862 secondary school students (50.2% girls and 49.8% boys) of different Spanish regions,<br>with an average age of 14.1 years. TDV was measured in a cross-sectional study applying a latent class analysis.<br>Results It was found that TDV is mainly bidirectional and is present in 57.2% of participants of both genders. Only 10.6%<br>were exclusively aggressors, and 6.3% were victims only. A high probability of perpetration behaviors appears especially for<br>verbal-emotional TDV (65.4%), compared to physical TDV (20.1%) and relational TDV (15.7%). The categorical nature of<br>TDV perpetration was shown by a three-class model (none/low TDV perpetration; jealousy/manipulation TDV perpetration;<br>high TDV perpetration). Only gender differences were observed for jealousy/manipulation TDV.<br>Conclusions Results suggest that TDV is mostly bidirectional, with verbal/emotional violence being more common than<br>physical and relational violence. TDV coheres into three latent classes (low, jealousy/manipulation, and high), of which the<br>middle profile is more common among girls than boys.</p> |
