A newly published research brief from NIJ: Relationship Dynamics And Teen Dating Violence (PDF). It addresses the following research questions:
- Which relationship dynamics increase the risk for TDV or protect against abuse?
- How does the experience of TDV in one relationship influence the dynamics in subsequent relationships?
- How does the association between relationship dynamics and TDV change during the transition from early teen years into young adulthood?
As is often the case, this is a pretty superficial overview of the issue, so let this give you a sense of where you want to explore further. And of course, the Endnotes are valuable in and of themselves. Worth a download.
