DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Relationship violence negatively affects well-being, and is costly for individuals, couples, children, and society. Research has been conducted on teen dating violence (TDV) and marital relationships, but little research has focused on early adulthood, the period in which intimate partner violence (IPV) increases exponentially in frequency and seriousness. IPV necessarily occurs within a relationship context, but knowledge of the dynamics of young adult violent relationships is especially limited. Our symbolic interactionist theory emphasizes respondents' perceptions of the meanings and impact of IPV, and the need to identify universal and uniquely gendered aspects of IPV as individual's transition from adolescence to adulthood. We build on a large, prospective longitudinal study of adolescent and young adults' intimate relationships (Toledo Adolescent Relationships Study-TARS). In addition to four waves of previously collected interview data (n=1,319), currently we have funding to conduct a fifth wave of interviews with the youngest cohort (about one-third of the existing sample), focusing on three forms of violent victimization and perpetration (physical violence, psychological abuse, and sexual coercion). We request funding to conduct interviews with the two older cohorts (ages 24 & 26 at interview) who are at the peak ages of IPV, and to conduct separate in-depth interviews with both partners of a subsample of respondents (50 couples, n=100) reporting experience with IPV. We will address the following specific aims: 1: To analyze the incidence, prevalence, and patterns of relationship abuse from adolescence to young adulthood. The longitudinal design (ages 13-26) permits assessments of the sociodemographic patterning and developmental progressions of IPV experience. We will explore early risk factors and contemporaneous circumstances associated with trajectories of perpetration and victimization. We will identify factors linked to IPV escalation and persistence, and determine the long term effects of IPV on behavioral and emotional health as well as adult union formation and stability. 2: To examine similarities and differences in the nature, qualities and dynamics within violent and non-violent relationships. We focus on the subjectively experienced dynamics of intimate relationships that we hypothesize amplify the risk of violence, and identify ways in which gender affects these subjective experiences. We include attention to positive features of intimate relationships which have not figured heavily into either research or prevention efforts, but may be critical to understanding relationship dynamics associated with heightened risk, as well as decisions to continue or leave a violent relationship. The TARS elicits information about multiple relationships at each wave, so we can examine within-individual changes across time and different relationships. 3: To identify situational contexts that amplify risk for violence. In most instances, relationship violence is not a routine event highlighting the need for research on situational factors that amplify risk. We will document the progression of abuse within relationships by assessing cognitive, emotional, behavioral and social factors that influence patterns of escalation and de-escalation.

描述（由申请人提供）：关系暴力会对福祉产生负面影响，并且对个人、夫妇、儿童和社会造成高昂代价。人们已经对青少年约会暴力 (TDV) 和婚姻关系进行了研究，但很少有研究关注成年早期，即亲密伴侣暴力 (IPV) 的频率和严重性呈指数级增加的时期。 IPV 必然发生在关系环境中，但对年轻人暴力关系动态的了解尤其有限。我们的象征性互动理论强调受访者对 IPV 的含义和影响的看法，以及随着个人从青春期到成年的过渡，需要识别 IPV 的普遍性和独特的性别方面。我们以一项针对青少年和年轻人亲密关系的大型前瞻性纵向研究（托莱多青少年关系研究-TARS）为基础。除了之前收集的四轮访谈数据（n = 1,319）外，目前我们还有资金对最年轻的群体（约占现有样本的三分之一）进行第五轮访谈，重点关注三种形式的暴力受害和犯罪（身体暴力、心理虐待和性胁迫）。我们请求资金对处于 IPV 高峰年龄的两个老年群体（采访时年龄为 24 岁和 26 岁）进行访谈，并对受访者子样本的双方（50 对夫妇，n= 100) 报告 IPV 经验。我们将实现以下具体目标： 1：分析从青春期到成年早期关系虐待的发生率、流行率和模式。纵向设计（13-26 岁）允许评估 IPV 经历的社会人口模式和发展进程。我们将探讨与犯罪和受害轨迹相关的早期风险因素和同期情况。我们将确定与 IPV 升级和持续存在相关的因素，并确定 IPV 对行为和情绪健康以及成人婚姻形成和稳定性的长期影响。 2：检查暴力和非暴力关系中性质、品质和动态的异同。我们关注亲密关系的主观体验动态，我们假设这种动态会放大暴力风险，并确定性别影响这些主观体验的方式。我们关注亲密关系的积极特征，这些特征在研究或预防工作中并未占据重要地位，但对于理解与高风险相关的关系动态以及继续或离开暴力关系的决定可能至关重要。 TARS 会在每一波中引出有关多种关系的信息，因此我们可以检查个体内部随时间和不同关系的变化。 3：确定放大暴力风险的情境。在大多数情况下，关系暴力并不是常见事件，这凸显了对放大风险的情境因素进行研究的必要性。我们将通过评估影响升级和降级模式的认知、情感、行为和社会因素来记录关系中虐待的进展。
