摘要

The developmental perspective on victimization underscores the importance of examining the link between early life experiences and subsequent risk of victimization. The present study employs Latent Growth Class Modeling and Growth Mixture Modeling approaches to examine longitudinal associations between exposure to family violence, personal characteristics, and adolescent dating violence. Using data from the Longitudinal Studies on Child Abuse and Neglect (LONGSCAN), this study identified three subgroups of adolescent dating violence victimization trajectories—early-onset & declining, early-onset & increasing, and non/low victimization. Consistent with the state dependence perspective, exposure to family violence was positively associated with both early-onset & declining and early-onset & increasing trajectories. Population heterogeneity factors, particularly anxiety/depression and emotional disorders, were also associated with the early-onset groups but not with the non/low victimization trajectory. Finally, exposure to violence and emotional disorders was particularly relevant in distinguishing the non/low victimization group from the early-onset groups. These results suggest that exposure to violence in early childhood is linked to long-term outcomes in romantic relationships, beyond differences in individual characteristics related to victimization risk. This research further supports a developmental investigation of adolescent dating violence and underscores the importance of preventing early exposure to family violence.
