Abstract
The National Survey of Teen Relationships and Intimate Violence (STRiV) examines the changing nature of adolescent dating relationships, particularly those marked by adolescent relationship abuse (ARA). More specifically, this study was designed to produce nationally representative estimates of the prevalence of multiple forms of ARA among youth (ages 10-18), to document the characteristics of abusive relationships during adolescence, to assess ARA risk factors, and to situate these estimates within the environment of adolescents' key social relationships and communications. STRiV includes individual data from a nationally representative sample of households with at least one resident youth. Baseline and follow-up surveys were completed using a secure web survey with toll-free telephone and online help available. -
Abstract
The National Survey of Teen Relationships and Intimate Violence (STRiV) examined the changing nature of adolescent dating relationships, particularly those marked by adolescent relationship abuse (ARA). More specifically, this study was designed to produce nationally representative estimates of the prevalence of multiple forms of ARA among youth (ages 10-18), to document the characteristics of abusive relationships during adolescence, to assess ARA risk factors, and to situate these estimates within the environment of adolescents' key social relationships and communications. The goals of this study included the following: Provide a national portrait of the prevalence of varying categories of ARA victimization and perpetration, including levels of physical and emotional injury, and describe how exposure to these forms of ARA varies by gender, socio-economic status and other key demographic characteristics. ; Identify specific conditional attitudes, dating relationship characteristics, and peer network dynamics associated with ARA risk, and to determine whether these pathways are uniquely gendered. ; Investigate specific consequences of ARA to dating relationships, and whether the adolescent discloses information about ARA incidents to peers and others and their responses. ; -
Methods
Researchers recruited a nationally representative sample of 5,105 households with at least one resident youth between the ages of 10 and 18 to complete an adult parent or caregiver baseline survey and a separate child survey online from October 2013 to January 2014. Of the 5,105 recruited households, 556 of the sample actively refused to participate in the study and 1,816 did not respond to the invitation. While the GfK/KnowledgePanel used to collect respondents consisted of a database of resident children, a further 279 households were screened ineligible (for example, the expected youth did not reside in the household), equivalent to about 7% of the responding sample. The 2,354 completed youth surveys represent a participation rate of 50% among eligible households. A somewhat larger group of parents agreed to do the baseline survey (n=2,645); 2,354 of the children of these parents completed a baseline survey. If the recipient parent or adult caregiver (PCG) consented to participate, a web survey algorithm randomly chose an eligible child in that household to participate in the study. Next, the participating child and PCG received an invitation by e-mail to complete the surveys, which were presented sequentially with child assent required prior to child participation. For the youth survey, the PCG consent rate (for self and child participation) was 82.6%, and the child assent rate was 98.3%. Communications with the PCG stressed the importance of allowing the selected child to complete the survey privately. While the 40-minute youth survey was available in English or Spanish, few youth respondents selected the Spanish option (n=128, 5%). Each youth and parent was provided a small cash incentive ($10 each) for completing the baseline survey. At each data collection wave, GfK reviewed the STRiV cohort status to prepare invitations for those who remained active Knowledge Panelists and those who had withdrawn from the KnowledgePanel (i.e., accepting no new studies) but remained active in the STRiV study; a small group of respondents who had withdrawn permanently from the KnowledgePanel and all ongoing studies were lost to follow-up. Households were offered a $20 incentive for completing the baseline surveys through the GfK points system. -
Methods
STRiV includes the following variables: demographic variables (gender, age, race/ethnicity, language, education, employment status, U.S. Census region, metropolitan area, and Internet access);; household composition including gender and age of all children between ages of 10 and 18;; parent's characterization of child's traits (e.g. athletic, angry, often upset);; parent's characterization of relationship with child and partner;; parent's beliefs about child's current or future dating behavior;; parent's opinions about and/or perpetration of behaviors related to intimate partner violence; child's characterization of relationship with parent;; child's characterization of child's traits (e.g. even-tempered, angry); child's beliefs about dating relationships, including balance of power (e.g. girls should have the same freedom as boys);; child's relationship experience;; child's opinions about behaviors related to intimate partner violence;; child's experiences with intimate partner violence (victimization and/or perpetration);; child's experiences with sexual harassment and abuse (victimization and/or perpetration);; child's participation in illegal activities;; child's characterization of major friendships;; -
Methods
Response Rates: 50% of eligible households participated in the baseline survey. 62.5% of households completing the baseline survey also participated in the Wave 2 follow-up. The wave 3 response rate of youth baseline respondents was 70.5% and the wave 4 response rate of youth baseline respondents was 69.5%. -
