| dc.description.abstract | Purpose: This research examined whether experiencing physical teen dating violence (TDV) relates to trauma symptoms, which in turn, predict future physical dating violence victimization in early adulthood. Methods: Adolescents (N=843) recruited from high schools reported on their experiences of physical TDV victimization and trauma symptoms. The sample was followed over a 5-year period to assess for re-victimization in early adulthood. Results: Trauma symptoms functioned as a mediator between experiences of physical TDV victimization during adolescence and later re-victimization in early adulthood, even in a conservative test of mediation that controlled for baseline trauma symptoms. Multi-group analyses testing for gender differences suggest this mediation model is significant for females, but not for males. Conclusions: The present findings suggest the mental health consequences of experiencing physical TDV are an important factor contributing to future victimization in early adulthood. This holds potentially important implications for school-based efforts for reducing physical TDV. Specifically, school-based efforts to reduce victimization may be enhanced by supplementing existing efforts with empirically-supported programs for addressing trauma symptoms.
