Adverse childhood experiences, such as household dysfunction (HD), play a central role in how adolescents establish, experience, and navigate the challenges of relationship formation, maintenance, and dissolution. HD exposures have been independently associated with dating violence (DV) perpetration in both adolescents and adults. However, research examining the association between the concurrent effect of HD on DV perpetration, especially among adolescents remains scarce. Thus, we conducted a scoping review to accumulate and summarize existing research regarding the impact of HD on DV perpetration among adolescents aged 10 to 17 years in the United States. We used three electronic databases, Medline (Ovid), PsycINFO, and EMBASE, to search for studies published in English between 2013 and August 2023. A total of 14 studies were retained for this review after full-text screening. Most of the included studies (64%) were longitudinal. Concerning HD measurement, 71% of studies evaluated witnessing intimate partner violence (IPV), and the remaining 29% assessed family conflict, both using different instruments. Regarding DV measurement, 43% of studies utilized the Safe Dates Abuse measures to assess various forms of DV perpetration. Findings from 3/4 (75%) studies that evaluated family conflict found it to be a significant predictor of DV perpetration. Additionally, 8/10 (80%) studies that assessed exposure to IPV reported significant associations with various forms of DV perpetration among adolescents. None of the included studies measured HD comprehensively; thus, measurement development is imperative. Findings from this review may help initiate the development of a more comprehensive HD measure, promote early intervention, and foster resilience among adolescents.

家庭功能障碍对美国青少年约会暴力行为的影响：范围界定审查。


不良的童年经历，例如家庭功能障碍（HD），在青少年如何建立、经历和应对关系形成、维持和解除的挑战方面发挥着核心作用。 HD 暴露与青少年和成人的约会暴力 (DV) 行为独立相关。然而，关于 HD 与 DV 实施之间的关联性的研究（尤其是在青少年中）仍然很少。因此，我们进行了范围界定审查，以积累和总结有关 HD 对美国 10 至 17 岁青少年家庭暴力实施影响的现有研究。我们使用 Medline (Ovid)、PsycINFO 和 EMBASE 三个电子数据库检索 2013 年至 2023 年 8 月期间以英文发表的研究。经过全文筛选，总共保留了 14 篇研究用于本次综述。大多数纳入的研究（64%）都是纵向的。关于 HD 测量，71% 的研究评估目击亲密伴侣暴力 (IPV)，其余 29% 评估家庭冲突，两者都使用不同的工具。关于 DV 测量，43% 的研究利用安全日期滥用措施来评估各种形式的 DV 实施。 3/4 (75%) 评估家庭冲突的研究发现，家庭冲突是家庭暴力实施的重要预测因素。此外，评估 IPV 暴露情况的 8/10 (80%) 研究报告称，与青少年中各种形式的 DV 犯罪存在显着关联。纳入的研究均未全面测量 HD；因此，测量的发展势在必行。本次审查的结果可能有助于制定更全面的 HD 衡量标准，促进早期干预，并培养青少年的适应能力。
