Adolescent relationship abuse (ARA) is prevalent among adolescents, including those who identify as Latine. However, there is limited research that has considered the cultural and structural mechanisms that may impact ARA experiences among Latine youth. Further, although parents play a crucial role in ARA prevention, few studies have investigated how adolescent-parent differences in acculturation and discrimination are associated with ARA. The objective of this exploratory study of Latine families was to examine how acculturation, discrimination, and adolescent-parent acculturation/discrimination differences relate to ARA victimization and perpetration. Parent-adolescent dyads recruited from clinic and community-based settings in Pittsburgh and Kansas City completed matched surveys. Parent-adolescent acculturation and discrimination differences were calculated using multilevel linear models. Multivariable logistic regression was used to examine associations among ARA victimization and perpetration and adolescent-reported acculturation, adolescent-reported discrimination, and adolescent-parent acculturation and discrimination differences. One hundred eighty-two adolescents and their parent/caregiver ( n = 364) completed a matched survey in English or Spanish from March 2020 to March 2021. Forty-three percent of adolescents reported that they had started dating; of these 35% and 24% reported ARA victimization and perpetration, respectively. Higher levels of adolescent-reported acculturation conflict were associated with lower ARA victimization (adjusted odds ratio [aOR]: 0.24; 95% confidence interval, CI [0.08, 0.75]); conversely, higher adolescent-reported discrimination was associated with ARA victimization (aOR: 2.50 [1.30, 4.60]) and perpetration (aOR: 2.10 [1.10, 3.90]). Wider adolescent-parent acculturation differences in Spanish language (aOR: 3.40 [1.04, 11.30]) and interpersonal discrimination (aOR: 2.40 [1.10, 5.20]) were associated with increased ARA victimization. Results underscore the importance of discrimination in understanding ARA experiences among Latine youth. Future work should consider developing culturally and linguistically affirming ARA prevention programs for Latine adolescents and parents.

文化适应、歧视和青少年关系虐待之间的关联：拉丁裔家庭的匹配父母-青少年研究


青少年关系虐待 （ARA） 在青少年中很普遍，包括那些自认为是拉丁裔的人。然而，考虑可能影响拉丁裔青年 ARA 经历的文化和结构机制的研究有限。此外，尽管父母在 ARA 预防中起着至关重要的作用，但很少有研究调查青少年父母在文化适应和歧视方面的差异与 ARA 的关系。这项针对拉丁裔家庭的探索性研究的目的是检查文化适应、歧视和青少年-父母的文化适应/歧视差异与 ARA 受害和犯罪的关系。从匹兹堡和堪萨斯城的诊所和社区环境中招募的父母-青少年二人组完成了匹配调查。使用多级线性模型计算父母-青少年的文化适应和辨别差异。多变量 logistic 回归用于检查 ARA 受害和犯罪与青少年报告的文化适应、青少年报告的歧视以及青少年父母的文化适应和歧视差异之间的关联。182 名青少年及其父母/看护人 （n = 364） 在 2020 年 3 月至 2021 年 3 月期间用英语或西班牙语完成了一项匹配的调查。43% 的青少年报告说他们已经开始约会;其中 35% 和 24% 分别报告了 ARA 受害和犯罪。青少年报告的文化适应冲突水平较高与ARA受害率较低相关（校正比值比 [aOR]： 0.24;95% 置信区间，CI [0.08,0.75]）;相反，青少年报告的歧视程度较高与 ARA 受害 （aOR： 2.50 [1.30， 4.60]） 和犯罪 （aOR： 2.10 [1.10， 3.90]）。西班牙语 （aOR： 3.40 [1.04， 11.30]） 和人际歧视 （aOR： 2.40 [1.10， 5.20]） 的更广泛的青少年-父母文化适应差异与 ARA 受害增加有关。结果强调了歧视在理解拉丁裔青年的 ARA 经历方面的重要性。未来的工作应考虑为拉丁裔青少年和父母制定文化和语言肯定的 ARA 预防计划。
