Current State of Psychological Research on Intimate Partner Violence: Implications for Legal Proceedings
Open AccessMichelle Drouin, Jody M Ross et al.ARTICLEBehavioral Sciences & the Law2026
Intimate partner violence (IPV) is a serious and widespread public health concern. Not only has it been the subject of thousands of papers published over the past three decades, but it also appears frequently in legal proceedings across criminal, civil, and family court contexts. To have currency in the field, forensic experts and other individuals working in court systems must identify and synthesize a wide and complex body of literature, from t…
Gender Discrepancy Stress and Sexual Victimization Explain Sexual Minority Youths' Mental Health Disparities
Open AccessHailey Rueden, Briana Edison et al.ARTICLEJournal of Adolescence2026
BACKGROUND: Sexual minority youth are disproportionately at risk of psychopathology. This may be due, in part, to their elevated risk of sexual violence victimization. However, gender discrepancy stress stemming from the fear of repercussions for their gender nonconformity (e.g., sexual violence) may be a more salient driver of their psychopathology. Discrepancy stress is linked broadly to psychopathology among cisgender heterosexual populations.…
Short‐ and long‐term associations between recent stressful life events and adjustment among adolescents: The role of coping orientations
Open AccessKimberly R M Osborne, Sabina Low et al.ARTICLEJournal of Research on Adolescence2026
This study explores the influence of experiencing one, two or more stressful life events (SLE) in the past year in associations with adolescent sleep and depression symptomatology in the short and long term in the context of coping. Participants were 2323 Hispanic (44.1%), non-Hispanic Black (30.5%), non-Hispanic White (8.6%), and non-Hispanic Asian (16.7%) eighth graders (51.1% female) from 24 public middle schools in southeast Texas in 2019. Mu…
Coping Patterns over Time and the Association with Stress, Depression and Self-Efficacy Among Adolescents: Latent Transition Analysis
Open AccessHye Jeong Choi, D H Shin et al.ARTICLEChildren2026
Coping in adolescence is heterogeneous and shifts over time, with gender differences in profile prevalence and transitions; findings highlight potential targets for tailored support and self-efficacy enhancement
Adolescents' Understanding of Consent and Associations With Sexual Violence Experiences
Open AccessBriana Edison, Hailey Rueden et al.ARTICLEJournal of Adolescence2025
INTRODUCTION: Adolescents have a nontrivial risk of sexual violence (SV) victimization. Comprehension of sexual consent is posited to reduce victimization rates; however, few studies have examined adolescents' comprehension of consent and its relationship to SV. The objectives of this study are thus to examine how adolescents' contextual understanding of consent relates to their experiences of SV victimization and perpetration. METHODS: Cross-sec…
Exploring reciprocal links between early adolescent coping and internalizing symptoms
Open AccessCaitlyn Mytelka, Sarah C Narendorf et al.ARTICLEJournal of Adolescence2025
INTRODUCTION: The rising prevalence of depression and anxiety among adolescents is a public health concern. Early adolescence is a key developmental period to reduce risks for internalizing symptoms through primary prevention programs, yet additional research is needed on modifiable factors, such as coping skills, to target to mitigate risk factors. Therefore, we investigated the reciprocal link between coping style and internalizing symptoms amo…
Clinical Factors and Social Determinants of Health Predict Elder Mistreatment at Two Years Among Older Adults: A Preliminary Prediction Model
Open AccessMonique R Pappadis, Karen E Schlag et al.ARTICLEINQUIRY The Journal of Health…2025
Low rates of screening for elder mistreatment preclude early detection and harm reduction. No validated tools currently exist to identify elder mistreatment with high sensitivity. We developed, internally validated, and tested a preliminary prediction model to improve elder mistreatment screening of older adults. This retrospective observational study used 20% national Medicare Fee-for-Service claims data for the logistic regression and machine l…
Short-Term Health and Safety Outcomes Associated With Digital Hotline Use at Interpersonal Violence-Focused Agencies
Open AccessLeila Wood, Ernst Baumler et al.ARTICLEINQUIRY The Journal of Health…2025
Community organizations strive to help survivors of intimate partner violence (IPV), stalking, sexual assault and human trafficking address health and safety needs. Hotline, offered by local agencies, is the first line of support for survivors to address needs. Increasingly, hotline is offered in digital formats (chat and text) to meet the emergent needs of survivors. Despite the growing use of digital hotline, little is known about short-term he…
Psychosocial Impacts of Non-Fatal Firearm Injuries on Youth: Findings from a Qualitative Study
Open AccessAnnalyn S DeMello, Jeff R Temple et al.ARTICLEINQUIRY The Journal of Health…2025
Most adolescents and young adult victims of firearm violence survive, yet the mental and behavioral health outcomes associated with these incidents remain understudied. Given the potential for recurrent violence victimization and long-term psychosocial sequela after being shot, understanding the experiences of firearm injury survivors is a critical area for development. We conducted a qualitative study to explore the development of attitudes, des…

Abstinence beliefs in early adolescence and sexual risk behavior two years later
Open AccessShristi Bhochhibhoya, Briana Edison et al.ARTICLEJournal of Adolescence2024
INTRODUCTION: The United States has the highest teen pregnancy rate and sexually transmitted infection rates among developed countries. One common approach that has been implemented to reduce these rates is abstinence-only-until-marriage programs that advocate for delaying sexual intercourse until marriage. These programs focus on changing adolescents' beliefs toward abstinence until marriage; however, it is unclear whether adolescents' beliefs a…
Findings from the Mighty Girls Efficacy Trial: Changes in Acceptance of Dating Violence
Open AccessMichael L Hecht, Anne E Norris et al.ARTICLEChildren2024
Study findings demonstrate that a social emotional learning (SEL) curriculum can impact sexual behaviors such as susceptibility to dating violence. Low baseline levels for sexual intentions and behaviors as well as a high baseline of efficacy may have impacted findings for the other outcomes

Examining the Relation Between Early Violence Exposure and Firearm-Related Experiences in Emerging Adulthood: A Longitudinal Cohort Study
Open AccessMelissa Osborne, Dennis E Reidy et al.ARTICLEPsychological Reports2024
Firearms are a leading cause of death among adolescents and young adults in the United States. Early exposure to violence, as a victim or witness, is associated with increased risk of firearm-related experiences, including carrying and threatening others with a gun. These experiences, in turn, increase the risk of both fatal and non-fatal firearm injuries. Using an ethnically diverse sample of emerging adults, we build on prior research by examin…

Measurement of adolescent psychological wellbeing: A test of factor structure and measurement invariance
Open AccessHena Thakur, Jae Wan Choi et al.ARTICLEJournal of Research on Adolescence2024References: 10
Gains in holistic approaches to adult mental health have been associated with increasing interest in understanding psychological wellbeing (PWB) among adolescents. Empirical examination of measurement models for PWB in adolescence is lacking. Thus, the current study examined PWB in a longitudinal, diverse sample of 433 adolescents (non-Latinx Black: 37.6%; non-Latinx White: 25.9%; Latinx: 36.5%; Male adolescents: 50.1%). A one-factor, correlated …

Suicidal ideation and psychological dating violence victimization—A short report
Open AccessJackson W S Gasperecz, Ernst Baumler et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Psychiatry2023
As the second leading cause of death among Americans aged 10 to 34, suicide is a serious public health concern. One potential predictor of suicidality is dating violence (DV) victimization, such as any physical, psychological, or sexual abuse by a current or former intimate partner. However, little longitudinal data exists on the relationship between suicidal ideation and DV. To address this gap in knowledge, we leverage data from two years of ou…
Reproductive Coercion and Intimate Partner Violence Perpetration Among Young Adult Males
Open AccessEmily A Muñoz, Vi Donna Le et al.ARTICLEViolence Against Women2023References: 3
Reproductive coercion is any behavior that attempts to control the autonomous reproductive decision-making of an intimate partner. Very little research has focused on males who perpetrate reproductive coercion. Using a diverse community sample of young adults, we examined the prevalence of lifetime reproductive coercion perpetration and its relationship with other forms of intimate partner violence (IPV). Results demonstrated that approximately 6…
