Abstract

This study examines the moderating role of relationship length on the association between coercive sexting and intimate partner violence (IPV) perpetration. Research has supported a positive association between coercive sexting and IPV perpetration (Drouin et al., 2015), though no prior research has examined how relationship length moderates this association. To test this relationship, we administered a multipart questionnaire online to 798 undergraduate participants (79% White, 77% female, M_Age = 19.1 years) currently in a relationship. We assessed physical, psychological, and sexual IPV perpetration. Relationship length moderated the link between coercive sexting and sexual IPV perpetration. More specifically, the association was stronger in longer-term compared to shorter-term relationships. These results carry implications for future research and IPV education and intervention programs, suggesting that they should incorporate coercive sexting into their curriculums and target newer couples.

大学生在短期和长期关系中的胁迫性 Sexting 和亲密伴侣暴力侵害行为。

本研究探讨了关系长度对胁迫性色情短讯与亲密伴侣暴力（IPV）之间关联的调节作用。研究表明，胁迫性色情短信与 IPV 施暴之间存在正相关关系（Drouin 等人，2015 年），但此前没有研究探讨了关系长度如何调节这种关系。为了检验这种关系，我们对目前处于恋爱关系中的 798 名本科生参与者（79% 白人，77% 女性，平均年龄 = 19.1 岁）进行了多部分在线问卷调查。我们对身体、心理和性方面的 IPV 行为进行了评估。关系长度调节了胁迫性色情短信与性 IPV 施暴之间的联系。更具体地说，与短期关系相比，长期关系中的关联性更强。这些结果对未来的研究和 IPV 教育与干预项目具有启示意义，建议这些项目将胁迫性短信息纳入其课程，并以新婚夫妇为目标。

期刊介绍： We all face the difficult problem of understanding and treating the perpetrators and victims of violence behavior. Violence and Victims is the evidence-based resource that informs clinical decisions, legal actions, and public policy. Now celebrating its 25th year, Violence and Victims is a peer-reviewed journal of theory, research, policy, and clinical practice in the area of interpersonal violence and victimization. It seeks to facilitate the exchange of information on this subject across such professional disciplines as psychology, sociology, criminology, law, medicine, nursing, psychiatry, and social work.
