简要总结
This cluster-randomized school-based study will examine the effectiveness of a teen dating violence (TDV) and sexual violence (SV) prevention program called Expect Respect for preventing serious violence perpetration among middle school students.
详细描述
This cluster-randomized controlled school-based study will examine the effectiveness of a support group-based teen dating violence (TDV) and sexual violence (SV) prevention program on the primary prevention of serious (and potentially lethal) violence perpetration among middle school students (both male and female-identified) who have prior exposure to trauma and violence. Expect Respect gender-specific support groups are for youth with prior history of exposure to violence including witnessing domestic violence, loss of loved one to homicide, TDV, and SV.
Expect Respect is a theory and research-informed program intended to alter norms condoning violence and rigid gender expectations that foster violence perpetration, promote bystander intervention, and reduce TDV/SV perpetration. Implemented by trained facilitators, the 24-session curriculum focuses on gender equity and respect, recognizing abuse and impact on self and others, regulating emotions, skills for healthy relationships, and becoming active proponents of safe and healthy relationships.

结局指标
主要结局
Change from baseline in self-reported recent (past 3 months) violence perpetration at one year after baseline
时间窗: One year after baseline (Time 3)
Summary score of violence perpetration likely to result in serious injury or death (physical and sexual TDV - 4 items, SV - 5 items, threats with a weapon - 1 item, and physical fighting - 1 item), calculated as one point for each behavior endorsed and then summed (possible range: 0-11).
Change from baseline in self-reported recent (past 3 months) violence perpetration at End of Program
时间窗: End of program (average 24-30 weeks after baseline, Time 2 - primary endpoint)
Summary score of violence perpetration likely to result in serious injury or death (physical and sexual TDV - 4 items, SV - 5 items, threats with a weapon - 1 item, and physical fighting - 1 item), calculated as one point for each behavior endorsed and then summed (possible range: 0-11).
