dc.description.abstractThe study investigated the concepts of moral development and sex roles in relation to adolescent courtship violence in 157 adolescents (ages 14 through 18). Moral development was measured by the Defining Issues Test (DIT) (Rest, 1986); Sex roles by the BEM Inventory (BEM, 1978), and Violence by the Conflict Tactic Scale (CTS) (Straus, 1979). These instruments were given in combination with the Teen Curriculum on Dating Violence designed by the author.
dc.description.abstractUsing the Pearson Correlations, significant relationships were found between androgyny and the Conflict Tactic Reasoning subscale for a friend (CTSRF) r = 0.20, and between androgyny and the Conflict Tactic Reasoning subscale for the individual (CTSRI) r = -.28.
