    Gender Differences in Cyber Dating Violence Among Adolescents and Young Adults: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
    (Wiley, 2025) Erbicer, Eyup Sabir; Metin, Ahmet; Zencir, Tolga; Boranli, Ece Nur; Demirtas, Ezgi Toplu; Sen, Sedat
    Despite the growing body of research on cyber dating violence, a comprehensive understanding of gender differences in cyber-violent behaviors across developmental stages remains limited. The main purpose of this meta-analytic review was to estimate the direction and magnitude of gender differences in cyber dating violence perpetration and victimization by synthesizing results from various studies. The second purpose of this study was to examine the effect of potential moderators (i.e., continent, age, grade level, time frame, method of survey administration, the metric of the outcome, study design, publication status, and publication year) on these differences. Various databases were used to identify relevant studies, including PubMed, Web of Science (WoS), Scopus, PsycINFO, ERIC, and ProQuest. Eighty-one individual studies with a total sample of 70,233 participants, ranging in age from 10 to 30 years (M = 18.94), were included based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria in the present study. Most studies were conducted in North America and Europe with the largest proportions from the United States and Spain. Results indicated that there were no statistically significant gender differences (women vs. men; girls vs. boys) in perpetration and victimization of cyber dating violence. Moderator analyses showed that grade level and sample age were statistically significant moderators of gender differences in cyber dating violence victimization. However, other moderators (continent, time frame, method of survey administration, the metric of the outcome, study design, publication status, and publication year) were not statistically significant. This study contributes to understanding gender differences in cyber-violent behaviors during adolescence and emerging adulthood and highlights the importance of some moderators when developing targeted prevention and intervention strategies.

    The Shadows of Internalized Bisexual Myths: Jealousy and Psychological Intimate Partner Violence Perpetration Among Bisexual Plus Individuals in Turkiye
    (SAGE Publications Inc, 2025) Zurnaci, Burcu; Demirtas, Ezgi Toplu; Toplu Demirtaş, Ezgi
    Bisexual+ (bi+) individuals may face unique challenges stemming from the internalization of myths related to their sexual orientation. This internalization may make individuals more sensitive to perceived threats in their relationships, which can increase feelings of jealousy. In turn, internalized bisexual myths and heightened jealousy may contribute to the perpetration of psychological intimate partner violence (IPV) within bi+ relationships. Thus, in this study, we aimed to examine the parallel mediating roles of cognitive and emotional jealousy in the association between internalized bisexual myths and psychological IPV perpetration. A sample of 230 bi+ individuals from Türkiye completed the (Internalized) Bisexual Myths Scale, the Multidimensional Jealousy Scale, and the Multidimensional Measure of Emotional Abuse Short Form. Overall, 94.3% of bi+ individuals reported perpetrating at least one act of psychological IPV against their partners within the past 6 months. Results from the parallel mediation analyses revealed that both cognitive and emotional jealousy mediated the relationship between internalized bisexual myths and psychological IPV perpetration. These findings suggest that bi+ individuals who internalize bisexual myths and exhibit higher levels of emotional and cognitive jealousy may be more susceptible to perpetrating psychological IPV against their partners. This study underscores the need for further research to better understand psychological IPV perpetration among bi+ individuals, highlighting the value of qualitative and longitudinal methods for gaining deeper insights.
