The Dating Violence among Latino Adolescents follow-up (DAVILA - II) study consists of follow up-interviews with parent and youth respondents from the DAVILA study (see ICPSR 34630) about experiences that occurred after the baseline interview for the purpose of investigating dating violence, co-morbid victimization, psychosocial outcomes of dating violence, help-seeking efforts by Latino youth, and the impact of cultural factors on these associations. The goal of DAVILA - II was to collect a second wave of data from the participants in the original DAVILA study, resulting in longitudinal data that would allow the researchers to overcome many of the limitations associated with cross-sectional data.
description: The purpose of the study was to 
examine dating violence among Latino adolescents over time; 
evaluate the longitudinal patterns of co-occurring victimization (polyvictimization) for Latino victims of dating violence; 
examine the predictors of victimization patterns to understand the influences on dating violence over time ; 
examine formal and informal help-seeking among Latino adolescents who experienced dating violence ; 
determine the subsequent psychosocial impact of dating violence;
description: The Dating Violence among Latino Adolescents follow-up (DAVILA - II) study was designed to follow-up with parent and youth respondents from the DAVILA (ICPSR 34630) study about experiences that occurred after the baseline interview. Respondents who agreed to be re-contacted (n = 1,427) in the DAVILA study were eligible for the follow-up survey. The sample was mailed an advance letter and a reply form along with a pre-paid business reply envelope before data collection began. In total 576 respondents agreed to be re-interviewed. Interviews took place between February 14, 2013 and August 26, 2013. After a brief parent/caretaker survey, interviewers asked for permission to conduct the remainder of the survey with the child. After parent/caretaker consent was obtained, and the child came to the phone, the child was read the oral assent. Those who agreed proceeded with the child portion of the interview. Parents who completed the parent portion of the interview received a five dollar check and the child received a fifteen dollar check for completing the child portion of the interview.
description: The DAVILA - II study contains 796 variables. Adolescent participants were asked about abusive situations (physical, emotional and sexual) involving peers, adults, and dating partners experienced since the first interview. They were also asked about help-seeking behaviors involving school, doctors, police and others, and what types of help were received. The DAVILA-II study also incorporated cultural variables including Anglo orientation (acculturation) Latino orientation (enculturation), familism, immigrant status, in addition to variables related to social support.
description: Post stratification weights (raked_weight_wave2) were applied to adjust for demographic variables, census block density, number of eligible children in the household, and non-response. Details about the weighting procedure are presented in the survey firm methods report.
