AB Teen  dating  violence  (TDV),  which  includes  physical  violence,  sexual  aggression,  and  psychological  abuse,  is  a  major  public  health  concern  in  the  United  States.  New  forms  of  sexual  harassment  and  avenues  for  TDV  are  emerging  through  the  use  of  blogs,  chat  rooms,  texting,  sexting,  and  social  networking  sites,  placing  an  increasing  number  of  teens  at  risk  of  becoming  victims  of  TDV.  This  chapter  provides  an  overview  of  different  forms  of  abuse,  including  terminology  and  prevalence,  as  well  as  screening  for  TDV  and  anticipatory  guidance,  risk  and  protective  factors,  consequences,  prevention,  and  treatment.
