Introduction
My area of research is the prevention of interpersonal violence in adolescence, focusing especially on the phenomena of sexual harassment and dating violence. I am a member of the IASED research group (www.iased.es). From our team we have developed prevention programs that have been effective in reducing teen dating violence (Dat-e Adolescence) and sexual harassment among peers (Prevent and Virtual-PRO).

There is a paucity of studies on dating violence profiles that incorporate the forms of cyber and sexual dating violence. Moreover, the results on the predictive role of peer violence on dating violence are inconsistent. Our aim was to identify dating violence profiles and to study the predictive value of peer violence profiles on dating violence p...
The effect of cyber dating victimization on adolescents’ adjustment is understudied. The present study aimed to analyze the impact of cyber dating victimization on antisocial behavior, anxious depressive symptoms, and stress management according to their frequency and stability over time. In the study, 453 Spanish students aged between 12 and 19 ye...
Introduction
Understanding the specific risk profile for distinct forms of dating aggression (DA) is very informative to define cross-cutting interventions. The study aims to evaluate whether specific profiles of risk defined using a person-oriented approach predicted physical, sexual, and psychological DA after 6 months.
Methods
Eight hundred six...
This study investigated adolescents’ understanding of cyber dating aggression in terms of frequency and aggressiveness: how prevalent they perceived cyber dating aggression among adolescents and how aggressive they perceived such behaviors to be. To do so, different WhatsApp scenarios were presented to adolescents, controlling for the typology of c...

Background/Objective: The study of sexual cyberbehaviour in adolescence has received much attention in recent years, because of the risks associated with exposure to pornography, unwanted sexual solicitations, and gender-based sexual harassment. The prevalence of this phenomenon varies from study to study due to a lack of consensus around how to de...
Recent studies suggest that the online and offline behaviors young people display in romantic relationships are closely related. However, the differential effects of the dimensions of couple quality in the online context have not yet been explored in depth. The aim of this study was to explore online couple quality in young-adult relationships, and...

I want to analyze the efficacy of an intervention. The intervention is a cluster randomized control trial and we are comparing two waves (pretest vs. posttest). We have also two groups (experimental vs control group). I found that the basic formula is that ICC = between variance/between variance+whitin variance; However, I think that this formula doesn't consider that I have two time points. I found another formula in Kärna et al. (2011)' paper (see link below), where ICC is variance between cluster / variance between waves of measurement + variance between cluster + variance between individuals. I have two questions:
1. What do you think about Kärna et al. (2011)` formula? And if you think that it is ok, then, How I can compute the different variances?
2. If you consider that the formula proposed by Kärna et al. (2011) is not appropriate, How would you compute ICC in my case?
Link to Kärna et al. (2011)` paper: http://www.kivaprogram.net/assets/files/belgium_public/child-development-january_february-2011.pdf
Thank you in advance!!!
I'm obtaining CFI = .82 (using MPLUS) and CFI=.96 (using LISREL); in both cases, I have employed MLR to estimate my model. Why does the value of CFI, using a CFA, vary from LISREL to MPLUS?
