The study of adolescent relationship violence arouses vast interest but unfortunately the tools available for this purpose are limited. This study aims to verify the structural validity of the Conflict in Adolescent Dating Relationship Inventory (CADRI). 571 Spaniards subjects (171 males and 400 females) aged 17 to 21 (M = 18.76; SD = 1.208) took part in the study. Results show a model for suffered violence and another structural one for committed violence, both revealing adequate fit indexes, significant saturations and high internal consistency indexes. Each one of the models proposed comprises four factors: physical violence, verbal violence, relational violence and style of conflict resolution.

Keywords : dating violence; adolescence; CFA; Relationship Violence Scale; quantitative research; psychological test; Spain.
