As intimate partner violence in a cyber world is increasing, scholars have started to pay attention to this phenomenon. This study aims to provide a systematic review of empirical studies in the technology-facilitated intimate partner violence (TFIPV) field. We analyzed 31 studies that examined direct TFIPV perpetration and/or victimization experiences identified from four of the largest databases (i.e., Web of Science, PsyInfo, PubMed, and SCOPUS). We found that most studies recruited adolescents or young adults (i.e., college students) and used a very diverse range of terminologies that describe similar phenomena but are not based on validated instruments. We discuss the implications of our findings and suggestions that can enhance the field’s rigor and guide future research.

随着网络世界中亲密伴侣暴力行为的增多，学者们开始关注这一现象。本研究旨在对技术促进的亲密伴侣暴力 (TFIPV) 领域的实证研究进行系统评价。我们分析了 31 项研究，这些研究检查了从四个最大的数据库（即 Web of Science、PsyInfo、PubMed 和 SCOPUS）中确定的直接 TFIPV 实施和/或受害经历。我们发现，大多数研究招募了青少年或年轻人（即大学生），并使用了非常多样化的术语来描述类似现象，但并非基于经过验证的工具。我们讨论了我们的发现和建议的意义，这些建议可以提高该领域的严谨性并指导未来的研究。
