Résumé
La violence dans les relations amoureuses des adolescent·es (VRA) représente un enjeu de santé publique associé à plusieurs conséquences néfastes et chroniques sur le plan de la santé mentale et physique. La prévalence alarmante de cette problématique souligne la nécessité de déployer des stratégies préventives efficaces dès l’adolescence. Malgré le rôle crucial des parents dans la prévention de la VRA, les initiatives leur offrant des outils restent limitées. Le programme Étincelles, dispensé en milieu scolaire au Québec, cible la promotion des relations amoureuses positives et la prévention de la VRA chez les jeunes de 3ème et 4ème secondaire (14 à 16 ans). Il inclut une composante pour outiller les parents à s’engager dans la prévention de la VRA chez les jeunes à l’aide de sept capsules vidéo. Cette étude qualitative vise à documenter : 1) l’appréciation des parents; 2) les effets perçus et 3) leurs recommandations quant aux capsules vidéo du programme Étincelles. À la suite de leur visionnement, un total de 17 parents (82,4 % femmes; 76,5 % âgé·es entre 40 et 49 ans) a participé à une entrevue individuelle semi-dirigée. Une analyse thématique a révélé une appréciation positive du contenu pédagogique des capsules, perçues comme étant particulièrement efficaces pour favoriser l’engagement éducatif des parents face aux relations amoureuses des jeunes. Les recommandations formulées soulignent la pertinence de diversifier les modalités d’intervention pour élargir la portée du programme. Les capsules vidéo du programme Étincelles apparaissent donc comme une modalité d’intervention prometteuse pour engager activement les parents dans la prévention de la VRA auprès des jeunes.

Abstract
Teen dating violence (TDV) represents a significant public health issue, associated with numerous detrimental and chronic consequences on both mental and physical health of youth. The alarmingly high prevalence of this phenomenon underscores the imperative for the implementation of effective preventive strategies during adolescence. Despite the pivotal role parents play in adolescents’ romantic relationships, initiatives providing resources to engage them in TDV prevention remain scarce. The SPARX program, implemented within high schools in Quebec, aims to foster positive romantic relationships, and prevent TDV among students in the 9th and 10th grades (14 to 16 years old). The program includes a component designed to equip parents with tools to facilitate engagement in the prevention of TDV through seven video modules. This qualitative study aims to document: 1) parental appreciation; 2) perceived effects; and 3) recommendations regarding the video modules of the SPARX program. Following their viewing of the videos, a total of 17 parents (82.4% women; 76.5% aged between 40 and 49 years) participated in a semi-structured individual interview. Thematic analysis revealed a positive evaluation of the educational content of the videos, which is seen as particularly effective in promoting parental educational engagement regarding adolescents’ romantic relationships. The recommendations highlight the importance of diversifying intervention methods to broaden the program’s reach. Therefore, the video modules of the SPARX program emerge as a promising intervention modality for actively engaging parents in the prevention of TDV.
