    En este estudio se realiza una revisión sistemática con el objetivo de analizar los términos, definiciones y dimensiones utilizados, así como las tasas de prevalencia del ciberabuso de pareja. Tras el análisis, el término ciberabuso de pareja (CP) se considera el más adecuado. Se proporciona además una definición completa del constructo junto con las dimensiones relacionadas. Con el fin de sintetizar las tasas de prevalencia de la victimización de CP, se realiza un metaanálisis de 16 estudios, que incluyen 14,235 participantes, basado en el instrumento más adecuado y utilizado. El metaanálisis indica una prevalencia global estimada de victimización por CP del 47%, 63% para la dimensión control y para la de agresión psicológica directa un 24%. Además, los resultados apenas mostraron diferencias entre la victimización de chicos y chicas, lo que avalaría la simetría de género. A pesar de algunas limitaciones, la revisión bibliográfica y metaanalítica arroja luz sobre el campo del CP.

    In this study, a systematic review was carried out with the aim of analyzing the terms, definitions, dimensions, and prevalence rates of cyber dating abuse (CDA). After the analysis, the term cyber dating abuse is considered as the most appropriate and a complete definition of the construct is provided, along with the related dimensions. In order to synthesize the victimization prevalence rates of CDA, a meta-analysis of 16 studies was also carried out, including 14,235 participants, based on most suitable and most commonly used instrument for CDA measurement. This meta-analysis indicated an estimated global prevalence of CDA victimization of 47%, the prevalence for the control dimension being 63%, while for direct psychological aggression it was 24%. The results hardly showed differences between male and female victimization, which would support gender symmetry. Despite some limitations, this bibliographic and meta-analytic review sheds light on the field of CDA.
