Abstract The development of valid measures of adolescent dating aggression through social network sites and instant messages is still scarce. The aim of this study was to analyze the measurement invariance of an instrument assessing online control, intrusiveness and jealousy among adolescent couples in Spain and Mexico. Participants were 530 adolescents with romantic experience (223 Spanish, 51.57% girls; 307 Mexicans, 49.35% girls), mean aged 15.82 (Spain) and 16.30 (Mexico). Multi-group analyses showed a consistent factorial invariance of the measure. Prevalence rates were higher than 70% in both countries. Mexican adolescents scored higher in control than Spaniards, and Mexican boys were more intrusive than girls. Results emphasized the cultural equivalence of the constructs and similarities between countries in adolescents\' aggressive online behavior.
