In this paper, the authors study some arithmetic properties and the second moment of generalized Dedekind sums defined by \textit{T. Stucker} et al. [``Dedekind sums arising from newform Eisenstein series, Preprint, \url{arXiv:1907.01524}]. Let \(\chi_1\) and \(\chi_2\) be nontrivial primitive characters modulo \(q_1\) and \(q_2\), respectively, such that \(\chi_1\chi_2(-1)=1\). The generalized Dedekind sum associated to \(\chi_1\) and \(\chi_2\) is given by \[ S_{\chi_1,\chi_2}(a,c)=\sum_{j\bmod c}\sum_{n\bmod q_1}\overline{\chi_2}(j)\overline{\chi_1}(n)B_1\left(\frac{j}{c}\right)B_1\left(\frac{n}{q_1}+\frac{aj}{c}\right), \] where \(B_1\) is the first Bernoulli function \[ B_1(n)=\begin{cases} 0, & \text{if }n\in\mathbb{Z},\\ x-\lfloor x\rfloor-\frac{1}{2}, & \text{if }n\in\mathbb{R}\setminus\mathbb{Z}. \end{cases} \] Let \(\chi^{\star}\) denote the primitive character that induces a given character \(\chi\) and \(q(\chi)\) denote its conductor. Let \(\tau(\chi)=\sum_{n\bmod q}\chi(n)e(nl/q)\) be the Gauss sum. For \(q_1q_1\mid c\), by calculating the Fourier transform of \(S_{\chi_1,\chi_2}(a,c)\), the authors obtain \[ \mathop{\sum_{a\bmod c}}_{(a,c)=1}\left|S_{\chi_1,\chi_2}(a,c)\right|^2 =\frac{\varphi(c)}{\pi^4}\mathop{\sum_{\psi\bmod c}}_{\psi\chi_1(-1)=-1} \left|L(1,\bar{\psi}^{\star}\chi_1)\right|^2 \left|L(1,(\psi\chi_2)^{\star})\right|^2 \left|g_{\chi_1,\chi_2}(\psi;c)\right|^2, \] where \[ g_{\chi_1,\chi_2}(\psi;c)=\tau\left((\overline{\psi\chi_2})^{\star}\right)\tau(\psi^{\star})\tau(\overline{\chi_1}) \times\mathop{\sum_{d\mid c}}_{d\equiv0 \pmod{q(\psi)}}\frac{\overline{\chi_2}(c/d)}{\varphi(d)}\left((\overline{\psi\chi_2})^{\star}\mu\ast1\right)(d)(\chi_1\ast\mu\psi^{\star})\left(\frac{d}{q(\psi)}\right). \] Furthermore, the authors derive upper and lower bounds for the second moment above, which implies that \[ \mathop{\sum_{a\bmod c}}_{(a,c)=1}\left|S_{\chi_1,\chi_2}(a,c)\right|^2 =q_1c^{2+o(1)}. \]
