在751名非裔美国城市青年(14 - 17岁)和他们的母亲的样本中,研究了21名父母和16名青少年在讨论性和生育控制时可能存在的特定话题保留意见。从母亲和青少年的角度来看,具体保留的流行程度以及它们对沟通行为的预测程度都得到了结论:主题特定保留比更一般的家庭环境变量(如父母-青少年关系的质量和总体沟通质量)更能预测沟通行为。我们发现了许多互动效应,表明保留的不同影响是青少年年龄和性别的函数。父母所表达的保留意见类型与青少年所表达的保留意见类型不一致。
Twenty-one parental and 16 adolescent topic-specific reservations that parents and adolescents may have about discussing sex and birth control were explored in a sample of 751 African American inner-city youths (14 to 17 years old) and their mothers. Both maternal and adolescent perspectives were obtained with regard to the prevalence of specific reservations and the extent to which they were predictive of communication behavior: Topic-specific reservations were predictive of communication behavior over and above more general family environment variables, such as the quality of the parent-teen relationship and the overall quality of communication in general. A number of interaction effects were found, suggesting a differential impact of reservations as a function of the age and gender of the adolescent. The types of reservations expressed by parents were not correspondent with the types of reservations expressed by adolescents.
