为了探讨父母间敌意与青少年问题行为之间的联系，本研究考察了四个重要的母亲养育维度作为潜在的中介：接受，苛刻，不一致，和心理侵入。以1，893名六年级学生为主要样本，这些措施包括青少年和教师报告。结构方程模型显示，每个养育结构部分介导的内化和外化的青少年问题。严厉是青少年外化的最强中介。心理侵扰和母亲接受度低是青少年内化的最强中介。不一致性与内化和外化都有类似的联系。与离异父母相比，已婚父母的家庭中发现了更强的联系，但总体上模式相似。在外溢过程中，青年的性别和种族差异很小。研究结果提供了一个过程模型，了解父母间的冲突和青少年的问题。
To explore the link between interparental hostility and adolescent problem behaviors, the current study examines four important maternal parenting dimensions as potential mediators: acceptance, harshness, inconsistency, and psychological intrusiveness. With a primary sample of 1,893 sixth-grade students, the measures included adolescent and teacher reports. Structural equation modeling revealed that each parenting construct partially mediated both internalizing and externalizing adolescent problems. Harshness was the strongest mediator for adolescent externalizing. Psychological intrusiveness and low maternal acceptance were the strongest mediators for adolescent internalizing. Inconsistency linked similarly to both internalizing and externalizing. Stronger linkages were found in families with married parents compared to those with divorced parents, but overall the patterns were similar. Youth gender and ethnic differences in the spillover processes were minimal. The findings provide a process model for understanding interparental conflict and adolescent problems.
