两项研究探讨了作为儿童破坏性行为问题预测因子的父母间攻击和母亲反社会人格的联合作用的本质和过程。这两项研究的参与者包括201名母亲及其2岁儿童的高风险样本，采用纵向多方法设计。解决的形式之间的相互作用的父母间的侵略和母亲的反社会人格的风险因素并发和前瞻性水平的儿童破坏性问题，研究1的结果表明，母亲的反社会人格是一个预测的初始水平的学龄前儿童的破坏性问题独立的影响，父母间的暴力，共病形式的母亲的精神病理学，和社会经济因素。在证明显着的父母间的侵略在幼儿的生活中，潜在的差异分数分析进一步揭示，父母间的侵略介导了母亲的反社会人格和随后的变化之间的联系，在1年的时间内，儿童破坏性的问题。要确定的家庭机制，占两种形式的代际传递的破坏性问题中确定的研究1，研究2探讨了儿童的困难的气质，情绪反应，父母间的冲突，肾上腺皮质反应在一个具有挑战性的亲子任务的作用，和经验与母亲养育调解过程。分析确定了儿童的情绪反应冲突和母亲的反应迟钝的调解员之间的途径父母的侵略和学龄前儿童的破坏性问题。研究结果进一步支持了钝化的肾上腺皮质反应性的作用，作为一个allostatic调解人的家长反应迟钝和儿童的破坏性问题之间的关联。
Two studies examined the nature and processes underlying the joint role of interparental aggression and maternal antisocial personality as predictors of children's disruptive behavior problems. Participants for both studies included a high-risk sample of 201 mothers and their 2-year-old children in a longitudinal, multimethod design. Addressing the form of the interplay between interparental aggression and maternal antisocial personality as risk factors for concurrent and prospective levels of child disruptive problems, the Study 1 findings indicated that maternal antisocial personality was a predictor of the initial levels of preschooler's disruptive problems independent of the effects of interparental violence, comorbid forms of maternal psychopathology, and socioeconomic factors. In attesting to the salience of interparental aggression in the lives of young children, latent difference score analyses further revealed that interparental aggression mediated the link between maternal antisocial personality and subsequent changes in child disruptive problems over a 1-year period. To identify the family mechanisms that account for the two forms of intergenerational transmission of disruptive problems identified in Study 1, Study 2 explored the role of children's difficult temperament, emotional reactivity to interparental conflict, adrenocortical reactivity in a challenging parent child task, and experiences with maternal parenting as mediating processes. Analyses identified child emotional reactivity to conflict and maternal unresponsiveness as mediators in pathways between interparental aggression and preschooler's disruptive problems. The findings further supported the role of blunted adrenocortical reactivity as an allostatic mediator of the associations between parental unresponsiveness and child disruptive problems.
