本研究考察了172名11 - 19岁青少年人际协商社会认知能力的发展与父母风险和父母责任结果变量之间的关系。样本被分为两组：一组是父母一方或双方有情感障碍的风险，另一组是父母从未经历过情感疾病的对照组。青少年的人际协商策略（INS）水平与父母情感疾病的持续时间呈负相关（以及相关的较低的社会经济地位和婚姻不和）。即使在控制了年龄、性别、智力、青少年诊断数量和父母风险因素后，INS水平仍能显著预测青少年的适应性社会功能（AFR）。在风险组中发现了两种额外的模式：高AFR和高INS的青少年，以及尽管INS高但功能紊乱的青少年。这些发现与一个风险模型一致，在该模型中，社会认知能力在父母障碍和适应性儿童行为之间起中介作用，他们还建议，用关系能力的发展衡量标准来评估处于危险中的儿童，诊断和行为结果测量。
This study examines the relation between the developmental social-cognitive capacity for interpersonal negotiation and both parental-risk and adolescent-outcome variables in 172 adolescents 11 to 19 years of age. The sampe was divided into two groups: those at risk because of affective disorder in one or both of their parents and a comparison group whose parents have never experienced affective illness. Adolescents'' interpersonal negotation strategy (INS) levels were negatively associated with the duration of parental affective illness (and with associated lower socioeconomic status and marital discord). INS level significantly predicted adolescents'' adaptive social functioning (AFR) even after controlling for age, sex, intelligence, number of adolescent diagnoses, and parental-risk factors. Two additional patterns were found in the risk group: adolescents with both high AFR and high INS, and adolescents who have disturbed functioning despite high INS. These findings are consistent with a risk model in which social-cognitive capacity mediates between parental disorder and adaptive child behavior, and they suggest the importance of assessing children at risk with a developmental measure of relational capacity to complement the more traditional diagnostic and behavioral outcome measures.
