Observed parent-adolescent autonomy struggles were assessed as potential predictors of the development of peer-rated hostility over a decade later in young adulthood in both normal and previously psychiatrically hospitalized groups of adolescents. Longitudinal, multireporter data were obtained by coding family interactions involving 83 adolescents and their parents at age 16 years and then obtaining ratings by close friends of adolescents' hostility at age 25 years. Fathers' behavior undermining adolescents' autonomy in interactions at age 16 years were predictive of adolescents-as-young-adults' hostility, as rated by close friends at age 25 years. These predictions contributed additional variance to understanding young adult hostility even after accounting for concurrent levels of adolescent hostility at age 16 years and paternal hostility at this age, each of which also significantly contributed to predicting future hostility. Results are discussed as highlighting a pathway by which difficulties attaining autonomy in adolescence may presage the development of long-term difficulties in social functioning.
在正常青少年组和曾有精神科住院史的青少年组中，观察到的亲子自主冲突被评估为十年后青少年成年早期同伴评定敌意发展的潜在预测因素。通过对涉及83名青少年及其父母在16岁时的家庭互动进行编码，并在他们25岁时由亲密朋友对青少年的敌意进行评定，从而获得纵向、多报告者数据。父亲在16岁互动中破坏青少年自主性的行为能够预测青少年成年后的敌意，这是由25岁时亲密朋友评定的。即使在考虑了16岁时青少年敌意的同期水平以及该年龄父亲的敌意水平之后，这些预测对理解成年早期敌意仍有额外的方差贡献，其中每一项也都对预测未来敌意有显著贡献。研究结果被认为突出了一条路径，即青春期获得自主性方面的困难可能预示着社会功能长期困难的发展。
