Parents of 50 4th grade girls reported on their marital relationships and then, two years later, rated their daughters' pubertal development. Fathers' ratings of marital dissatisfaction, mothers' ratings of less emotional support from husbands, and both parents' ratings of aversive marital conflict were correlated with more advanced pubertal development in daughters. Fathers' withdrawal behavior during marital conflict emerged as the strongest predictor. These results are consistent with evolutionary theories of pubertal development and suggest that parents' impressions of the marital relationship may be linked with girls' pubertal development, even in a middle-class sample with both parents present in the household. They also suggest several heretofore underexplored foci for researchers in this area, such as parents' behaviors during marital conflict and fathers' experiences of the marital relationship.
50名四年级女生的家长汇报了他们的婚姻关系，两年后，又对女儿们的青春期发育情况进行了评分。父亲对婚姻不满的评分、母亲对丈夫情感支持较少的评分，以及父母双方对厌恶型婚姻冲突的评分，都与女儿更提前的青春期发育相关。婚姻冲突期间父亲的回避行为成为最强的预测因素。这些结果与青春期发育的进化理论一致，表明即使在父母都在家的中产阶级样本中，父母对婚姻关系的看法也可能与女孩的青春期发育有关。它们还为该领域的研究人员提出了几个此前未充分探索的重点，比如婚姻冲突期间父母的行为以及父亲对婚姻关系的体验。
