We investigated the influence of effective parenting behaviors (father and mother reports) and deviant peer association (adolescent reports) on subsequent young adolescent conduct problems (teacher reports) during grades 7-9, using structural equation modeling. Data were from a sample of 226 rural adolescents (n = 112 boys; n = 107 girls; n = 7 gender unknown), their parents, and teachers. Both effective parenting and association with deviant peers influenced later conduct problems; however, the pattern of influence varied across time and between fathers and mothers, with complex patterns of interactions between effective parenting and peer deviance. From seventh to eighth grade, effective parenting by both mothers and fathers buffered the effect of higher levels of peer deviance on conduct problems across adolescent gender. From eighth to ninth grade (i.e., transition into high school), fathers' effective parenting buffered the effects of deviant peer association on their daughters' conduct problems, whereas both fathers' and mothers' influence was stronger for sons when deviant peer associations were lower. Analyses also evaluated bi-directional longitudinal effects among adolescents, parents, and peers. Although varying by parent and adolescent gender or adolescent age, results generally supported the protective effects of parenting on their children's conduct problems during early to mid adolescence.
我们使用结构方程模型研究了有效育儿行为(父母报告)和偏差同伴关系(青少年报告)对 7-9 年级后续青少年行为问题(教师报告)的影响。数据来自 226 名农村青少年(n=112 名男孩;n=107 名女孩;n=7 名性别不详)、他们的父母和老师的样本。有效的育儿和与偏差同伴的关系都影响了后来的行为问题;然而,影响的模式随时间和父母的不同而变化,有效育儿和同伴偏差之间存在复杂的相互作用模式。从七年级到八年级,母亲和父亲的有效育儿都缓冲了较高水平的同伴偏差对青少年性别行为问题的影响。从八年级到九年级(即进入高中),父亲的有效育儿缓冲了偏差同伴关系对其女儿行为问题的影响,而当偏差同伴关系较低时,父亲和母亲的影响对儿子更强。分析还评估了青少年、父母和同伴之间的双向纵向影响。虽然因父母和青少年的性别或青少年的年龄而异,但结果普遍支持父母在青少年早期和中期对孩子行为问题的保护作用。
