Adolescents exposed to interparental aggression are at increased risk for developing adjustment problems. The present study explored intervening variables in these pathways in a community sample that included 266 adolescents between 12 and 16 years old (M = 13.82; 52.5% boys, 47.5% girls). A moderated mediation model examined the moderating role of adrenocortical reactivity on the meditational capacity of their emotional insecurity in this context. Information from multiple reporters and adolescents' adrenocortical response to conflict were obtained during laboratory sessions attended by mothers, fathers and their adolescent child. A direct relationship was found between marital aggression and adolescents' internalizing behavior problems. Adolescents' emotional insecurity mediated the relationship between marital aggression and adolescents' depression and anxiety. Adrenocortical reactivity moderated the pathway between emotional insecurity and adolescent adjustment. The implications for further understanding the psychological and physiological effects of adolescents' exposure to interparental aggression and violence are discussed.
遭受父母间攻击行为的青少年出现适应问题的风险会增加。本研究在一个社区样本中探究了这些路径中的中介变量，该样本包括266名12至16岁的青少年（M = 13.82；52.5%为男孩，47.5%为女孩）。一个有调节的中介模型检验了在这种情况下肾上腺皮质反应性对其情绪不安全感的中介能力的调节作用。在由母亲、父亲及其青春期孩子参加的实验室环节中，获取了来自多个报告者的信息以及青少年对冲突的肾上腺皮质反应。研究发现婚姻攻击行为与青少年的内化行为问题之间存在直接关系。青少年的情绪不安全感在婚姻攻击行为与青少年的抑郁和焦虑之间起中介作用。肾上腺皮质反应性调节了情绪不安全感与青少年适应之间的路径。本文讨论了对于进一步理解青少年遭受父母间攻击行为和暴力的心理及生理影响的意义。
