This study examined the effects of both paternal problem drinking and maternal problem drinking on adolescent internalizing problems (depression and anxiety symptomatology).
Surveys were administered to 566 10th and 11th grade students from the Mid-Atlantic region of the U.S. in the spring of 2007 and again in the spring of 2008.
Although significant main effects were not observed, significant interactions were found between paternal problem drinking and maternal problem drinking for internalizing problems, especially for boys. In general, these interactions indicated that when paternal problem drinking was high, depression symptomatology and anxiety symptomatology were lower if maternal problem drinking was low.
Findings from this study highlight the need to consider both paternal and maternal problem drinking when examining the effects that parental problem drinking may have on adolescent adjustment.
本研究考察了父亲酗酒和母亲酗酒对青少年内化问题(抑郁和焦虑症状)的影响。
2007年春季对来自美国大西洋中部地区的566名十年级和十一年级学生进行了调查,并于2008年春季再次进行调查。
虽然未观察到显著的主效应,但发现父亲酗酒和母亲酗酒在青少年内化问题上存在显著交互作用,尤其是对男孩而言。总体而言,这些交互作用表明,当父亲酗酒程度较高时,如果母亲酗酒程度较低,抑郁症状和焦虑症状会较低。
本研究结果凸显了在考察父母酗酒可能对青少年适应产生的影响时,需要同时考虑父亲和母亲酗酒情况。
