We evaluated the effects of marital dissatisfaction on adolescent-perceived conflict in 435 families with and without a parental history of alcoholism. On average, family conflict decreased linearly as adolescents aged. Families with an alcoholic parent demonstrated higher adolescent-reported family conflict and this effect was partially mediated by higher mother- and father-reported marital dissatisfaction. Families with higher marital dissatisfaction had greater conflict when adolescents were young (based on fathers' marital dissatisfaction) and as they aged (based on mother's marital dissatisfaction). Years in which mothers reported higher marital dissatisfaction than usual coincided with years in which adolescents reported greater family conflict. Results indicate that marital dissatisfaction has both within and between-family effects on adolescent perceptions of conflict.
我们评估了婚姻不满意度对 435 个有和没有酗酒父母家族史的家庭中青少年感知冲突的影响。平均而言，家庭冲突随着青少年年龄的增长呈线性下降。有酗酒父母的家庭中，青少年报告的家庭冲突更高，这种影响部分是由父母报告的更高的婚姻不满意度介导的。婚姻不满意度较高的家庭，青少年年轻时（基于父亲的婚姻不满意度）和年龄较大时（基于母亲的婚姻不满意度）的冲突更大。母亲报告的婚姻不满意度高于平常的年份与青少年报告的家庭冲突较大的年份相吻合。研究结果表明，婚姻不满意度对青少年对冲突的感知既有家庭内的影响，也有家庭间的影响。
