Using a sample of 279 (52% female) Latino youth in 9th grade (M = 14.57, SD = .56), we examined profiles of family cohesion and parenting practices and their relation to youth adjustment. The results of latent profile analyses revealed four family profiles: Engaged, Supportive, Intrusive, and Disengaged. Latino youth in the Supportive family profile showed most positive adjustment (highest self-esteem and lowest depressive symptoms), followed by youth in the Engaged family profile. Youth in the Intrusive and Disengaged profiles showed the lowest levels of positive adjustment. The findings contribute to the current literature on family dynamics, family profiles, and youth psychological adjustment within specific ethnic groups.
本研究使用了一个由 279 名(52%为女性)9 年级拉丁裔青少年组成的样本(M=14.57,SD=.56),考察了家庭凝聚力和养育实践的模式及其与青少年适应的关系。潜在剖面分析的结果揭示了四种家庭模式:投入型、支持型、过度介入型和 disengaged( disengaged 在此处可以理解为“不参与的”)型。支持型家庭模式中的拉丁裔青少年表现出最积极的适应(最高的自尊和最低的抑郁症状),其次是投入型家庭模式中的青少年。过度介入型和不参与型家庭模式中的青少年表现出最低水平的积极适应。这些发现为当前关于家庭动态、家庭模式以及特定族裔群体中青少年心理适应的文献做出了贡献。
