It is unclear how autonomy-related parenting processes are associated with Latinx adolescent adjustment. This study uses Latent Profile Analysis to identify typologies of parental monitoring and parent-adolescent conflict and examines their association with Latinx youth's school performance and depressive symptoms. The sample included 248 Latinx 9th and 10th graders (50% female) who completed surveys during fall (Time 1) and spring (Time 2) semesters of the school year. When compared to a high monitoring/low conflict parenting profile, a moderate monitoring/moderate conflict profile was associated with stronger declines in school performance; for boys, a high monitoring/moderately high conflict profile also was associated with greater increases in depressive symptoms. For Latinx immigrant families, researchers should consider monitoring and conflict as co-occurring processes.
目前尚不清楚与自主性相关的养育过程如何与拉丁裔青少年的适应情况相关。本研究使用潜在剖面分析来确定父母监控和父母-青少年冲突的类型,并研究它们与拉丁裔青少年的学业成绩和抑郁症状的关系。该样本包括 248 名拉丁裔 9 年级和 10 年级学生(50%为女性),他们在学年的秋季(第 1 时间点)和春季(第 2 时间点)完成了调查。与高监控/低冲突养育模式相比,适度监控/适度冲突模式与学业成绩的下降幅度更大相关;对于男孩来说,高监控/中度高冲突模式也与抑郁症状的增加幅度更大相关。对于拉丁裔移民家庭,研究人员应将监控和冲突视为同时发生的过程。
