This study examined whether childhood interparental conflict moderated the mediational pathway involving adolescent exposure to interparental conflict, their negative emotional reactivity to family conflict, and their psychological problems in a sample of 235 children (M = 6 years). Significant moderated-mediation findings indicated that the mediational path among Wave 4 interparental conflict during adolescence, change in youth negative reactivity (Waves 4-5), and their psychological problems (Waves 4-6) was significant for teens who experienced low, rather than high, levels of childhood interparental conflict (Waves 1-3). Supporting the stress sensitization model, analyses showed that adolescents exposed to high interparental conflict during childhood evidenced greater increases in negative reactivity than their peers when recent parental conflicts were mild.
本研究考察了童年时期父母间冲突是否调节了青少年经历父母间冲突、对家庭冲突的负性情绪反应以及他们在 235 名儿童（M=6 岁）中的心理问题之间的中介途径。有显著调节作用的中介发现表明，青少年时期父母间冲突（第 4 波）、青少年负性反应变化（第 4 波-5 波）和他们的心理问题（第 4 波-6 波）之间的中介路径对经历低水平而不是高水平童年时期父母间冲突（第 1 波-3 波）的青少年具有显著意义。支持应激敏感模型，分析表明，与童年时期父母间冲突水平较低的青少年相比，当最近的父母冲突较温和时，经历高父母间冲突的青少年表现出更强的负性反应增加。
