Family communication patterns (FCP) are relational schema theorized to influence behaviors indirectly via cognitive processes, including perceived norms. However, relatively little is known about the indirect effect of FCP on health self-disclosure via perceived norms. We examine FCP's associations with young adults' health self-disclosure to their parents, assessing the theory of normative social behavior and the integrative model of behavioral prediction. Young adults ( = 504) completed a cross-sectional survey. Mediation analysis showed the effect of conversation orientation on health self-disclosure via communication efficacy and descriptive norms. Injunctive norms moderated the indirect effect of descriptive norms on self-disclosure. Results suggest conversation, but not conformity orientation, influenced young adults' self-disclosure, while norms and efficacy act as predominant drivers of disclosure behavior.
家庭沟通模式（FCP）是一种关系模式，理论上它会通过认知过程（包括感知规范）间接影响行为。然而，关于FCP通过感知规范对健康自我表露的间接影响，我们了解得相对较少。我们研究FCP与年轻人向父母进行健康自我表露之间的关联，评估规范社会行为理论和行为预测的整合模型。504名年轻人完成了一项横断面调查。中介分析表明，对话导向通过沟通效能感和描述性规范对健康自我表露产生影响。指令性规范调节了描述性规范对自我表露的间接影响。结果表明，对话导向而非一致性导向影响了年轻人的自我表露，而规范和效能感是表露行为的主要驱动因素。
