Studies of positive and negative social ties usually are done in isolation of each other, precluding an understanding of their relative contributions to psychological functioning. This research evaluated the effects of adolescents' conflict with and social support from key relationships (parents, siblings, and best friends) on adolescents' self-esteem, substance use, and externalizing symptoms. Ss were 296 adolescents and their parents; 145 families had alcoholic fathers, and 151 had nonalcoholic parents. Support and conflict provided by each network member showed only a mild negative correlation. Support from parents, but not siblings or best friends, was related to adolescents' reports of substance use and externalizing. Conflict with parents was consistently related to externalizing behaviors. There was no evidence that conflict within a relationship neutralizes the effectiveness of the support it provides.
关于积极和消极社会关系的研究通常是彼此孤立进行的，这妨碍了对它们对心理功能的相对贡献的理解。本研究评估了青少年与关键关系（父母、兄弟姐妹和最好的朋友）之间的冲突以及来自这些关系的社会支持对青少年自尊、物质使用和外化症状的影响。研究对象为296名青少年及其父母；145个家庭的父亲酗酒，151个家庭的父母不酗酒。每个网络成员提供的支持和冲突仅显示出轻微的负相关。来自父母的支持，而非兄弟姐妹或最好的朋友的支持，与青少年的物质使用报告和外化行为有关。与父母的冲突始终与外化行为有关。没有证据表明关系中的冲突会抵消其所提供支持的有效性。
