METHODS: We interviewed 311 adolescents at two time points (females = 52%, ages 15 and 17) in eight countries (China, Colombia, Italy, Kenya, the Philippines, Sweden, Thailand, and the United States). Generalized and linear mixed models were run considering the participants\' nesting within countries.
RESULTS: Adolescents with negative conflicts with their parents reported low romantic relationship quality and satisfaction and high conflicts with their romantic partners. Adolescents experiencing an anxious attachment to their parents reported low romantic relationship quality, while adolescents with positive parenting showed high romantic relationship satisfaction. However, no association between parent-adolescent relationships and conflict management skills involving reasoning with the partner was found. No associations of parent-adolescent communication with romantic relationship dimensions emerged, nor was there any effect of the country on romantic relationship quality or satisfaction.
CONCLUSIONS: These results stress the relevance of parent-adolescent conflicts and attachment as factors connected to how adolescents experience romantic relationships.
方法:我们在两个时间点采访了311名青少年(女性=52%,年龄15岁和17岁)在八个国家(中国,哥伦比亚,意大利,肯尼亚,菲律宾,瑞典,泰国,和美国)。考虑到参与者在国家内部的嵌套,运行了广义和线性混合模型。
结果:与父母发生负面冲突的青少年报告说,他们的浪漫关系质量和满意度较低,与浪漫伴侣的冲突程度较高。青少年对父母的焦虑依恋报告说浪漫关系质量很低,而积极育儿的青少年表现出较高的浪漫关系满意度。然而,未发现父母-青少年关系与涉及与伴侣推理的冲突管理技能之间存在关联.没有出现父母与青少年沟通与浪漫关系维度的关联,这个国家对浪漫关系的质量或满意度也没有任何影响。
结论:这些结果强调了父母与青少年冲突和依恋的相关性,这些因素与青少年如何体验浪漫关系有关。
