Conflict between parents and adolescents involves reciprocal exchanges in which family members influence and shape each other's behavior. This study uses multilevel path analysis to examine interrelations in observed behavior during 15-min conflict discussions conducted by 103 family triads, looking specifically at parent coercive and youth avoidant behaviors. We also explore the moderating roles of parents' past aggressive family conflict behavior on parents' responses to youth behavior. Discussions were coded in 3-min segments. Analyses used time-lagged codes so that a family member's behavior in 1 segment predicted another family member's behavior in the following segment. The fully saturated cross-lagged model tested all possible paths (parents' behavior predicting parents' and youths' subsequent behavior, and vice versa). Parents' coercive behavior was associated with more avoidant youth behavior in the following segment when controlling for youths' prior avoidant behavior. The opposite direction of effects also emerged: Mothers became more coercive when youth were more avoidant in a prior segment. Fathers' coercive behavior was not associated with youths' prior behavior and, with both parents in the same model, father and youth behavior were no longer associated; however, fathers' coercive behavior predicted more mother coercive behavior in the following segment. Mothers who had behaved more aggressively during family conflict over 2 waves of data collection became more coercive when youths were more avoidant, although parents' history of aggressive family conflict behavior did not moderate father-to-youth or youth-to-parent paths.

父母与青少年之间的冲突涉及相互交流,在这种交流中,家庭成员相互影响和塑造彼此的行为。本研究使用多层次路径分析来检查在103家庭三合会进行的15分钟冲突讨论中观察到的行为之间的相互关系,专门研究父母的强迫行为和青年回避行为。我们还探讨了父母过去的侵略性家庭冲突行为对父母对青年行为的反应的调节作用。讨论以3分钟的片段编码。分析使用了时滞代码,以便一个家庭成员在1个片段中的行为预测下一个片段中的另一个家庭成员的行为。完全饱和的交叉滞后模型测试了所有可能的路径 (父母的行为预测父母和年轻人的后续行为,反之亦然)。在控制青少年先前的回避行为时,以下部分中父母的强迫行为与更多的回避青年行为有关。效果的相反方向也出现了: 当年轻人在前一段时间里更回避时,母亲变得更有强制性。父亲的强迫行为与年轻人的先前行为无关,并且在同一模型中,父母双方的父亲和青年行为不再相关; 但是,父亲的强迫行为在以下部分中预测了更多的母亲强迫行为。尽管父母的侵略性家庭冲突行为的历史并未缓和父亲对青年或青年对父母的路径,但在两波数据收集过程中,在年轻人更回避时,在家庭冲突中表现得更加积极的母亲变得更具强制性。
