The cognitive contextual model proposes that children’s appraisals of interparental conflict (IPC) can influence their adjustment. In addition, previous research revealed that interparental disputes may reflect on parent-child relationship that is linked with children’s self-blame and threat appraisals concerning IPC. However, there is a scarcity of research directly addressing the intervening role of the parent-child relationship on children’s appraisals of IPC. Thus, we investigated the mediating role of different aspects of the parent-child relationship (i.e., psychological control, warmth, and attachment security) in the link between IPC and self-blame and threat appraisals. Participants were 1,309 children, their mothers, and their fathers. SEM analyses indicated that higher IPC was related to higher parental psychological control and lower child attachment security, which in turn was associated with higher self-blame or threat appraisals. The pattern of relationships was similar across child and parent gender.

AbstractThis study examined the longitudinal implications of adolescents' exposure to interparental conflict for their developmental success. In the proposed developmental cascade model, adolescents' perceptions of parental conflict as threatening is a risk factor for diminished self-efficacy, which would account for diminished adjustment. This study presents longitudinal data for 768 sixth-grade students and their families over four time points, ending in eighth grade. Analyses were conducted in three steps. First, replication of longitudinal support for threat as a mediator of the link between interparental conflict and emotional distress was found; however, findings did not support threat as a mediator of behavior problems or subjective well-being. Second, threat was found to mediate the longitudinal association between interparental conflict and self-efficacy. Third, a developmental cascade model supported a risk process in which interparental conflict was related to adolescents' threat appraisals, which undermined self-efficacy beliefs, and was then linked with emotional distress, behavior problems, and subjective well-being.

Zusammenfassung.Die Children’s Perception of Interparental Conflict Scale (CPIC) von Grych, Seid und Fincham (1992) ist ein in der amerikanischen Forschung inzwischen gut etabliertes Fragebogenverfahren zur Erfassung elterlicher Konflikte aus der Sicht der betroffenen Kinder. Neben eher “objektiven“ äußeren Merkmalen des Konflikts wird auch die subjektive Bewertung der Kinder hinsichtlich der Ursachen und Bedeutsamkeit der elterlichen Auseinandersetzungen erfasst. Mit der vorliegenden Arbeit wird eine Kurzversion des CPIC vorgestellt, die an einer Stichprobe von 335 Kindern und Jugendlichen getestet wurde. Die Analysen hinsichtlich Dimensionalität, Reliabilität und Validität belegen die Güte der deutschen Fassung des CPIC. Der Fragebogen weist eine dreidimensionale Struktur auf mit den gegenüber dem amerikanischen Original inhaltlich etwas abweichend akzentuierten SkalenKonfliktpersistenz, Kind als Konfliktanlass und Kind als Vermittler.
