Abstract

This study tested associations between adolescent perceptions of interparental conflict, adolescent attachment security with parents, and adolescent marital expectations and romantic experiences. Participants were 96 early adolescent females from 2 parent families. Insecurity was examined as a mediator of the association between negative perceptions of parental conflict and romantic outcomes. Results supported the mediation model in which adolescents' negative perceptions of parental conflict was associated with insecure attachment with parents, which was in turn associated with negative marital expectations and romantic experiences. Implications for understanding how parent-adolescent and interparental variables influence adolescent marital expectations and romantic experiences are discussed.

We also tested an alternative mediation model with interparental conflict mediating the association between attachment security with parents and adolescent romantic outcomes, using SEM in the manner described in the results section. Results suggested that interparental conflict did not mediate the association between adolescent security and marital expectations and romantic experiences, but rather model of self and model of other retained direct associations with the romantic variables. This is not surprising given the cross-sectional nature of the data and the fact that this renders the 2 mediation models virtually identical from a statistical point of view.

It is also possible that adolescent–parent attachment security and perceptions of parental conflict interact with one another such that, whether or not they are directly related to each other, 1 of them moderates the association between the other one and the romantic outcome variables. In order to address this possibility, we tested moderation as an alternative model. Specifically, we examined whether perceived parental conflict and adolescent–parent attachment security interacted to predict the romantic outcomes. In order to examine if any of the variables served as a moderator, we first conducted individual regression analyses as suggested by Aiken and West (1991). If we had conducted these analyses in SEM, the model would be saturated, which would not allow us to test model fit. Because there were a total of 14 separate regression analyses, we conducted a Bonferroni correction and used a stricter p value of 0.004. None of the interactions were significant, indicating that neither model of self, model of other, nor perceptions of parental conflict served as a moderator (Table I).
