Children exhibiting the highest level of secure representations of the family experienced a consistency between low levels of family discord and communications emphasizing family security.

Interpretable conflict and adolescent adjustment: why does gender moderate early adolescent vulnerability?

Article Abstract:

The role of child gender in the relationship between interparental conflict and adolescent psychological symptoms was examined in a sample of 924 children 10 to 15 years old and 172 of their mothers. The analyses of the examination indicated that girls' tendencies to experience elevated levels of communion partly accounted for their greater vulnerability to interparental conflict.
