Parent-Adolescent Communication and the Circumplex Model.
Barnes, Howard L.; Olson, David H.
Child Development, v56 n2 p438-47 Apr 1985
Used fathers, mothers, and adolescents from 426 "normal" families in a study of the Circumplex Model of Marital and Family Systems. Results indicated generational differences between how communication was perceived, but findings at the family level indicated a linear relationship between parent-adolescent communication and cohesion and adaptability and family satisfaction.
