The Relationship between Interparental Conflict and Self-Reported Grade Point Average among College Students
Hunt, S. Jane; Krueger, Lacy E.; Limberg, Dodie
Journal of College Counseling, v20 n3 p237-249 Oct 2017
Interparental conflict has been shown to have a negative effect on the academic success of children and adolescents. This study examined the relationship between college students' (N = 143) perceived levels of interparental conflict, their living arrangement, and their current self-reported grade point average. Participants who experienced more interparental conflict, specifically female students and those living away from home, reported a lower grade point average. Implications for college counselors are discussed.
