Marital Behavior, Parenting Behavior, and Multiple Reports of Preschoolers' Behavior Problems: Mediation or Moderation?
Frosch, Cynthia A.; Mangelsdorf, Sarah C.
Developmental Psychology, v37 n4 p502-19 Jul 2001
Examined associations among positive and conflictual marital behavior and multiple reports of child behavior problems in a community sample of 78 families with 3-year-old children. Found that less positive marital engagement and greater conflict were associated with observers' reports--but not with parents' or teachers' reports--of more behavior problems. Parenting behavior moderated the relationship between marital behavior and child behavior problems. (Author/KB)
