Previous research has emphasized the role of parent-child relationships (PCRs) in child and adolescent development. The present study extends the previous findings by examining the direct and mediated relationship between PCRs, executive functioning (EF), and adolescent aggression. Five hundred twelve adolescents of South Asian ethnic background, enrolled at the secondary and higher secondary levels (aged 13-19 years; 50% boys), participated in the study. The Parent-Child Relationship Scale (Rao, 2000), Aggression Scale (Mathur & Bhatnagar, 2004), and four tests from the Delis-Kaplan Executive Function System (Delis, Kaplan, & Kramer, 2001) were administered to measure the perceived quality of PCR, level of aggression, and EF, respectively, in participants. Pearson correlation coefficients revealed that perceived PCRs were related to EF and adolescent aggression among South Asian youth. Furthermore, multiple regression analyses using Baron and Kenny's (1986) guidelines showed that the influence of PCRs on aggression was partially mediated by EF The findings suggest that PCRs and EF can be important factors to focus on in interventions aimed at preventing adolescent aggression in society.

由亲子关系和执行功能预测的青少年侵略。

先前的研究强调了亲子关系（PCR）在儿童和青少年发育中的作用。本研究通过检查PCR，执行功能（EF）和青少年攻击之间的直接和中介关系，扩展了先前的发现。参加中学和中学以上课程（年龄13-19岁；男生50％）的512名青少年。进行了亲子关系量表（Rao，2000年），攻击量表（Mathur和Bhatnagar，2004年）和Delis-Kaplan执行功能系统的四项测试（Delis，Kaplan和Kramer，2001年），以衡量感知质量参与者的PCR，攻击水平和EF的差异。皮尔逊相关系数表明，感知的PCR与南亚青年中的EF和青少年侵略性有关。此外，使用Baron和Kenny's（1986）指南进行的多元回归分析表明，PCR对侵略性的影响部分由EF介导。研究结果表明，PCR和EF可能是关注预防社会青少年侵害的干预措施中的重要因素。
