This study explored mothering and fathering as possible mediators of the relationship between parent and adolescent mental health concerns and considered the adolescents' biological sex as a potential moderator. Using structural equation modeling, the longitudinal links between parents' mental health, parental psychological control, parent-adolescent connectedness, and adolescent mental health in 500 families-including 338 fathers and 500 mothers-were explored over the course of 5 years. The mean age of the adolescents (51.8% female, 69.6% European American) at Time 1 was 13.3 years. Mothers' symptoms of anxiety directly predicted girls' depression 5 years later. This relation was not mediated by parenting behaviors. Fathers' symptoms did not directly or indirectly predict adolescent symptoms. Additionally, the relations of maternal parenting with adolescent mental health symptoms 4 years later were moderated by adolescent sex. Specifically, maternal connection was associated with decreased anxiety and depression for boys alone, whereas maternal psychological control was associated with increased anxiety and depression for girls. The father model was generally not moderated by adolescent sex. Limitations of this study include the discrepancy in the sample size of mothers and fathers; more significant findings may have emerged with a larger sample size of fathers. This study highlights the important role that adolescent sex plays in relationships surrounding parenting and mental health in the family system.

父母的心理健康,育儿和青少年的心理健康之间的纵向联系:青少年性别的节制。

这项研究探讨了父母可能是父母与青少年心理健康问题之间关系的中介者,并认为青少年的生物性别是潜在的调节者。使用结构方程模型,在5年的时间里,探索了500个家庭(包括338名父亲和500名母亲)的父母心理健康,父母心理控制,父母与青少年之间的联系以及青少年心理健康之间的纵向联系。青少年在时间1的平均年龄(女性为51.8%,欧洲裔为69.6%)为13.3岁。母亲的焦虑症状直接预示了5年后女孩的抑郁。这种关系不是由父母的行为来调节的。父亲的症状并不能直接或间接地预测青少年症状。另外,4年后,通过青春期性行为缓解了母亲育儿与青少年心理健康症状的关系。具体而言,仅男孩的母亲关系与焦虑和抑郁的减少有关,而母亲的心理控制与女孩的焦虑和抑郁的增加有关。父亲模型通常不受青春期性爱的控制。该研究的局限性包括父亲和母亲的样本量差异;更大的父亲样本数量可能会出现更重要的发现。这项研究强调了青少年性行为在家庭系统中与父母养育和心理健康有关的关系中所起的重要作用。(PsycInfo数据库记录(c)2020 APA,保留所有权利)。
