ABSTRACT Four hundred and seventy-nine undergraduates reported on family discussions about the 2016 election that occurred over that same year’s Thanksgiving break. Family Communication Patterns Theory was used to predict the perceived outcomes of such discussion on family members. Higher conversation orientation predicted a more positive perceived effect of political talk on family closeness. Perceived similarity of political views partially moderated the relationship between conformity orientation and perceived effect of political talk on family closeness. Reported stress levels since the election were negatively predicted by the perceived (positive) effect of political talk on family closeness. Practical and theoretical implications for families and political socialization processes are discussed.

会谈土耳其：家庭讨论对2016年感恩节大选的影响

摘要479名本科生报道了同年感恩节期间发生的有关2016年选举的家庭讨论。家庭沟通模式理论被用来预测这种关于家庭成员的讨论的感知结果。较高的对话倾向预示了政治对话对家庭亲密感的积极影响。政治观点的感知相似性部分缓解了整合倾向和政治谈话对家庭亲密感的影响之间的关系。政治演讲对家庭亲密感的感知（正面）影响，负面地预测了自大选以来报道的压力水平。讨论了对家庭和政治社会化进程的实践和理论意义。
