Exposure to intimate partner violence (IPV) in the family context has detrimental effects for children’s physical health and psychological adjustment. The current study examined the direct links between IPV and children’s externalizing and internalizing behavior problems and the indirect effect of coparenting quality as reported by a sample of 79 (80% African American, 11% Latina, and 9% Multiracial/Other), low-income mothers of children aged 2–12 years, the majority of whom were not in a romantic relationship (61%) or cohabitating with their child’s biological father (64%). Results indicated that IPV history was directly associated with higher rates of internalizing behaviors, but not with externalizing behaviors. Coparenting quality mediated the association between IPV and child externalizing and internalizing behaviors, when controlling for parent relationship status, such that IPV history was associated with lower levels of coparenting quality, which was associated with higher rates of child behavior problems. Findings highlight the importance of culturally appropriate self-report measures of coparenting and implications of IPV in racially and ethnically diverse low-income families on child adjustment.

共同抚养质量在低收入、种族和少数民族家庭中调解亲密伴侣暴力与儿童行为问题之间的关联

在家庭环境中接触亲密伴侣暴力 (IPV) 会对儿童的身体健康和心理调整产生不利影响。目前的研究调查了 IPV 与儿童外化和内化行为问题之间的直接联系以及共同养育质量的间接影响,这些样本由 79 名(80% 非裔美国人、11% 拉丁裔美国人和 9% 多种族/其他人)、低- 2-12 岁儿童的收入母亲,其中大多数没有恋爱关系 (61%) 或与孩子的生父同居 (64%)。结果表明,IPV 历史与较高的内化行为率直接相关,但与外化行为无关。共同养育质量介导了 IPV 与儿童外化和内化行为之间的关联,当控制父母关系状态时,IPV 历史与较低水平的共同养育质量相关,这与较高的儿童行为问题相关。调查结果强调了文化上适当的自我报告措施的重要性,以及 IPV 在种族和民族多样化的低收入家庭中对儿童适应的影响。
