Adolescents' antisocial behavior and negative conflict management styles are each associated with adverse romantic relationship outcomes, yet little research exists on their associations. We investigated whether adolescents' antisocial behavior was associated with conflict management styles, and whether it predicted breakup 3 months later. In total, 91 adolescent couples (M_age = 16.43, SD = 0.99; 41.2% Hispanic/Latinx) participated in videotaped conflict discussions coded for negotiation, coercion, and avoidance. Actor–partner interdependence models suggest adolescents' antisocial behavior is associated with decreased use of negotiation (couple pattern) and increased use of coercion (actor pattern). No significant associations were found for avoidance. Neither antisocial behavior nor conflict management styles predicted breakup. Findings are discussed in light of the unique developmental importance of adolescents' romantic relationships.

青少年反社会行为、冲突管理方式和恋爱关系破裂之间的关联：一项观察性研究

青少年的反社会行为和消极的冲突管理方式都与不良的恋爱关系结果有关，但对它们的关联研究很少。我们调查了青少年的反社会行为是否与冲突管理方式相关，以及它是否预示着 3 个月后的分手。总共有 91 对青春期夫妇（M_年龄 =  16.43，SD = 0.99; 41.2% 的西班牙裔/拉丁裔）参与了编码为谈判、胁迫和回避的冲突讨论录像。演员-伙伴相互依赖模型表明，青少年的反社会行为与减少使用谈判（夫妻模式）和增加使用胁迫（演员模式）有关。没有发现与回避有显着关联。反社会行为和冲突管理方式都不能预测分手。根据青少年恋爱关系对发展的独特重要性讨论了调查结果。
