Parental Marital Conflict And Problem Behavior Of Junior High School Students

Adolescence is a special period of individual development,and the junior high school students who have entered adolescence are increasingly confronted with various psychological and behavioral problems.With the development and the change of social forms and the improvement of economic conditions of people's families,internalizing problem and externalizing problem of teenagers gradually have become the focus of the society,parents and teachers.Internalization problems and externalization problems are the anterior-cause manifestations of various psychological and behavioral disorders,which are caused by internal factors and external environmental factors in the long-term development of children and adolescents.In a large number of studies on the factors influencing the internalization of children and adolescents,the parent-related variables in the family environment are considered to be the key factors influencing the behavior of children and adolescents.At the same time,adolescence is also a period of rapid changes in friendship and attachment behavior.Previous studies have also confirmed that there is a significant negative predictive relationship between parental marital conflict and adolescent attachment development,and the level of attachment has a direct impact on adolescents' internalization behavior.Therefore,based on the theoretical system of family,attachment and social needs,this study intends to further explore the chain mediating effect of parent-child attachment and peer attachment between marital conflict and adolescents' internalized problem behaviors and externalized problem behaviors.Above all,on the basis of previous studies,this study explains the parents' marital conflict,parental and peer attachment,related concepts,problem behavior and measurement methods,and selection in Gansu and Shaanxi,936 junior high school subjects(aged 12 to 15,M=14.22),and complete the "adolescent self-rating scale","marital conflict scale(CPIC),the adolescent attachment questionnaire(IPPA),respectively,for the first to the third grade's student survey,reveal the parents' marital conflict,parent-child attachment,peer attachment and general characteristics of internalizing problem behaviors in junior high school students,To explore the relationship between parental marital conflict,parent-child attachment and peer attachment and junior high school students' internalizing behavior,and to test the chain mediating effect of parent-child attachment and peer attachment in the process of influencing parental marital conflict on junior high school students' internalizing behavior.The results of the study found that:1.The scores of externalized problem behaviors of boys in junior middle school are higher than those of girls,with a significant difference;on the contrary,the scores of internalized problem behaviors of girls in junior middle school are higher than those of boys,with a significant difference.In addition,there are significant grade differences in the internalization and externalization of junior high school students.Among them,the scores of internalization and externalization behavior problems of the students in grade two were the highest,which were significantly higher than those in grade one and grade three.The third-grade students had the most anxiety problems and body complaints.2.The parental marital conflict is negatively correlated with parent-child attachment and peer attachment,and positively correlated with internalization and externalization.Parent-child attachment and peer attachment were negatively correlated with internalization and externalization,parent-child attachment and peer attachment were positively correlated.3.Parental marital conflict could significantly positively predict the internalized behavior and externalized behavior of junior high school students(?-0.61,p<0.001),and negatively predict the parent-child attachment of junior high school students(?=-0.42?p<0.001)and peer attachment(?=-0.43,p<0.001).The levels of parent-child attachment and peer attachment in junior high school students can significantly and negatively predict the internalization behavior of junior high school students(?=-0.04,p<0.01).?=0.24,p<0.001)and externalizing problem behaviors(?=0.15,?= 0.38,p<0.001).4.Parent-child attachment and peer attachment form an intermediary chain,which plays a mediate roles in parental marital conflict,internalization behavior and externalization behavior of junior high school students(i.e.,parental marital conflict-----parent-child attachment-----peer attachment-----internalization of junior high school students),The mediating effects of parental marital conflict----parent-child attachment peer attachment-----externalization of junior high school students were 0.12 and 0.23 respectively.In addition to directly affecting the internalization behavior of junior high school students,parental marital conflict will also indirectly affect the internalization problem through the development level of parent-child attachment and peer attachment.Peer attachment plays an irreplaceable role in the healthy growth of junior high school students.
