以538名初一至高三年级青少年为被试,采用儿童对婚姻冲突的感知量表和自尊量表考察青少年父母冲突的特征、青少年对冲突的认知评价和自尊的关系。结果表明:不同年级青少年报告的父母冲突特征没有显著差异,但其对冲突的认知评价却表现出显著的年级差异,年级越高则青少年越少感受到威胁并更少对冲突做自我归因;婚姻冲突对青少年自尊的直接影响显著,但当加入认知评价作为中介变量后,直接影响不再显著,而间接作用很显著,模型检验结果支持认知评价的中介作用。
Based on a sample of 538 Chinese adolescents from 7th to 12th grades, the present study examined associations of interparental conflict, adolescent's cognitive appraisals and self-esteem through the Children's Perception of Interparental Conflict Scale and the Self-esteem Scale. The results showed that there was no grade difference in scores of marital conflict properties, but there were significant grade differences in scores of threat and self-blame attribution; the path from marital conflict to adolescents' self- esteem was significant, but when adolescents' cognitive appraisals were included in the model, the association between marital conflict and positive affect was substantially reduced and non-significant, which demonstrated that the association was totally mediated by cognitive appraisals.
