Abstract:

To investigate the mediating role of three types of parent-child triangulations and the moderating role of cognitive reappraisal between interparental conflict and adolescents’ depressive symptoms, this study surveyed 661 high school students with Children’s Perception of Interparental Conflict Scale (CPIC), The Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale (CES-D), Parent-child Triangulations Scale and Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (ERQ). The results showed, (1) only one type of parent-child triangulations, scapegoating, had a partial mediating effect between parental conflict and adolescents’ depressive symptoms, while the cross-generational alliance and parentification did not; (2) cognitive reappraisal had a moderating effect on the relationship between scapegoating and adolescents’ depressive symptoms. The results revealed the internal psychological mechanism of interparental conflict affecting adolescents’ depressive symptoms, which is beneficial to the intervention of depression.

Key words: adolescents’ depressive symptom, interparental conflict, parent-child triangulations, cognitive reappraisal
