Abstract

This study examines how interparental conflict affects offspring's future marital satisfaction, with a focus on the mediating role of communication patterns. A total of 364 married couples participated, using self-report questionnaires and instruments, including the Parental Conflict Intensity/Frequency Scale (PIC-I/F), Spousal Satisfaction Index (CSI-16), and Communication Patterns Questionnaire (CPQ-SF). The results showed that communication patterns did not mediate the relationship between interparental conflict and marital satisfaction. Instead, perceived interparental conflict directly predicted marital satisfaction. These findings highlight the importance of reframing individuals’ perceptions of past parental conflict, rather than just focusing on improving communication skills, to achieve greater marital satisfaction. The study offers valuable insights for family researchers and mental health practitioners in Indonesia, suggesting intervention approaches or therapies to support married individuals from high-conflict families in improving their marital satisfaction.

Abstract

This study examined the association between maternal perceived stress and positive mother-child communication in early childhood. Although communication is central to children’s socioemotional development, less is known about how maternal stress is related to specific dimensions of communication in non-Western caregiving contexts. Using a quantitative cross-sectional design, this study involved 229 Indonesian mothers of children aged 0 to 8 years. Maternal perceived stress was measured using the Perceived Stress Scale, while mother-child communication quality was assessed using an adapted version of the Parent-Child Communication Quality Scale, which includes four dimensions: empathy, mirroring, idealization, and appropriate response. Data were analyzed using a series of linear regression models. The results showed that maternal perceived stress was significantly and negatively associated with overall mother-child communication quality. Separate regression analyses further indicated significant negative associations between perceived stress and all four communication dimensions. Empathy showed the strongest negative association, followed by mirroring, idealization, and appropriate response. These findings suggest that communication processes requiring stronger emotional attunement and perspective-taking may be more closely linked to maternal stress than more routinized behavioral responses. This study contributes to global parenting and early childhood literature by offering evidence from an Indonesian context and by showing the value of examining mother-child communication as a multidimensional construct. However, the cross-sectional design and reliance on self-report measures limit causal interpretation. Future research should employ longitudinal and multi-method approaches, including observational assessment, to examine how maternal stress, emotion regulation, and contextual family factors shape mother-child communication across diverse cultural settings.

Abstract

This study examined a family-based developmental pathway linking childhood parental rejection to moral disengagement in emerging adulthood, with Psychopathy and Sadism conceptualized as mediating personality adaptations. Using a cross-sectional design, data were collected from 603 emerging adults (M = 24.98, SD = 3.17, range = 18–29) through online self-report measures. Path analysis was conducted to test the proposed mediation model. Results indicated that parental rejection was indirectly associated with higher moral disengagement through elevated Psychopathy and Sadism traits, whereas the direct effect was not significant. These findings suggest that early relational adversity within the family may become internalized as relatively stable interpersonal orientations shaping moral self-regulation in emerging adulthood. By situating dark personality traits within a developmental framework, this study underscores how disruptions in early parent–child relationships may have enduring implications for moral cognition and the quality of relational functioning over time and across contexts.
