Caregiver Separation and Behavioral Problems Among Impoverished Adolescents: Relationship Quality with Parents and Peers as Mediators

Abstract

The current study examined the association between caregiver separation frequency and behavioral problems among 317 impoverished adolescents. We also investigated how perceptions of relationship quality with parents and peers mediated based on ecological systems theory and the cumulative risk model. More frequent caregiver separation was significantly associated with higher levels of externalizing problems but was not associated with internalizing problems. However, parental separation and internalizing problems were fully mediated by relationship quality with parents and peers. The link between parental separation and externalizing problems was partially mediated by one’s relationship quality with parents and peers. In sum, when adolescents experienced frequent separation from parental figures, they were more likely to develop negative perceptions of their relationships with parents and peers. In turn, the negative perceptions of these significant relationships were associated with high levels of internalizing and externalizing problems.
