Elterliche Kompetenzen und Erziehungskonflikte

Eine ressourcenorientierte Betrachtung von familiären Negativdynamiken

Published Online:September 01, 2006https://doi.org/10.1026/0942-5403.15.1.9

Abstract

Zusammenfassung. Verschiedene Studien belegen, dass Ehekonflikte eine wichtige Rolle in der familiären Negativdynamik gerade in Familien mit verhaltensauffälligen Kindern spielen. In der vorliegenden Studie soll aufgezeigt werden, wie selbstberichtete Erziehungskonflikte mit elterlichen Kompetenzen in den Bereichen Erziehung, Partnerschaft und Stressbewältigung kovariieren. Es wurden Korrelationen, multiple Regressionsanalysen, Pfadanalysen sowie Analysen mit dem APIM-Modell bei einer Stichprobe von 96 Elternpaaren durchgeführt. Alle drei Kompetenzen kovariierten in unterschiedlichem Ausmaß mit elterlichen Erziehungskonflikten, wobei der partnerschaftlichen Stressbewältigung eine Schlüsselrolle zukam. Die Ergebnisse sprechen dafür, dass neben der Vermittlung von Erziehungskompetenzen die Förderung der partnerschaftlichen Belastungsbewältigung für die Prävention von Negativdynamiken in Familien von großem Nutzen sein könnte.


Parental competencies and conflicts related to parenting: A resource-oriented view of negative dynamics in families

Abstract. Several studies document the important role of child-related interparental conflicts for the development of a negative interpersonal dynamic in families of children with behavioral problems. This study focused on the relationship between coping with regard to parenting and stress with reported child-related marital discord. Data from 96 couples (mothers and fathers) were used to conduct correlations, multiple regressions, path analyses, and analyses based on the APIM, in order to examine the role of parental competencies such as positive parenting and individual and dyadic coping with regard to child-related marital conflicts. All three parental competencies are negatively related to parental discords, but the strongest correlations are found between dyadic coping and child-related conflicts. The results suggest that in addition to the enhancement of parenting competencies, the promotion of coping with stress in marital relationships should be strengthened in order to prevent negative dynamics in families.
