Abstract

Parent-child interactions, which substantially impact children’s psychosocial functioning, can be affected by caregiver adversity exposure. Considering that caregivers and their children often have divergent perspectives on their interactions, the current study included maternal- and child-reports of parenting practices and parent-child communication as indicators in a latent profile analysis. This study included 263 dyads comprised of children aged 8–17 (MAge = 12.13, SD = 2.77; 88.2% Black) and their female caregivers (MAge = 36.43, SD = 7.89; 82.9% Black) who were recruited based on caregivers’ differing experiences with the SAVA syndemic (i.e., potentially harmful substance use, intimate partner violence (IPV), HIV, or none of these adversities). After identifying empirically-derived profiles of maternal-child interactions, we examined associations between these established profiles and children’s external resilience resources. A three-class model emerged as the best fit: Concordant: Child/Mother Positive (C-PP; 73.4%), Discordant: Child Very Negative/Mother Slightly Negative (D-CN; 13.1%), and Discordant: Child Positive/Mother Negative (D-CP; 11.8%). Caregiver endorsement of SAVA syndemics did not predict class membership. Dyads with older children were more likely to be in the D-CN class, and dyads reporting lower SES were more likely to be in the D-CP class. Compared to children in the D-CN class, children in the C-PP class reported significantly higher resilience in school (Est. = −0.42, p = 0.006), community (Est. = −0.51, p = 0.001), and peer (Est. = −0.37, p = 0.004) contexts. No other class differences emerged. Findings highlight the importance of positive and consistent maternal-child interactions, which may help youth access a network of resilience resources that can promote healthy development and bolster well-being.

For consistency with the acronym, the term "substance abuse" is used here. This term is stigmatizing and potentially harmful (see Saitz et al., 2021). When referring to substance use elsewhere in the manuscript, we have chosen to use terminology that is more descriptive and accurate (e.g., "potentially harmful substance use").
