abstract="The present study examined the developmental value of parsing different forms of children's risky involvement in interparental conflict as predictors of children's  subsequent psychological adjustment. Participants included a diverse sample of 243  preschool children (Mage = 4.6 years) and their mothers across two measurement  occasions spaced 2 years apart. Three forms of risky involvement (i.e., cautious,  caregiving, and coercive) were identified using maternal narratives describing  children's emotional and behavioral reactivity during and immediately following  interparental conflict. Utilizing a multimethod, multi-informant design, findings  revealed that each form of involvement prospectively predicted unique configurations  of children's developmental outcomes. Greater coercive involvement was associated  with higher levels of externalizing problems, callous and unemotional traits, and  extraversion. Higher levels of caregiving involvement were linked with greater  separation anxiety. Finally, cautious involvement predicted more separation anxiety  and social withdrawal.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
