Sibling Relationships in Rural African American Families.
Brody, Gene H.; Stoneman, Zolinda; Smith, Trellis; Gibson, Nicole Morgan
Journal of Marriage and the Family, v61 n4 p1046-57 Nov 1999
A family process model was used to link mothers' and fathers' psychological functioning to sibling relationship quality in a sample of 9- to 12-year-old African American youth (N=85) living in the rural Southeastern United States. Better parental psychological functioning was linked to more supportive relationships in the family, and youth in these families experienced more harmonious sibling relationships. (Author/JDM)
