Children's Perceptions of Marital Discord and Behavior Problems of Boys and Girls.

Emery, Robert E.; O'Leary, K. Daniel

Journal of Abnormal Child Psychology, v10 n1 p11-24 Mar 1982

In 50 behavior problem children it was found that marital discord, as predicted, was most strongly related to conduct problems in boys, boys and girls perceived parental marital discord with equal and moderate accuracy, and children's feelings of nonacceptance were not significantly related to ratings of marital discord.
