Linkage Between Parent-Child Relationships and Children's Peer Relationships: Cognitive Representational Models as Mediator

This study examined the links among parents' interaction styles, their children's representational models of parents and peers, and children's peer acceptance and friendship quality. Forty-seven fourth grade children and their parents (47 mothers and 47 fathers) were observed during discussion interaction, and, one year later, 119 children (63 boys, 56 girls), including the original sample, were interviewed to assess representational models and peer competence. Parents' interaction styles predicted children's representations of parents, moderating the effect of each parent's style, children's representations of peers mediated the relations between the representational models of mothers and their peer acceptance.
