TY - JOUR PY - 1993// TI - Attribution processes in mother-adolescent conflict JO - Journal of abnormal child psychology A1 - Grace, N. C. A1 - Kelley, Michelle L. A1 - McCain, A. P. SP - 199 EP - 211 VL - 21 IS - 2 N2 - Attributions reported by 115 mothers and 122 adolescents were examined as they related to family conflict. Subjects completed measures of parent-adolescent conflict (Issues Checklist, Conflict Behavior Questionnaire) and the Mother-Adolescent Attribution Questionnaire. The results revealed that parent-adolescent conflict correlated with mothers' and teenagers' negative attributions. Specifically, self-reported conflict was positively correlated with mothers' and teenagers' beliefs that one another's negative behavior was intentional, selfishly motivated, and blameworthy.
