The Importance of Shared Environmental Influences in Explaining the Overlap between Mother's Parenting and Sibling Relationships: Reply to Neale (1999).

Neiderhiser, Jenae M.; And Others

Developmental Psychology, v35 n5 p1265-67 Sep 1999

Addresses concerns raised in Neale's commentary regarding the Bussell et al. (1999) Nonshared Environment in Adolescent Development study. Discussion of assumptions focuses on those most relevant to study sample. Because Neale's proposed alternative models did not provide a better fit, the appropriateness of Bussell's model and importance of shared environmental influences for explaining association among family subsystems are supported.
