Interparental Conflict and Family Cohesion: Predictors of Loneliness, Social Anxiety, and Social Avoidance in Late Adolescence.

Johnson, H. Durell; LaVoie, Joseph C.; Mahoney, Molly

Journal of Adolescent Research, v16 n3 p304-18 May 2001

Examined relationship of family cohesion and interparental conflict with loneliness in 124 late adolescents. Found that feelings of loneliness were related to perceived levels of interparental conflict for males and females, and to decreased family cohesion for females. Feelings of social anxiety and social avoidance were related to feelings of loneliness. (Author/KB)
