The focal problem of the proposed investigation is the identification of the processes by which marital conflict is linked to child behavior problems of young boys and girls. A multimethod measurement strategy is proposed which would create a data base of synchronized video and autonomic data from families who vary in marital satisfaction. The proposed study is longitudinal; 120 families will be followed from the 5 to 7 year period of their preschool child's life. A variety of child outcomes will be assessed, including cognitive, social (peer interaction), and behavioral (parent and teacher ratings). The study is based on a theory referred to as social DPA theory; DPA refers to a construct, Diffuse Physiological Arousal. The proposed investigation seeks to contribute to two areas of the psychological literature: (1) the transfer of marital discord from the marital to the parent-child and peer systems, and (2) emotional development in preschool children. This study will employ a two-stage sampling procedure. Stage One will begin by recruiting a relatively large pool of intact families with a preschool child, and then screen for different levels of marital satisfaction. Stage Two involves a further classification of families high in marital discord into those who do and do not transfer negative affect from the marital to the parent/child interaction. The determination of whether transfer has occurred will be done using an on-line coder, who will code the amount of negative, positive and neutral affect during the marital and parent-child interaction sessions. The experimental design will be a 3 x 2 design, with one factor being Child Gender (Male, Female) and the other factor being Family Classification. Families will be classified into three groups: (1) High Marital Satisfaction, (2) Low Marital Satisfaction and No Transfer of Marital Discord to the child, and (3) Low Marital Satisfaction and Transfer of Marital Discord to the child.

拟议调查的重点问题是 识别与婚姻冲突联系的过程 到男孩和女孩的儿童行为问题。 一个 提出了多途径测量策略 创建从同步视频和自主数据的数据库中 婚姻满意度各不相同的家庭。 拟议的研究是 纵向5年至7年将遵循120个家庭 学龄前儿童的生活。 各种各样的儿童结果 将评估，包括认知，社交（同伴互动）和 行为（父母和教师评级）。 该研究基于 理论称为社会DPA理论； DPA指的是 构造，弥漫性生理唤醒。 提议 调查旨在为心理的两个领域做出贡献 文学：（1）婚姻不和谐从婚姻转移到 亲子和同伴系统，以及（2）情绪发展 在学龄前儿童中。 这项研究将采用两个阶段 采样程序。 第一阶段将首先招募 拥有学龄前儿童的完整家庭相对较大，并且 然后筛选不同水平的婚姻满意度。 阶段 两个涉及进一步的婚姻家庭分类 与那些做也不转移负面影响的人不符 从婚姻到父母/子女互动。 这 确定是否发生转移将使用 一个在线编码员，他将编码负面的积极数量 婚姻和亲子互动期间的中立影响 会议。 实验设计将是3 x 2的设计，其中一个 因素是儿童性别（男性，女性）和另一个因素 作为家庭分类。 家庭将分为三个 组：（1）高婚姻满意度，（2）低婚姻满意度 也没有将婚姻和不矛盾转移给孩子，（3）低 婚姻满意和婚姻不和儿童的转移。
