Presenting a structural model of the relationship between parental conflicts and high-risk behaviors through resilience mediation and emotion regulation in adolescents

One of the most critical periods of life is adolescence. It is a period of rapid physical growth and emotional and psychological changes and a period of transition from childhood to adulthood. Adolescence is the period in which most behavioral maladaptations are manifested in this period. The tendency to risky behaviors is one of the behavioral maladaptations of adolescence. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between parental conflicts, resilience, emotion regulation and high-risk behaviors in order to develop a model.

This is a descriptive correlational study that was performed on 265 male high school students in the city of Langrud in the academic year 1300-1499. Conflict between Grich, Sid and Ficham (1992) parents, Connor and David Sean Resilience Scale (CD-RIS) and emotion regulation questionnaire were used. Also, structural equation modeling and software were used to assess the fit of the researcher's proposed model. Emus 22 was used.

In examining the direct effects, the findings showed that parental conflicts lead to increased risky behaviors.

Based on the findings of the present study, improving parental conflicts directly reduces risky behaviors.
