Contact with Nonresident Parents, Interparental Conflict, and Children's Behavior.
Amato, Paul R.; Rezac, Sandra J.
Journal of Family Issues, v15 n2 p191-207 Jun 1994
Tested hypothesis that children's contact with nonresident parents decreases children's behavior problems when interparental conflict is low but increases children's behavior problems when interparental conflict is high. Analyzed data from 1,285 children in single-parent families. Hypothesis was supported among boys from divorced families; no support was found among girls. (Author/NB)
