As such, identifying potential sources of influence on self-worth is important. Aspects of the parent–child relationship are often associated with adolescent self-worth but to date it is unclear whether such associations may be attributable to familial confounding (e.g. genetic relatedness). We set out to clarify the nature of relationships between parental expressed affection and adolescent self-worth, and parent–child closeness and adolescent self-worth. Methods We used data from the Twin and Offspring Study in Sweden, a children-of-twins sample comprising 909 adult twin pairs with adolescent children. Using these data we were able to apply structural equation models with which we could examine whether associations remained after accounting for genetic transmission. Results Results demonstrated that parent–child closeness and parental-expressed affection were both phenotypically associated with adolescent self-worth. Associations could not be attributed to genetic relatedness between parent and child. Conclusions Parent–child closeness and parental affection are associated with adolescent self-worth above and beyond effects attributable to genetic relatedness. Data were cross-sectional, so the direction of effects cannot be confirmed but findings support the notion that positive parent–child relationships increase adolescent self-worth.

Parental criticism and adolescent internalising symptoms: using a Children-of-Twins design with power calculations to account for genetic influence / Yasmin I. AHMADZADEH in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 63-5 (May 2022)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 63-5 (May 2022) . - p.599-607 Titre : Parental criticism and adolescent internalising symptoms: using a Children-of-Twins design with power calculations to account for genetic influence Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Yasmin I. AHMADZADEH, Auteur ; Thalia C. ELEY, Auteur ; Laurie HANNIGAN, Auteur ; Cathy CRESWELL, Auteur ; Paul LICHTENSTEIN, Auteur ; Erica SPOTTS, Auteur ; Jody GANIBAN, Auteur ; Jenae M.

MCADAMS, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.599-607 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Adolescent  Humans  Parents  Phenotype  Sweden  Twins/genetics/psychology  Parenting  genetics  intergenerational  psychopathology Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : BACKGROUND: Parental criticism is correlated with internalising symptoms in adolescent offspring. This correlation could in part reflect their genetic relatedness, if the same genes influence behaviours in both parents and offspring. We use a Children-of-Twins design to assess whether parent-reported criticism and offspring internalising symptoms remain associated after controlling for shared genes. To aid interpretation of our results and those of previous Children-of-Twins studies, we examine statistical power for the detection of genetic effects and explore the direction of possible causal effects between generations. METHODS: Data were drawn from two Swedish twin samples, comprising 876 adult twin pairs with adolescent offspring and 1,030 adolescent twin pairs with parents. Parent reports of criticism towards their offspring were collected concurrently with parent and offspring reports of adolescent internalising symptoms. Children-of-Twins structural equation models were used to control for genetic influence on the intergenerational association between parental criticism and adolescent internalising. RESULTS: Parental criticism was associated with adolescent internalising symptoms after controlling for genetic influence. No significant role was found for shared genes influencing phenotypes in both generations, although power analyses suggested that some genetic effects may have gone undetected. Models could not distinguish directionality for nongenetic, causal effects between generations. CONCLUSIONS: Parental criticism may be involved in psychosocial family processes in the context of adolescent internalising. Future studies should seek to identify these processes and provide clarity on the direction of potential causal effects.
