Abstract

Adolescent emotion regulation was tested as a mediator between parents’ emotion regulation and adolescent well-being. Specifically, 458 Chinese families including mothers, fathers, and adolescents rated their emotion regulation and adolescent well-being. Findings revealed that mothers’ and fathers’ behaviors predicted adolescent functioning, suggesting that family processes underscore adolescent development and well-being.
