Abstract: Examined intergenerational transmission of hostile parenting, moderating effects of child negative emotional reactivity, and links between second generation (G2) hostile parenting and G3 problem behaviors. Found that G1 mothers' hostile parenting when target participant was an adolescent (G2) predicted G2 hostile parenting toward their young child several years later. Hostile parenting by G2 related to G3 behavior problems only when G3 children were rated highly reactive and emotionally negative. (Author/KB)
