Previous research has suggested that parent-child conflict makes an important contribution to the childhood externalizing disorders (EXT), specifically Attention Deficit-Hyperactivity Disorder, Oppositional Defiant Disorder, and Conduct Disorder. However, the mechanism mediating this association (i.e., genetic or environmental) has remained unclear. The present series of studies explicitly examined the etiology of the association between conflict and the disorders within the context of three genetically-informative designs. First, I examined the etiology of the concurrent relationship between conflict and the disorders at age 11 using an epidemiological-based twin study. Next, I replicated and expanded upon the previous findings using an unrelated sample of adopted and biological siblings. The third study examined the relationship between conflict and EXT over time, following the twins from ages 11 to 14, via a longitudinal, cross-lagged, biometric design.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a Previous research has suggested that parent-child conflict makes an important contribution to the childhood externalizing disorders (EXT), specifically Attention Deficit-Hyperactivity Disorder, Oppositional Defiant Disorder, and Conduct Disorder. However, the mechanism mediating this association (i.e., genetic or environmental) has remained unclear. The present series of studies explicitly examined the etiology of the association between conflict and the disorders within the context of three genetically-informative designs. First, I examined the etiology of the concurrent relationship between conflict and the disorders at age 11 using an epidemiological-based twin study. Next, I replicated and expanded upon the previous findings using an unrelated sample of adopted and biological siblings. The third study examined the relationship between conflict and EXT over time, following the twins from ages 11 to 14, via a longitudinal, cross-lagged, biometric design.
520 $a Together, these studies yielded three primary results. First, conflict appears to act as a common vulnerability that underlies and unites the disorders, uniformly increasing risk via genetic and shared environmental mechanisms. Second, this relationship appears to extend to other, non-twin samples using a self-report delinquency questionnaire. That this finding is similar in an independent sample using a different methodological design greatly strengthens our confidence that the relationship between conflict and EXT is partially mediated via shared environmental mechanisms. Third, there appears to be a bi-directional relationship between conflict and EXT over time, such that both conflict and EXT at 11 independently predict the other three years later, results which are suggestive of a "downward spiral" of interplay between conflict and EXT.
520 $a Collectively, these findings have two important implications. First, contrary to behavioral genetic dogma, the shared environment makes an important contribution to the relationship between conflict and EXT. Second, these results are consistent with the idea that environmental triggers, which are partially elicited by the child's behavior, are in turn responsible for maintaining/exacerbating the child's oppositional and delinquent behavior. It may be that environments and genes ultimately express themselves via this type of mutual, dynamic mechanism. Future genetically-informative longitudinal research and gene-environment interaction studies conducted at the level of the gene may ultimately yield a more definitive conclusion.
