Abstract

A path model in Mplus had good fit using data from 2308 ethnically-diverse university students. Secure romantic attachment, family cohesion, parental intrusiveness, and parent-child conflict were directly related to romantic attachment, and indirectly to depressive symptoms. Family cohesion, parent-child conflict, and covert interparental conflict were directly related to depression.
