Abstract
In our sample of 112 mother-preadolescent dyads [M(SD) age = 11.69(1.06)], we found greater preadolescents’ family related stress was associated with greater maternal stress during a conflict-based task. Greater maternal stress was related to less preadolescent voluntary and greater involuntary coping responses to family related stressors.
