Coparenting might impact on child development, on the intensity of parent-child con-flict, and on the manifestation of internalizing symptoms. Children’s perception of coparenting and gender specificities are important to understand this phenomenon. The direct relationship mediated by the intensity of the parent-adolescent conflict in symptom manifestation and the effects of the moderation of the adolescent’s gender were investigated. The study included 357 adolescents, 53.2% female, aged 11 to 18 years (M = 14.42; SD = 1.84). The results indicated that the relationship between coparenting and the internalizing symptoms presented by the adolescents are mediated by the intensity of parent-adolescent conflicts. The findings contribute to the identifi-cation of the coparenting reflexes and direct clinical strategies to adolescents and fam-ilies.

La cogenitorialità può impattare sullo sviluppo del bambino, sull’intensità del conflitto genitore-figlio e sulla manifestazione di sintomi internalizzanti. La percezione della cogenitorialità da parte dei figli e le specificità di genere di questi ultimi sono importanti per comprendere questo fenomeno. Lo studio analizza il rapporto diretto mediato dall’intensità del conflitto genitore-adolescente nell’espressione dei sintomi e gli effetti di moderazione del genere dell’adolescente. Lo studio ha coinvolto 357 adolescenti, di cui 53,2% femmine di età compresa tra 11 e 18 anni (M = 14,42; DS = 1,84). I risultati mostrano che la relazione tra il coparenting dei genitori ed i sintomi internalizzanti presentati dagli adolescenti sono mediati dall’intensità del conflitto genitore-adolescente. I risultati contribuiscono all’identificazione del ruolo del coparenting, e forniscono un indirizzo per le strategie cliniche nel lavoro con gli adolescenti e le loro famiglie.
