This study aimed to assess the reliability and validity of the Coping Behavior with Parental Conflict scale for Adolescents (CBPC-A), as well as to explore the influence of coping mechanisms on interparental conflict, emotional insecurity in the interparental relationship, and adolescents’ adjustment. A questionnaire survey was administered to 132 high school students in Japan. The CBPC-A was found to comprise five higher-order factors: “involvement,” “avoidance,” “distraction,” “support seeking,” and “cognitive construction,” which were deemed to have adequate construct validity. The results of the adjusted mediation analysis suggested that “support seeking” and “distraction” served as protective factors against emotional instability, mitigating the impact of emotional instability on adolescent depression and self-esteem, while “involvement” was identified as a risk factor for the effects of emotional instability on adolescent aggression.
