Jankowiak Barbara, Konflikt miedzy rodzicami jako czynnik ryzyka nieprzystosowania dzieci i mlodziezy (Parental Conflict as a Risk Factor of Maladjustment in Children and Adolescents). Studia Edukacyjne nr 36, 2015, Poznan 2015, pp. 165-178. Adam Mickiewicz University Press. ISBN 978-83- 232-2958-2. ISSN 1233-6688. DOI: 10.14746/se.2015.36.10 The aim of the article is to analyze parental conflict as a risk factor of difficulties experienced by their children. Research studies have shown that parental conflict is connected with maladjustment, de- fined as internalizing and externalizing problems. The difficulties experienced by children contribute to a deepening of the conflict between partners, especially in the field of parenting. The research cited proves that children and adolescents in families with conflicts and arguments should be given psychological and pedagogical help since they are in a risk group with disorders and maladjust- ment.
