    W&M ScholarWorks Undergraduate Honors Theses Theses, Dissertations, & Master Projects 5-2017 Links Between Maternal Emotion Socialization and Adolescents' Social Outcomes: The Mediating Role of Peer Emotion Socialization Natalee N. Price College of William and Mary Follow this and additional works at: https://scholarworks.wm.edu/honorstheses Part of the Child Psychology Commons, Clinical Psychology Commons, and the Developmental Psychology Commons Recommended Citation Price, Natalee N., "Links Between Maternal Emotion Socialization and Adolescents' Social Outcomes: The Mediating Role of Peer Emotion Socialization" (2017). Undergraduate Honors Theses. Paper 1020. https://scholarworks.wm.edu/honorstheses/1020 This Honors Thesis is brought to you for free and open access by the Theses, Dissertations, & Master Projects at W&M ScholarWorks. It has been accepted for inclusion in Undergraduate Honors Theses by an authorized administrator of W&M ScholarWorks. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Abstract Parents remain influential emotion socialization (ES) agents for their adolescents, with parents’ supportive and unsupportive ES associated with youths’ adaptive and maladaptive social outcomes, respectively (Buckholdt, Kitzmann, & Cohen, 2014). However, less research has examined how adolescents’ ES behaviors towards their close friends may mediate these links. Thus, the current study examines whether maternal ES relates to adolescents’ social outcomes (e.g., overt and relational victimization, bullying, friendship quality, receipt of prosocial behavior) through adolescents’ ES behaviors towards their friends. Participants were 158 middle- school age youth (Mage = 12.67 years; 59.5% girls; 78.5% Caucasian; from mostly upper-middle class families) who participated with their mothers and a same-sex close friend. Maternal ES was measured via mother-report, peer ES was assessed through friend-report of expected ES responses from their friend (the parent’s child), and adolescents’ social experiences was measured through adolescent self-report.
