| Popis: | Studies show that child-to-parent violence (CPV) occurs in many families, but the impact of ethnicity on CPV is largely unknown. This cross-sectional study examines whether there are differences in CPV between ethnic Swedish adolescents and adolescents with a background in Muslim countries, both first and second generation. The study is based on a stratified sample of 4222 adolescents and young adults aged 13-20 years. Self-report data were collected in schools across 12 municipalities in southern Sweden. Results indicate that verbal aggression is less frequent among both first- and second-generation immigrants than among ethnic Swedish adolescents. Girls reported more verbal aggression than boys, particularly in the Swedish group. Ethnic differences are smaller and more difficult to interpret for coercive behavior and physical aggression. Ethnic differences in norms around parent-child relationships may influence less severe behaviors to a greater extent, whereas maladaptive behaviors involving more substantial norm violations may be more affected by individual and family-level risk factors. |
