Disattenuated correlations were calculated for variables correlated with the FES-cohesion and FES-conflict scales and are as follows: FES-cohesion and Structure and Resources (rmothers =−.47, rfathers =−.52); FES-cohesion and Family Problems (rmothers =−.65, rfathers =−.22); FES-cohesion and Sibling Problems (rmothers =−.19, rfathers =−.04); FES-conflict and Structure and Resources (rmothers = .24, rfathers = .27); FES-conflict and Family Problems (rmothers = .40, rfathers = .43); and FES-conflict and Sibling Problems (rmothers = .45, rfathers = .13).
