Note. GSI = Global Severity Index of the SCL-90-R; FAD = Family Assessment Device; SC = Parent Child Sexual Communication questionnaire; PMQ = Parental Monitoring Questionnaire. Higher scores on SC Total scale indicate more overall parent-child sex communication. Lower scores on PMQ correspond to more parent control over adolescent behavior, more favorable parent impressions of being able to solicit information from their adolescent, and more favorable parent impressions of their adolescent’s willingness to disclose information about their behavior to them.
