“…The interviews were audiotaped, and transcripts of the interviews were scored by a separate rater, blind to all other information. In a previous reliability study of the INS interview measure, direct agreement for each of the 32 level scores averaged 81% on a sample of 25 subjects (Krupa, 1984). On a sample of 25 subjects from this study, a Pearson product-moment correlation of .94 was obtained between the overall (averaged) INS scores coded by one of the coders from the original reliability study and the INS coder for the present study.…”

This study examines the relation between the developmental social-cognitive capacity for interpersonal negotiation and both parental-risk and adolescent-outcome variables in 172 adolescents 11 to 19 years of age. The sample was divided into two groups: those at risk because of affective disorder in one or both of their parents and a comparison group whose parents have never experienced affective illness. Adolescents' interpersonal negotiation strategy (INS) levels were negatively associated with the duration of parental affective illness (and with associated lower socioeconomic status and marital discord). INS level significantly predicted adolescents' adaptive social functioning (AFR) even after controlling for age, sex, intelligence, number of adolescent diagnoses, and parental-risk factors. Two additioaal patterns were found in the risk group: adolescents with both high AFR and high INS, and adolescents who have disturbed functioning despite high INS, These findings are consistent with a risk model in which social-cognitive capacity mediates between parental disorder and adaptive child behavior, and they suggest the importance of assessing children at risk with a developmental measure of relational capacity to complement the more traditional diagnostic and behavioral outcome measures.Recently, a number of studies of children and adolescents in families in which the parents have diagnosable affective disorder have been conducted using structured diagnostic interviews with both parent and child that are scored according to criterion diagnostic systems (e.g., Beardslee, Keller, & Klerman, 1985;Weissman, Prusoff, & Gammon, 1984;Welner & Garrison, 1985). These studies concur in demonstrating high rates of diagnosable psychopathology in the children of parents with affective illness, particularly, high rates of major depression, the disorder of many of their parents. Another important outcome that tends to be impaired in these children is adaptive functioning, their current behavior in relationships and activities (Beardslee, 1986;Keller et a!., 1986). In addition to the simple presence of affective disorder in the parents, severity and chronicity of parental illness, marital discord, and low social status are associated with higher rates of both mental disorder and impairment in adaptive functioning in the children (Keller et ah, 1986).Less, however, is understood of how developmental processes

“…Transcripts of the interviews were scored by one of the authors, who was trained to the level of established reliability. Interrater reliability had been established in a previous study: Direct agreement on level for scoring each of the four issues, based on a sample of 25 subjects, ranged from 62% to 96%, with a mean of 81% (Krupa, 1984). The four component issues representing each of the function steps in the negotiation process—definition of problem, action taken, justification, and complexity of feelings—were coded separately for each dilemma, as detailed in the INS manual.…”

Using a structured dilemma-discussion interview procedure, we presented 90 middle-class adolescents age 11-19 (45 boys and 45 girls) with eight hypothetical dyadic interpersonal dilemmas to assess the interpersonal negotiation strategies (INSs) they suggested using to resolve interpersonal problems. Each dilemma focused on the way a protagonist could deal with a significant other in a dyadic context. Responses were scored using an integrated structural developmental (four levels) by functional (four information processes) model of social-cognitive development. In addition, the eight dilemmas were constructed to systematically vary with respect to three contextual factors. It was hypothesized that INS level would be higher for older subjects and female subjects, and would be moderately associated with IQ. In addition, it was predicted that the level of negotiation would vary systematically with variation in contextual factors. In addition, the results provided information relevant to the thesis put forth by Sullivan (1953) that adolescence is a period for the consolidation of collaborative approaches to interpersonal relationships.
