“…Additionally, psychological factors may be influenced by other factors surrounding youth's life. For instance, Zemp et al [65] suggest that children's psychological health may be influenced by the type of relation between the parents; parental emotional availability and peer relationships are also attributed to an essential role in the construction of a positive mindset [66]. Furthermore, some authors propose that even physical pathologies may play a role in it [67].…”

Promotion of healthy active behaviors should start from early ages, as behaviors learned in youth are more likely to endure. A fundamental body of research in this field focuses on the implementation of programs within physical education (PE), thanks to its favorable characteristics. However, traditional PE based on exercise training and controlling styles seems to have weaker association with students’ health benefits. For this reason, the aim of this study was to assess the effects of a game-based PE program on physical fitness and psychological health in schoolchildren aged 10 to 12 years old. A total of 252 students were distributed in experimental (EG, games-centered activities) and control (CG, traditional exercise training activities) groups. The program lasted 6 months. Health-related physical fitness components, psychological wellbeing, self-esteem, stress, and anxiety were assessed before and after the treatment. Both groups increased physical fitness at post-test; however, cardiorespiratory fitness did not improve. No differences were found between the groups at post-test. Our results show that games may be as effective as traditional training methods; yet, they suggest that PE alone may be insufficient for obtaining substantive benefits in cardiorespiratory fitness, regardless of the type of task presented.

“…In de studie van Warmuth et al (2020) werden zowel vragenlijsten als observaties gebruikt om constructief conflict te meten. In vier studies werd er door de informant gerapporteerd over het constructieve conflictgedrag van beide ouders (Kopystynska et al, 2017;Lee et al, 2019;Davies et al, 2012, studie 1;Zemp et al, 2020). In vijf studies werd er door de informant gerapporteerd over het conflictgedrag van de informant zelf én het conflictgedrag van de andere ouder (Cheung, 2021;Cheung et al, 2016;Coln et al, 2013;Davies et al, 2012, studie 2;Lee et al, 2020;Warmuth et al, 2020).…”

“…In één studie (Craft et al, 2021) wordt de vergelijking gemaakt tussen een constructieve conflictstrategie, een boze conflictstrategie (fysiek of verbaal agressief, defensief en vijandig gedrag), een depressieve conflictstrategie (conflictvermijdend en teruggetrokken gedrag) en een toegeeflijke conflictstrategie (toegeven en weinig moeite doen om de eigen kant van het verhaal toe te lichten). Verder zijn er twee studies uitsluitend op constructief conflict gericht; zij maakten geen vergelijking tussen constructief conflict en een andere vorm van conflict (Cheung, 2021;Zemp et al, 2020).…”

Conflicten tussen ouders kunnen schadelijke gevolgen hebben voor kinderen, zoals gedragsproblemen, slaapproblemen en slechte schoolprestaties. De manier waarop conflicten tussen ouders benaderd worden lijkt hierin een belangrijke rol te spelen. In de literatuur wordt onderscheid gemaakt tussen destructieve en constructieve conflicthantering. Bij destructieve conflicten gebruiken ouders negatieve conflictstrategieën, zoals dreigend en agressief gedrag of het negeren van de ander. Bij constructieve conflicten gebruiken ouders tactieken gericht op het toewerken naar een oplossing of het versterken van de relatie. Het is de vraag of de negatieve gevolgen van conflicten zich ook manifesteren wanneer ouders een constructieve conflictstrategie hanteren. In deze literatuurstudie is de impact van constructief conflict tussen ouders op de psychosociale problemen en emotionele onveiligheid van kinderen onderzocht. Psychosociale problemen betreffen internaliserende en externaliserende problemen. Emotionele onveiligheid betreft de onveiligheid die kinderen ervaren binnen het gezin. De resultaten van de studies toonden geen of een negatief verband tussen constructief conflict en psychosociale problemen en een negatief verband tussen constructief conflict en emotionele onveiligheid. Als ouders op een constructieve manier met conflict omgaan lijkt dit zodoende niet te leiden tot negatieve gevolgen voor de kinderen. Bijsluiter voor de praktijk Conflicten tussen ouders kunnen leiden tot negatieve uitkomsten bij kinderen, al lijkt de vorm van het conflict hierbij een rol te spelen: de schadelijke invloed van conflicten tussen ouders gaat mogelijk alleen of voornamelijk uit van conflicten die destructief van aard zijn. Met behulp van een systematische literatuurstudie (12 studies) onderzochten wij het verband tussen enerzijds constructief conflict tussen ouders en anderzijds de psychosociale problemen en emotionele onveiligheid van kinderen. Het onderzoek wees uit dat als ouders op een constructieve manier met conflict omgaan dit niet lijkt te leiden tot negatieve gevolgen voor de kinderen. Abstract Interparental conflict can have severe consequences for children, including behavioral problems, sleep problems and poor academical performance. The way in which interparental conflicts are managed seem to play an important role in the extent to which the conflicts affect children. The literature on interparental conflict distinguishes different forms of interparental conflict, including destructive and constructive conflicts. During destructive conflicts, parents use negative tactics such as threatening the partner, using aggressive behavior or ignoring the partner. During constructive conflicts, parents use tactics aimed at working towards a solution or strengthening the relationship. The negative consequences of destructive conflict are well established. The question is whether these negative consequences also occur when parents’ conflict is constructive. Therefore, this literature review investigates the influence of constructive conflicts on the psychosocial problems of children and on children’s emotional insecurity. Psychosocial problems include internalizing and externalizing problems. Emotional insecurity is the feeling of security children experience at home. Results revealed no association or found a negative association between constructive conflict and psychosocial problems. Moreover, the studies revealed a negative association between constructive conflict and emotional insecurity. Finally, emotional insecurity was found to mediate the relationship between constructive conflict and internalizing and externalizing problems. Thus, constructive conflicts between parents do not lead to negative consequences for their children.

“…In support of this assertion, constructive IPC was shown to predict parental warmth (McCoy et al, 2009, 2013) as well as less inconsistent discipline, less unsupportive reactions, and less psychological control for mothers and fathers (Warmuth et al, 2020). Constructive IPC appears to be unrelated to positive parenting in Western culture (Coln et al, 2013; Du Rocher Schudlich & Cummings, 2007; Zemp et al, 2020), but in Japanese culture, constructive IPC correlated with maternal positive parenting (Hosokawa & Katsura, 2017). Possibly due to cultural differences in parenting, children in non‐Western cultures may particularly benefit when mothers use constructive management strategies.…”

This conceptual review summarizes two decades of research on conflict management behaviors and their implications for family functioning. We review the accumulated research on the impact of three common conflict resolution strategiesdestructive interparental conflict, constructive interparental conflict, and intimate partner violenceon parenting and parent-child relationships, including child abuse. Our review is based on published peer-reviewed articles that include families with minor children of various ethnic and racial compositions and diverse family forms. We also provide a brief overview of the literature covering correlates of specific conflict management behaviors and comment on the effectiveness (or lack thereof) of intervention Statement of Relevance: This updated review yields process-related insights. Prior research mainly conceptualized conflict in negative, narrow termswith correspondingly harmful outcomes. More recent work suggests that the impacts of conflict are shaped by how it is handled by adults and perceived by children. This review sheds light on correlates of negative conflictincluding verbal and physical conflict. It also highlights emerging evidence on the implications of constructive conflict and provides recommendations for future research.
