The relation between marital andfamilial relationships and children's performance and behavior in school was examined in a sample of 143families with children in early or middle childhood. Correlational analyses indicated a complex set of relations dependent on the gender of the child, the relationship being assessed, the means of assessment, and the type of outcome measure used. Results are discussed in terms of implications for researchers and clinicians.
