The final model. The partial mediating influence of father-child attachment and off-spring’s self-esteem on the relationships between parent marital conflict and increases in IGD features. All pathways are standardized coefficients. ^*P < .05. Green lines indicate the direct effect of parental conflict on increases in IGD features (ß =0.206, P = 0.003). Blue lines indicate the indirect path for the role of father in self-esteem (ß =0.078; − 0.62 × 0.60 × 0.21, P = 0.045). Red dotted lines indicate the indirect path for the role of mother in self-esteem (ß =0.027; − 0.47 × 0.27 × 0.21, P = 0.081).
