AB  - Research has consistently found that poor family functioning is a risk factor for 
      adolescents' internalizing problems. However, studies of the mediating and 
      moderating mechanisms underlying this relation are insufficient. In this study, 
      we explore the association between family functioning and adolescents' 
      internalizing problems by testing the mediating roles of positive youth 
      development (PYD) attributes and the moderating role of migrant status. A large 
      cross-sectional sample of 11,865 Chinese adolescents (mean age = 14.45 years, 
      standard deviation = 1.55 years) were used to measure internalizing problems, 
      family functioning, PYD, migrant status, and other demographic information. After 
      controlling for covariates (age, gender, grade, and socioeconomic status), the 
      results revealed that PYD mediated the relation between family functioning and 
      internalizing problems. Moreover, migrant status moderated the relationship 
      between family functioning and internalizing problems. Specifically, the effects 
      of family functioning on internalizing problems were stronger among local-born 
      adolescents than among migrant adolescents. The findings indicate that improving 
      family functioning and PYD attributes may be promising approaches to 
      prevent/reduce adolescent internalizing problems.
