This study uses an ecological perspective to explore the unique associations of maternal personal characteristics, parenting behaviors, and adolescents' own characteristics to posttraumatic distress and symptoms of arousal, avoidance, and intrusions, in 97 early adolescents and mothers from the Washington, DC, area to the events of September 11, 2001. Maternal characteristics and/or adolescents' perceptions of parenting behaviors were uniquely related to adolescents' responses, controlling for adolescents' own characteristics. Maternal responses and parenting behaviors play key roles in adolescents' continuing responses to the traumatic events of September 11.
