dc.description.abstractDivorce has important consequences for the family unit and is often experienced as stressful. Factors such as parental gender, time since divorce, and the age of the children contribute to considerable variability in how individuals adapt, under scoring the need to study adaptation through a profile-based approach. This study examines the diversity of post-divorce adaptation and its association with mental health symptoms in high-conflict families. A sample of 257 divorced parents using family visitation centers in Spain (mean age = 40.3, SD = 6.91) completed measures assessing adaptation to divorce, as well as parental and child psychological symptoms. A person-centered latent profile analysis (LPA) identified three distinct adaptation profiles. Parents characterized by lower levels of coparenting and higher conflict exhibited greater psychological symptomatology. In contrast, children with parents demonstrating an overall adaptation to divorce showed the most favorable outcomes. These findings highlight the heterogeneity of the adaptation process following divorce. Conflict with the ex-partner and the willingness to engage in cooperative coparenting emerged as critical factors associated with family well-being.en
