Different studies used the construct of frequency of conflict and the extent of conflict issues interchangeably, and there was no distinction between them. While with the development of theoretical models, these constructs became different from each other. However, unlike the construction of frequency of conflict, which had an instrument to measure it, so far no model of assessment has been proposed to measure the construct of the extent of conflict dominations; Therefore, the present study aimed to measure the construction of the extent of conflict dominations and evaluate its role in parent-adolescent relationships. The present study is descriptive and structural equation modeling, and the research sample consisted of 704 adolescents studying in schools in Tehran. To measure the construction of the extent of conflict issues, the definition of the model "process of adolescent perception of conflict with parents" was used, and based on this model, a new scoring was proposed for the revised checklist of parent-adolescent conflict issues, and then this model was tested. The results of exploratory factor analysis identified two factors, and confirmatory factor analysis also approved one-factor and two-factor models for measuring this construction. The results of structural equation modeling also confirmed the effect of this construction on adolescent dissatisfaction with mother and father in the form of a structural model. As a result, researchers can use the proposed measurement model of the present study to measure the extent of conflict issues as a separate construct from the frequency of conflict.
