To explore the relationship between interparental conflict and adolescents’ subjective well-being in two-child families, and to analyze the mediating effects of sibling relationships and basic psychological needs satisfaction, based on family system theory and self-determination theory, a questionnaire survey was conducted among 907 adolescents from two-child families. Results showed that: 1) Interparental conflict was significantly and negatively related to adolescents’ subjective well-being in two-child families. 2) The interparental conflict on the subjective well-being of adolescents was mediated by “sibling warmth/hostility” respectively in two-child families. 3) “Sibling warmth - basic psychological needs satisfaction” also played the partial role of chain intermediary between the interparental conflict and adolescents’ subjective well-being in two-child families. Practically, these findings reveal the process of interparental conflict on adolescents’ subjective well-being in two-child families, which provides implications for the upbringing of two-child families.
