We examined a possible predictor of (step)parent-adult child closeness in adulthood, namely, the frequency of parental involvement in different child-rearing tasks during youth. We expected that although involvement in children's lives would be important for the strength of all intergenerational ties, it would be particularly important for stepparents' closeness with their adult stepchildren. We used the Parents and Children in The Netherlands survey to test our hypotheses. Our analytical sample consisted of the reports of adults (25-45 years old; n = 5,107) about how frequently different types of parents engaged with them in activities related to school, leisure, and personal communication (including reports about 1,361 stepmothers and 1,489 stepfathers). Our results clearly demonstrate that an increase in the frequency of performing a task was associated with more closeness during adulthood, but this effect was significantly stronger in stepparent-child compared to biological parent-child ties. We interpret this finding as stepparents having to "earn" or more explicitly demonstrate their desire for closeness to stepchildren. An interesting gender difference emerged in the position of divorced biological parents, with adult children's closeness to divorced biological fathers also being more contingent on parental involvement, whereas that was not unequivocally the case for divorced biological mothers.

青年时期的父母参与和成年后与父母的亲密关系:继父母和亲生父母。

我们研究了成年后(步骤)父母与成年子女亲密程度的可能预测因素,即父母在青年时期参与不同育儿任务的频率。我们预计,虽然参与孩子的生活对于所有代际关系的强度都很重要,但对于继父母与成年继子女的亲密关系尤其重要。我们使用荷兰父母和儿童调查来检验我们的假设。我们的分析样本包括成年人(25-45 岁;n = 5,107)关于不同类型的父母与他们一起参与学校、休闲和个人交流活动的频率的报告(包括关于 1,361 名继母和 1,489 名继父的报告) ). 我们的结果清楚地表明,执行某项任务的频率增加与成年后的亲密度增加有关,但与亲子关系相比,这种影响在继父母与子女之间的关系要强得多。我们将这一发现解释为继父母必须“挣钱”或更明确地表明他们渴望与继子女亲​​近。一个有趣的性别差异出现在离异亲生父母的位置上,成年子女与离异亲生父亲的亲密程度也更多地取决于父母的参与,而离异亲生母亲的情况并非如此。(PsycInfo 数据库记录 (c) 2020 APA,保留所有权利)。但与亲子亲子关系相比,这种影响在继父母与孩子之间的关系要强得多。我们将这一发现解释为继父母必须“挣钱”或更明确地表明他们渴望与继子女亲​​近。一个有趣的性别差异出现在离异亲生父母的位置上,成年子女与离异亲生父亲的亲密程度也更多地取决于父母的参与,而离异亲生母亲的情况并非如此。(PsycInfo 数据库记录 (c) 2020 APA,保留所有权利)。但与亲子亲子关系相比,这种影响在继父母与孩子之间的关系要强得多。我们将这一发现解释为继父母必须“挣钱”或更明确地表明他们渴望与继子女亲​​近。一个有趣的性别差异出现在离异亲生父母的位置上,成年子女与离异亲生父亲的亲密程度也更多地取决于父母的参与,而离异亲生母亲的情况并非如此。(PsycInfo 数据库记录 (c) 2020 APA,保留所有权利)。一个有趣的性别差异出现在离异亲生父母的位置上,成年子女与离异亲生父亲的亲密程度也更多地取决于父母的参与,而离异亲生母亲的情况并非如此。(PsycInfo 数据库记录 (c) 2020 APA,保留所有权利)。一个有趣的性别差异出现在离异亲生父母的位置上,成年子女与离异亲生父亲的亲密程度也更多地取决于父母的参与,而离异亲生母亲的情况并非如此。(PsycInfo 数据库记录 (c) 2020 APA,保留所有权利)。
