Abstract

While much is known about the consequences of PSM, comparatively little is known about the causes of PSM. Furthermore, while PSM is believed to be influenced by parents, no study has obtained measures of PSM directly from parents. This study contributes to the literature by being the first to survey both children and their parents in a study of the antecedents of PSM. Nested regression models paring over 800 parents and children suggest that parental PSM-related values have a strong association with the PSM-related values of their children. This is the first study to show the intergenerational transfer of PSM and suggests that PSM may be largely socialized via the family.

摘要

尽管人们对PSM的后果知之甚少，但对PSM的成因知之甚少。此外，虽然认为PSM受父母的影响，但尚无研究直接从父母那里获得PSM的测量方法。这项研究通过对PSM的先例进行调查，首次对儿童及其父母进行了调查，从而为文献做出了贡献。嵌套回归模型对800多个父母和孩子进行了剖析，表明父母与PSM相关的价值观与其孩子与PSM相关的价值观有着密切的联系。这是第一项显示PSM代际转移的研究，表明PSM可能在很大程度上是通过家庭社会化的。
