Abstract

This systematic review examines studies conducted since the year 2000 on the adjustment of children (0-18 years) in joint custody (30/70%) and on the associated family factors (i.e., parenting and interparental conflict). Studies were extracted following PRISMA. Sixteen quantitative studies met the inclusion criteria. Fourteen assessed internalizing adjustment and 10 examined externalizing adjustment. Only 2 were rated as having high quality. Limitations included cross-sectional design, reliance in single informant, failure to adjust for important characteristics and no theoretical approach. The results show that the adjustment level of children in joint custody is as good, if not better, than that of those in sole custody. It also shows however that interparental conflict, parental practices, and the parents’ mental health generally play a more influential role. In regard to conflictual contexts, studies are beginning to identify, particularly in joint custody, risk factors such as strict arrangements and concerns about the children’s safety.

摘要

该系统评价审查了自 2000 年以来对共同监护下的儿童（0-18 岁）的调整 (30/70%) 和相关家庭因素（即养育子女和父母间冲突）进行的研究。研究是在 PRISMA 之后提取的。十六项定量研究符合纳入标准。14 人评估了内部化调整，10 人检查了外部化调整。只有 2 个被评为高质量。局限性包括横断面设计、对单一信息提供者的依赖、未能针对重要特征进行调整以及没有理论方法。结果表明，共同监护儿童的适应水平与单独监护儿童一样好，甚至更好。然而，它也表明父母间的冲突、父母的做法、而父母的心理健康通常起着更大的影响。关于冲突情况，研究开始确定，特别是在共同监护方面，风险因素，例如严格的安排和对儿童安全的担忧。
