The present online questionnaire-based study compared 72 lesbian mothers by donor insemination (within 36 families), 78 gay fathers by gestational surrogacy (within 39 families), and 72 heterosexual parents by assisted reproduction (without donated eggs and/or sperm; within 36 families), on their desire to have more children and their ideal number of children. All participants self-identified as cisgender, lived in Israel, and had a mean number of two children. The study also explored the predictors of participants' desire for more children. Multilevel modeling analyses indicated that, when participants' actual number of children was controlled for, lesbian and gay parents did not differ from heterosexual parents on their desire for more children and their ideal number of children. Parents' younger age, greater positivity, and lower attribution of responsibility to children for misbehavior, in addition to a lower discrepancy between their actual and ideal number of children, were associated with greater desire for more children. The results suggest that lesbian and gay parenthood may mark an entrance to the Israeli familistic "mainstream," which, in turn, may decrease differences in parenthood aspirations as a function of sexual orientation. The study contributes to the scant literature on the desire for more than one child among parents in diverse family configurations. It further provides family researchers and policy makers with vital information on the most influential factors associated with the desire for more children among lesbian, gay, and heterosexual parents.

通过辅助生殖成为父母的以色列女同性恋、男同性恋和异性恋夫妇希望有更多的孩子。

目前基于在线问卷调查的研究比较了 72 名通过捐赠受精的女同性恋母亲(在 36 个家庭内)、78 名通过妊娠代孕的同性恋父亲(在 39 个家庭内)和 72 名通过辅助生殖(没有捐赠的卵子和/或精子;在 36 个家庭内)的异性恋父母家庭),关于他们想要更多孩子的愿望和他们理想的孩子数量。所有参与者都自我认定为顺性别,居住在以色列,平均有两个孩子。该研究还探讨了参与者对更多孩子的渴望的预测因素。多层次建模分析表明,当参与者的实际孩子数量被控制时,女同性恋和男同性恋父母在对更多孩子的渴望和他们理想的孩子数量上与异性恋父母没有差异。父母年龄越小,积极性越高,除了他们实际和理想的孩子数量之间的差异较小之外,他们对孩子的不当行为的责任归因也较低,这与他们对更多孩子的渴望有关。结果表明,女同性恋和同性恋为人父母可能标志着以色列家庭主义“主流”的入口,这反过来可能会减少作为性取向函数的为人父母愿望的差异。该研究有助于研究关于不同家庭结构的父母对一个以上孩子的渴望的文献。它进一步为家庭研究人员和政策制定者提供重要信息,说明与女同性恋、男同性恋和异性恋父母想要更多孩子的愿望相关的最有影响力的因素。(PsycInfo 数据库记录 (c) 2022 APA,保留所有权利)。
