最近的研究为成年早期的个体发展提供了新的线索,但很少有研究人员研究这一阶段的兄弟姐妹关系。这些关系经历转变,因为个人进入成人角色,并将他们的生活导向朋友和浪漫的伴侣,并建立独立于父母和兄弟姐妹。本文探讨了影响个人及其兄弟姐妹关系的主要生活事件和角色转变,如离家、完成学业、就业、结婚和生子。此外,它认为兄弟姐妹关系可能会影响个人在过渡到成年,并呼吁注意家庭和文化背景在塑造这些关系的重要性。文章最后对未来成年早期及以后的兄弟姐妹关系研究提出了建议。
Recent research has shed new light on individual development during the early adulthood years, yet few investigators have examined sibling relationships during this stage of life. These relationships undergo transformations as individuals enter adult roles and orient their lives toward friends and romantic partners and establish independence from parents and siblings. This article examines major life events and role transitions, such as leaving home, completing school, obtaining employment, getting married, and having children, that influence individuals and their sibling relationships. In addition, it considers how sibling relationships may affect individuals during the transition to adulthood and calls attention to the importance of family and cultural contexts in shaping these relationships. The article concludes with suggestions for future research on sibling relationships during early adulthood and beyond.
