由于成年过渡期的延长和结婚率的下降,成年人与父母之间的纽带在个人生活中变得越来越重要。这篇综述围绕这些主题组织研究,以在过去十年更广泛的社会变化的背景下解决父母和成年子女之间的关系。文献检索包括主要期刊(如《婚姻与家庭杂志》)、《心理信息》和《谷歌学者》的目录。文献综述揭示了社会和代际变化的模式。技术进步(例如,智能手机的引入)伴随着几代人之间更频繁的接触和相互依赖。大衰退和经济压力改变了许多亲子关系的性质,包括代际同居率的增加。个人生活问题,如离婚、成瘾和身体健康问题,反映在积极和消极的关系质量、矛盾心理和代际支持的复杂变化中。政府政策反映了社会价值观,进而影响了父母和成年子女资源的分配。政治动荡引发了移民,将大片地理区域的几代人分隔开来。政治动荡引发了移民,将大片地理区域的几代人分隔开来。人口结构的变化(如家庭成员组成、推迟结婚、同性婚姻)在成年人与父母之间的关系中也表现得很明显。研究结果与语境中的代际系统模型一致,该模型假设社会转型与代际关系的变化通过相互影响同时发生。
Due to extended transitions to adulthood and declining marital rates, bonds between adults and parents have grown increasingly salient in individuals' lives. This review organizes research around these topics to address ties between parents and grown children in the context of broader societal changes over the past decade. Literature searches included tables of contents of premier journals (e.g., Journal of Marriage and Family), Psychological Info, and Google Scholar. The literature review revealed patterns of social and intergenerational changes. Technological advances (e.g., introduction of the smart phone) co-occurred with more frequent contact and interdependence between generations. The Great Recession and financial strains altered the nature of many parent/child ties, including increased rates of intergenerational coresidence. Individual life problems such as divorce, addiction, and physical health problems were reflected in complex changes in positive and negative relationship qualities, ambivalence, and intergenerational support. Government policies reflect societal values and in turn, affected the distribution of parents' and grown children's resources. Political disruptions instigated migration, separating generations across large geographic regions. Political disruptions instigated migration, separating generations across large geographic regions. Demographic changes (e.g., constellation of family members, delayed marriage, same sex marriage) were also manifest in ties between adults and parents. Findings were consistent with the Intergenerational Systems in Context Model, which posits that societal transformations co-occur with changes in intergenerational relationships via reciprocal influences.
