对八个阿拉伯社会的2 893名阿拉伯青少年进行了多代互联性量表的测试。结果显示，不同阿拉伯社会的青少年与家庭之间的联系有很大差异。阿拉伯人在情感、财务、功能和总体连接性方面的得分高于美国人。女性青少年在所有三种连接性上都比男性青少年更具连接性。研究发现，城市化对情感和财务联系的影响很小，但很显著。排在第一位的青少年在财务关联性方面得分更高。需要进一步的研究，使用其他工具，如访谈、观察和父母的自我报告。
The Multigenerational Interconnectedness Scale was administered to 2,893 Arab adolescents in eight Arab societies. Results show that adolescent-family connectedness differs significantly across the Arab societies. Arabs scored higher in emotional, financial, functional, and total connectedness than Americans. Female adolescents were more connected than male adolescents in all three kinds of connectedness. A low but significant effect of urbanization was found on emotional and financial connectedness. First-born adolescents scored higher in financial connectedness. Further studies that employ additional tools such as interviews, observations, and parents' self-report are needed.
