我们通过童年家庭结构和家庭问题的记忆来研究成年后的亲子关系。相对于那些在双亲家庭长大的孩子，离婚的成年子女认为与父母的关系质量较低，尽管影响的程度通常是父亲的两到三倍。我们发现，这些影响是显着的积极特征的父亲与子女的关系，即离婚的成年子女报告的感觉显着减少爱和听他们的父亲。虽然在大多数情况下，父母离婚对关系质量的部分影响可以通过父母婚姻冲突或其他家庭问题的记忆来解释，但有一个例外。即使控制了家庭问题的记忆，我们发现离婚的成年子女与父母的联系也明显少于双亲家庭的成年人。我们还研究了有关父母代理人的数据。
We examined adult child-parent relations by childhood family structure and memories of family problems. Relative to those who grew up in two-parent families, adult children of divorce perceive both relationships with mothers and fathers to be of lower quality, although the magnitude of effects is generally two or three times greater for fathers. We find these effects to be significant for positive features of father-child relations, whereby adult children of divorce report feeling significantly less loved and less listened to by their fathers. While in most cases part of the effect of parental divorce on relationship quality can be explained by memories of parental marital conflict or other family problems, there is one exception. Even controlling for memories of family problems, we find adult children of divorce have significantly less contact with their parents than adults from two-parent families. We also examine data about parental surrogates.
