摘要:本研究考察了青少年兄弟姐妹影响知觉的性质及其相关性。参与者包括来自191个婚姻完好家庭的两个兄弟姐妹(第一个出生的年龄M=17.34;第二个出生的M=14.76岁)。青少年对兄弟姐妹影响的感知是通过对关于兄弟姐妹是否对他们有影响的开放式问题的编码反应来衡量的。分析表明,年长的兄弟姐妹和年轻的兄弟姐妹报告了不同的影响模式。对于第一个孩子来说,差异化的影响和作为榜样更普遍,而对于第二个孩子来说,建模和建模+差异化更普遍。第一个和第二个孩子的影响力报告与他们的关系和个人素质有不同的联系。讨论的重点是需要改进兄弟姐妹影响进程的衡量标准。关键词:青少年,建模,兄弟姐妹识别,兄弟姐妹分化,兄弟姐妹影响,兄弟姐妹关系。在过去20年里,人们对兄弟姐妹关系的兴趣呈指数级增长。这种兴趣的基础是兄弟姐妹在彼此的生活和发展中扮演着核心角色的想法。例如,关于儿童和青少年时间利用的研究表明,兄弟姐妹在课余时间与父母或同龄人在一起的时间比与父母或同龄人在一起的时间更多(例如,McHale&Crouter,1996)。通过他们的日常陪伴,以及他们作为社会经验提供者、战斗人员、模范、甚至是彼此的陪衬的作用,兄弟姐妹被认为以使他们相似和不同的方式相互影响。然而,面对这些多重影响,大多数考察兄弟姐妹影响的研究都未能直接衡量影响过程。取而代之的是,兄弟姐妹影响过程被援引作为对观察到的兄弟姐妹相似和不同模式的事后解释。这项研究的目的是(A)记录第一个和第二个兄弟姐妹对他们的兄弟姐妹如何影响他们的看法,以及(B)将这些影响的看法与可能促进或抑制他们行动的家庭环境联系起来。社会和观察性学习与兄弟姐妹相似性大多数关于兄弟姐妹影响的研究都寻找并发现了导致兄弟姐妹相似的过程的证据。例如,青少年兄弟姐妹的危险和越轨行为如生育和性行为(例如EAST,1998)、健康危险行为(D‘Amico&Fromme,1997)、吸烟(例如,Bard&Rodgers,2003;Slomkowski,Rende,Novak、Lloyd-Richardson和Niaura,2005)、酗酒和吸毒(例如,Ary,Tildesley,Hop,&Andrews,1993;Fagan&Najman,2005;Windle,2000),以及攻击和犯罪(例如,Bank,Patterson,&Reid,1996;Slomkowski,Rende,Conger,Simons,&Conger,2001)。除了少数例外(例如,Rowe&Gulley,1992;Slomkowski等,2005),大多数关于兄弟姐妹相似性的研究(例如,Ary等人;Brook,Whiteman,Gordon,&Brook,1990;D‘Amico&Fromme;Fagan&Najman;Windle)都引用了社会和观察性学习过程,如建模和模仿,作为对兄弟姐妹相似性的事后解释(即,正向联系等同于建模)。一些研究人员通过检查被提出用来调节社会学习机制的相关因素,间接地测试了建模假设。例如,对青少年吸烟行为和性行为的兄弟姐妹相似性的研究表明,兄弟姐妹相似性在温暖和亲密程度较高的二人组中最为明显(Rowe&Gulley,1992;Slomkowski等人,2005)。其他研究人员发现,年龄相近的同性兄弟姐妹在饮酒方面的相似性最大(例如,Boyle,Sanford,Szatmari,Merikangas,&Offord,2001;Trim,Leuthe,&Chassin,2006)。…
Abstract: This study examined the nature and correlates of adolescents' perceptions of sibling influence. Participants included 2 siblings (firstborn age M = 17.34; second-born age M = 14.76 years) from 191 maritally intact families. Adolescents' perceptions of sibling influence were measured via coded responses to open-ended questions about whether their sibling had an influence on them. Analyses revealed that older and younger siblings reported different patterns of influence. Differentiation influence and being a role model were more prevalent for firstborns, whereas modeling and modeling plus differentiation were more prevalent for second-borns. First- and second-borns' reports of influence were linked differentially to their relational and personal qualities. Discussion focuses on the need to refine the measurement of sibling influence processes. Key Words: adolescents, modeling, sibling deidentification, sibling differentiation, sibling influence, sibling relationships. Interest in sibling relationships has grown exponentially over the past 20 years. A foundation for this interest is the idea that siblings play a central role in each other's lives and development. For example, research on children's and young adolescents' time use shows that siblings spend more time with each other than with either parents or peers outside of school hours (e.g., McHale & Crouter, 1996). Through their everyday companionship, as well as in their roles as providers of social experience, as combatants, as models, and even as foils for one another, siblings are thought to influence one another in ways that make them alike and different from each other. In the face of these multiple influences, however, most studies examining sibling influences have failed to directly measure influence processes. Instead, sibling influence processes are invoked as post hoc explanations for observed patterns of sibling similarities and differences. The goals of this study were to (a) document first- and secondborn siblings' perceptions of how their brother/sister influenced them and (b) connect those perceptions of influence to the family contexts that may promote or suppress their operation. Social and Observational Learning and Sibling Similarities Most research on sibling influences has looked for and found evidence of processes leading to sibling similarities. For example, similarities have been demonstrated in adolescent siblings' risky and deviant behaviors such as childbearing and sexual behavior (e.g., East, 1998), health risk behaviors (D'Amico & Fromme, 1997), smoking (e.g., Bard & Rodgers, 2003; Slomkowski, Rende, Novak, Lloyd-Richardson, & Niaura, 2005), alcohol and drug use (e.g., Ary, Tildesley, Hops, & Andrews, 1993; Fagan & Najman, 2005; Windle, 2000), and aggression and delinquency (e.g., Bank, Patterson, & Reid, 1996; Slomkowski, Rende, Conger, Simons, & Conger, 2001). With few exceptions (e.g., Rowe & Gulley, 1992; Slomkowski et al., 2005), most studies (e.g., Ary et al.; Brook, Whiteman, Gordon, & Brook, 1990; D'Amico & Fromme; Fagan & Najman; Windle) of sibling similarity have invoked social and observational learning processes such as modeling and imitation as post hoc explanations for sibling similarities (i.e., positive associations equate to modeling). A few researchers have indirectly tested modeling hypotheses by examining relational factors that are proposed to moderate social learning mechanisms. For example, research on adolescent sibling similarities in smoking behaviors and sexual activities revealed that sibling similarity was most evident in dyads who were high in warmth and closeness (Rowe & Gulley, 1992; Slomkowski et al., 2005). Other researchers have found that sibling similarities in alcohol use were greatest for same-gender sibling pairs who were close in age (e.g., Boyle, Sanford, Szatmari, Merikangas, & Offord, 2001; Trim, Leuthe, & Chassin, 2006). …
