我们研究了父母婚姻质量的影响，无论是结婚前和孩子出生后，对儿童依恋和相关结构。39名有1-3岁子女的父母（20个家庭）在两个时间段（婚前和出生后3-5年）完成了婚姻满意度、冲突和沟通的测量。父母还完成了对孩子出生后的Q排序描述，得出了依恋安全性、社交性和依赖性的分数。结果表明，父母的婚姻关系的婚前和产后指标与儿童功能。对于母亲来说，高满意度，低冲突，高沟通质量（由父亲评定）与儿童安全的依恋和依赖。对于父亲来说，更高水平的婚前冲突和更低水平的沟通质量与依赖性呈正相关。这些发现表明，婚前和孩子出生后父母关系的质量与孩子的功能有关。
We examined the impact of parental marital quality, both before marriage and after the birth of a child, on child attachment and related constructs. 39 parents (20 families) with children between the ages of 1-3 years completed measures of marital satisfaction, conflict, and communication at 2 time periods (premarriage and postbirth, 3-5 years later). Parents also completed Q-sort descriptions of their child at postbirth, yielding scores for security of attachment, sociability, and dependency. Results indicated that both premarital and postbirth indices of the parent's marital relationship were related to child functioning. For mothers, high satisfaction, low conflict, and high communication quality (rated by fathers) were related to child security of attachment and dependency. For fathers, higher levels of premarital conflict and lower levels of communication quality were positively related to dependency. These findings indicate that the quality of the parents' relationship before marriage as well as after the child is born is related to child functioning.
