Understanding how families navigate differences in attitudes about controversial social and political issues is increasingly important in contemporary society. This project examines how contentious social issues emerge and create conflict in family life, as well as identifies family members’ strategies for addressing these issues. This project uses a case study approach to understand these issues, by focusing on how families with a socially marginalized family member navigate family relationships with family members from different generations. Findings from this research promote understanding about how broader cultural issues shape intergenerational family relationships. Findings also suggest potential interventions to facilitate intergenerational dialogue and promote social support within families. This research project examines how age, generational context, and family role (e.g., grandparent, parent, grandchild) shape how family members interact with one another and address conflict. This project involves collecting qualitative interviews with 90 people in 30 family systems, where each of the three family members are from different family roles and generational contexts. Data collected provide insight about how multiple family members from the same family system understand and address conflict. Supplementary activities are aimed to enhance research capacity at the MSI institution.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

在当代社会，了解家庭如何处理有争议的社会和政治问题的态度差异越来越重要。该项目研究了有争议的社会问题如何出现并在家庭生活中造成冲突，以及确定家庭成员解决这些问题的战略。该项目采用案例研究的方法来理解这些问题，重点是有社会边缘化家庭成员的家庭如何处理与不同世代家庭成员的家庭关系。这项研究的结果促进了对更广泛的文化问题如何塑造代际家庭关系的理解。调查结果还表明，潜在的干预措施，以促进代际对话，促进家庭内的社会支持。本研究项目探讨了年龄、代际背景和家庭角色（例如，祖父母，父母，孙子）塑造家庭成员如何相互作用和解决冲突。该项目涉及收集对30个家庭系统中90人的定性访谈，其中三名家庭成员中的每一个都来自不同的家庭角色和代际背景。收集的数据提供了关于来自同一家庭系统的多个家庭成员如何理解和解决冲突的见解。补充活动旨在提高MSI机构的研究能力。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
