The proposed research uses a within-family design to explore how characteristics mothers' and fathers' work and adolescents' personal characteristics are linked to differential family socialization experiences of adolescent siblings. We focus on characteristics of both parents' work (job autonomy, job stress, and work-related resources and demands) and how these are linked to two aspects of family dynamics: (1) parents' childrearing strategies (time spent with children, discipline, monitoring of youths' activities, maturity demands, and emotional support); and (2) family roles and relationships (sex roles, marital conflict, sibling relationship). To begin to disentangle the roles of parent characteristics and parental style from "child effects" we compare the experiences and psychosocial functioning of two adolescent siblings in each family. The sample will include 200 dual-earner families with two adolescent siblings. Data will be collected at three timepoints: when firstborn siblings are approximately 15 years of age and secondborns, approximately 13 years of age, and twice again at annual intervals. This design allows us to address three longitudinal issues: (1) the extent of continuity and change in siblings' differential family experiences; (2) the extent to which families exhibit differential treatment (via comparisons of siblings experiences at the same point in time) versus consistent treatment (via comparisons of siblings' experiences when they are roughly the same age); (3) the work/family conditions underlying different trajectories in adolescent siblings' psychosocial functioning. Data collection will involve home interviews in which parents and adolescents report separately about parents' work, family experiences and relationships, parent and adolescent personal characteristics and adolescent psychosoclal functioning and a series of 7 telephone interviews in which adolescents and parents report on their daily family activities (chores, parent-child shared activities, parental monitoring). The proposed five-year study will illuminate the roles of parental work and family dynamics in adolescent socialization. In addition, using multivariate family profile analysis (a within-family approach), we will examine similarities and differences in the experiences and outcomes of adolescent siblings in contrasting family ecologies.

拟议的研究使用家庭内的设计，以探讨如何 母亲和父亲的工作和青少年的个人特点 特征与家庭社会化差异有关 青少年兄弟姐妹的经历。 我们专注于两者的特点 父母的工作（工作自主性，工作压力，与工作相关的资源， 需求）以及这些需求如何与家庭动态的两个方面联系起来：（1） 父母的育儿策略（与孩子在一起的时间，纪律， 监测青少年的活动，成熟的要求，和情绪 支持）;（2）家庭角色和关系（性别角色，婚姻 冲突，兄弟关系）。 开始理清 父母的特征和父母的风格从“儿童效应”，我们比较 两个青少年兄弟姐妹的经历和心理社会功能， 每个家庭。 样本将包括200个双职工家庭， 兄妹将在三个时间点收集数据： 兄弟姐妹大约15岁，第二个，大约 13岁，每年两次。 这种设计允许 我们要解决三个纵向问题：（1）连续性的程度， 兄弟姐妹差异性家庭经历的变化;（2） 哪些家庭表现出不同的待遇（通过比较兄弟姐妹 在同一时间点的经验）与一致的治疗（通过 比较兄弟姐妹在大致相同年龄时的经历）; (3)不同发展轨迹背后的工作/家庭条件 青少年兄弟姐妹的社会心理功能 数据收集将 包括家庭访谈，父母和青少年分别报告 关于父母的工作，家庭经历和关系，父母和 青少年个性与青少年心理社会 功能和一系列7个电话采访，其中青少年 父母报告他们的日常家庭活动（家务，亲子 分享活动、家长监督）。 拟议的五年研究将阐明父母工作的作用 以及青少年社会化中的家庭动力学。 此外，使用 多变量家庭概况分析（家庭内方法），我们将 审查经验和成果的异同， 青少年兄弟姐妹在不同的家庭生态。
