The association of marital satisfaction with parenting burden and quality of the parent?child relationship was examined in 91 married mothers and fathers of co-residing adolescents and adults with autism spectrum disorders. Within-couple differences between mothers and fathers in how child characteristics related to these parenting experiences were also evaluated. Multilevel modeling was used to control for the dependency in couple data. Marital satisfaction was an important predictor of parenting experiences, particularly for fathers. Mothers reported feeling closer to their son or daughter than did fathers. Fathers' parenting experiences were more strongly impacted by child characteristics than were mothers' parenting experiences. Results emphasized the connection between the marital relationship and parenting experiences and overlapping but unique experiences of mothers and fathers.
本研究调查了 91 对共同抚养自闭症谱系障碍青少年和成人的已婚父母,探讨了婚姻满意度与育儿负担和亲子关系质量之间的关系。还评估了夫妻双方对子女特征与这些育儿体验之间关系的差异。多水平模型用于控制夫妻数据的相关性。婚姻满意度是育儿体验的重要预测因素,尤其是对父亲而言。母亲报告说与儿子或女儿的关系比父亲更亲密。与母亲的育儿体验相比,父亲的育儿体验受子女特征的影响更大。研究结果强调了婚姻关系与育儿体验之间的联系,以及父母双方重叠但又独特的体验。
