We used data from the Add Health study to estimate the effects of parents' marital status and relationship distress on daughters' early family formation transitions. Outcomes included traditional transitions (marriage and marital births) and nontraditional transitions (cohabitation and nonmarital births). Relationship distress among continuously married parents was not related to any outcome. Offspring with single parents and remarried parents had an elevated risk of nonmarital births and nonmarital cohabitation. Offspring with remarried parents with a high-distress relationship had an elevated risk of early marriages and marital births. These results, combined with analyses of mediating variables, provide the strongest support for a modeling perspective, although some support also was found for a perspective based on escape from stress.
我们使用来自“青少年健康纵向研究”(Add Health)的数据,来估计父母的婚姻状况和关系困扰对女儿早期家庭组建转变的影响。结果包括传统转变(结婚和婚内生育)和非传统转变(同居和非婚生育)。持续婚姻关系中的父母之间的关系困扰与任何结果均无关联。单亲家庭和再婚家庭的子女非婚生育和非婚同居的风险较高。父母关系高度紧张的再婚家庭的子女早婚和婚内生育的风险较高。这些结果,结合中介变量分析,为一种建模视角提供了最有力的支持,不过也为基于摆脱压力的视角提供了一些支持。
