Abstract
This article reviews recent research (1999 - 2009) on the effects of parenthood on wellbeing. We use a life course framework to consider how parenting and childlessness influence well-being throughout the adult life course. We place particular emphasis on social contexts and how the impact of parenthood on well-being depends on marital status, gender, race/ethnicity, and socioeconomic status. We also consider how recent demographic shifts lead to new family arrangements that have implications for parenthood and well-being. These include stepparenting, parenting of grandchildren, and childlessness across the life course.
摘要
本文回顾了近期（1999 - 2009年）关于为人父母对幸福感影响的研究。我们运用生命历程框架来思考为人父母和无子女状态如何在整个成年生命历程中影响幸福感。我们特别强调社会背景，以及为人父母对幸福感的影响如何取决于婚姻状况、性别、种族/民族和社会经济地位。我们还考虑了近期的人口结构变化如何导致新的家庭安排，这些安排对为人父母和幸福感都有影响。这些包括继父母养育、孙辈养育以及一生中的无子女状态。
