This study examined the moderating effect of parental income on the association between parent-child coresidence and parental affect. Secondary analysis was conducted with data from the ORANJ BOWL panel, a representative sample of adults in New Jersey, aged 50 to 74 years ( N = 5,688). Results indicated that income had a significant moderating effect on the association between the adult child's residential status and parents' positive and negative affect. Among parents with coresident adult children, an observed decline in positive affect and rise in negative affect were amplified as parental income level increased, suggesting differential strains on parental well-being across income levels.
本研究考察了父母收入对亲子同住与父母情感之间关联的调节作用。利用来自新泽西州50至74岁成年人的代表性样本ORANJ BOWL面板的数据进行了二次分析(N = 5688)。结果表明,收入对成年子女居住状况与父母积极和消极情感之间的关联具有显著的调节作用。在与成年子女同住的父母中,随着父母收入水平的提高,观察到的积极情感下降和消极情感上升的情况会被放大,这表明不同收入水平对父母幸福感的压力存在差异。
