To understand levels of support for differences between families in terms of sexuality and mode of family formation across three countries.
Previous research has found that attitudes towards family diversity continue to improve over time, although differences remain.
Subjects were 1605 people living in Australia, the United Kingdom or the United States who completed a questionnaire which sought to explore levels of support for a diverse range of family forms and modes of family formation.
Religiosity, political leanings and beliefs about the importance of genetic relatedness were all correlated with level of support. Gender of participant was a predictor of level of support. Cluster analysis indicated three clusters (unsupportive, neutral and supportive) for level of support, for which both sexuality and parent status were predictors.
Findings highlight the normative status of reproductive heterosex, and demonstrate the considerable value accorded to genetic relatedness.
了解三个国家的家庭在性取向和家庭形成方式上存在差异的支持程度。
先前的研究发现,尽管存在差异,但人们对家庭多样性的态度仍在随着时间的推移而不断改善。
本研究的对象是来自澳大利亚、英国或美国的 1605 人,他们完成了一份调查问卷,旨在探索对各种形式的家庭和家庭形成方式的支持程度。
宗教信仰、政治倾向以及对遗传相关性重要性的看法都与支持程度相关。参与者的性别是支持程度的预测因素。聚类分析表明,支持程度存在三个聚类(不支持、中立和支持),性取向和父母身份都是预测因素。
研究结果突出了生殖异性恋的规范地位,并表明遗传相关性受到了相当大的重视。
