Two studies were conducted to explore the effect of parental sex on well-being due to parenthood. Study 1 analyzed the sixth wave of the World Values Survey data. The results indicated that parents were happier than their respective childless peers. However, the effect of motherhood was significantly higher than that of fatherhood. Furthermore, Study 2 analyzed the data from 354 single-child parents in China. The results showed that perceived parent-child facial resemblance moderated the sex difference in well-being. Specifically, in the high parent-child facial resemblance group, both fathers and mothers showed high levels of well-being; however, in the low parent-child facial resemblance group, the well-being level of mothers was higher than fathers. These results supported the renovated pyramid of needs and the hypothesis of paternal uncertainty.
进行了两项研究以探讨父母性别对为人父母幸福感的影响。研究1分析了世界价值观调查数据的第六波。结果表明,父母比各自没有孩子的同龄人更幸福。然而,母亲身份的影响显著高于父亲身份。此外,研究2分析了来自中国354名单亲父母的数据。结果表明,感知到的亲子面部相似度调节了幸福感的性别差异。具体而言,在亲子面部相似度高的组中,父亲和母亲都表现出较高的幸福感;然而,在亲子面部相似度低的组中,母亲的幸福感水平高于父亲。这些结果支持了需求更新金字塔和父系不确定性假说。
