To determine whether or not responses to the Child's Report of Parental Behavior Inventory (CRPBI) would yield similar factors for children living in divorced families and for children living in married families, responses to the 56-item six-scale version of the CRPBI were obtained from 29 children living with their divorced mothers and from 30 children living with their married parents. All children were between seven and 11 years of age. Socioeconomic characteristics of the two types of families were similar except for income. Each child completed the inventory for both the mother and the father. Scale totals for each family structure and sex of parent were intercorrelated separately and subjected to a principal axis factor analysis with Varimax rotation. Three factors emerged for children's reports of married mothers, married fathers, and divorced fathers; however, two factors emerged for children's reports of divorced mothers. While the unique factor structure observed for children's reports of divorced mothers may be a function of the instrument's being more valid for reports of parental behavior by children living with married parents, alternative explanations were discussed. Results of the study appear to lend empirical support to Weiss' theory of the structure and functioning of single-parent households.
为了确定儿童对父母行为量表(CRPBI)的回答是否会为离异家庭的孩子和已婚家庭的孩子产生相似的因素,我们从29名与离异母亲生活在一起的孩子和30名与已婚父母生活在一起的孩子那里获得了对56项六分量表版本CRPBI的回答。所有孩子年龄都在7至11岁之间。除了收入之外,这两种家庭类型的社会经济特征相似。每个孩子都为母亲和父亲完成了该量表。分别对每种家庭结构和父母性别的量表总分进行相互关联,并进行具有方差最大化旋转的主成分因子分析。对于已婚母亲、已婚父亲和离异父亲的孩子报告出现了三个因素;然而,对于离异母亲的孩子报告出现了两个因素。虽然在离异母亲的孩子报告中观察到的独特因素结构可能是该工具对与已婚父母生活在一起的孩子的父母行为报告更有效的结果,但也讨论了其他解释。该研究结果似乎为韦斯关于单亲家庭结构和功能的理论提供了实证支持。
