This study explored the relationships between young adults and their grandparents and great-grandparents. A convenience sample of fifty-two college students, who had at least one living grandparent and great-grandparent, completed a questionnaire that assessed their interactions with their grandparents and great-grandparents. The respondents engaged in more frequent contact and activities with their grandparents than with their great-grandparents. They also perceived their grandparents as having a more defined role and being more influential in their lives than great-grandparents. Discussion centers on potential personal and demographic factors that may have influenced the respondents' perceptions of and interactions with their great-grandparents.
本研究探讨了年轻人与其祖父母及曾祖父母之间的关系。一个由52名大学生组成的便利样本完成了一份问卷，这些学生至少有一位在世的祖父母和曾祖父母，问卷评估了他们与祖父母及曾祖父母的互动情况。与曾祖父母相比，受访者与祖父母的联系和活动更为频繁。他们还认为祖父母在自己生活中的角色更明确，影响力也比曾祖父母更大。讨论集中在可能影响受访者对其曾祖父母的认知及互动的潜在个人因素和人口统计学因素上。
