The effect of parental Holocaust trauma on their children's Jewish identity and Holocaust-related ideation was investigated by comparing survivors' children with children of American Jews. Parental communication style as a possible mediating factor was also assessed. Children of survivors showed significantly more Holocaust ideation than did those of American Jews, but did not differ appreciably on measures of Jewish identity. Parental communication style was associated with ethnic identification, suggesting its mediating influence on the transgenerational effects of parental trauma.
通过比较大屠杀幸存者的子女与美国犹太裔子女,研究了父母的大屠杀创伤对其子女犹太身份认同和与大屠杀相关观念的影响。还评估了父母的沟通方式作为一个可能的中介因素。与美国犹太裔子女相比,幸存者的子女表现出显著更多的大屠杀相关观念,但在犹太身份认同的测量上没有明显差异。父母的沟通方式与种族认同相关,表明其对父母创伤的代际影响具有中介作用。
