  • Family structure materialism and compulsive consumption
    Journal of Consumer Research, 1997
    Co-Authors: Aric Rindfleisch, James E Burroughs, Frank Denton
    Abstract:

    Despite the rapid and dramatic changes in the structure of the American Family over the past thirty years (e.g., divorce, single parenting), consumer researchers have largely neglected the issue of how alternative Family forms influence consumer behavior. The authors' initial inquiry into this area finds that young adults reared in disrupted families are more materialistic and exhibit higher levels of compulsive consumption than young adults reared in intact families. Furthermore, they show that the relationship between Family structure and compulsive consumption is partially mediated by both the amount of resources available within the Family and the degree of Family Stress. The authors also find that the impact of Family disruption on Family Stress is moderated by socioeconomic status. They conclude by proposing an agenda for future research that considers the antecedents, processes, and consequences of alternative Family structures as they relate to consumer behavior.

  • work and Family Stress and well being an examination of person environment fit in the work and Family domains
    Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes, 1999
    Co-Authors: Jeffrey R Edwards, Nancy P Rothbard
    Abstract:

    Research indicates that work and Family are significant sources of Stress. However, this research has underemphasized the cognitive appraisal process by which work and Family generate Stress. This study used person-environment fit theory to examine how the comparison of work and Family experiences to the person's values relates to Stress and well-being. Using data from 1758 employees, we assessed fit regarding autonomy, relationships, security, and segmentation for both work and Family, and examined the relationship of fit with work and Family satisfaction, anxiety, depression, irritation, and somatic symptoms. In general, well-being improved as experiences increased toward values and improved to a lesser extent as experiences exceeded values. Well-being was also higher when experiences and values were both high than when both were low. These relationships were generally strongest for within-domain fit and well-being (i.e., work fit and work satisfaction, Family fit and Family satisfaction), and several relationships were moderated by work and Family centrality.

  • covid 19 Family Stress and domestic violence remote work isolation and bargaining power
    Social Science Research Network, 2020
    Co-Authors: Louisphilippe Beland, Abel Brodeur, Joanne Haddad, Derek Mikola
    Abstract:

    We investigate the impacts of COVID-19 on domestic violence and Family Stress. Our empirical analysis relies on a unique online survey, Canadian Perspective Survey Series, that allow us to disentangle the mechanisms through which COVID-19 may affect Family Stress and domestic violence. We find no evidence that employment status and work arrangements are related to higher self-reported levels of Family Stress and violence in the home due to confinement, suggesting that remote working on a large scale does not lead to Family violence.In contrast, we find that the inability to meet financial obligations and maintaining social ties significantly increase reported Family Stress and domestic violence. These findings are consistent with two alternative mechanisms: social isolation and decreased bargaining power for women. Last, we provide suggestive evidence that receiving financial relief does not mitigate the effect of financial worries on domestic violence and Family Stress. We conclude that targeted programs supporting victims of domestic violence may be more effective.

  • paternal history of depression or anxiety disorder and infant father attachment
    Infant and Child Development, 2018
    Co-Authors: Marian J Bakermanskranenburg, Nicole Lucassen, Anne Tharner, Peter Prinzie, Frank C Verhulst, Joran Jongerling, Marinus H Van Ijzendoorn, Henning Tiemeier
    Abstract:

    Paternal depression and anxiety are important risk factors for a problematic parent–child relationship and subsequent child development. We explored the association between paternal history of depression and anxiety disorder and infant–father attachment security, taking into account the possible mediating roles of sensitivity and perceived Family Stress. In a sample of 94 infant–father dyads, a structured diagnostic interview and a questionnaire on Family Stress were administered during pregnancy. Paternal sensitivity was observed using the Ainsworth coding scales, and infant–father attachment was observed in the strange situation procedure during a lab visit at 14 months. Linear regression models were used to examine the association of father's lifetime depression or anxiety with the continuous scales for infant–father attachment security and disorganization. Father's history of depression or anxiety disorder was not significantly related to infant–father attachment security in the total sample. Interestingly, daughters of fathers with a history of depression or anxiety had higher scores on attachment security than daughters of fathers without this diagnosis. Perceived Family Stress and paternal sensitivity were not significant mediators. We discuss these unexpected findings, suggesting alternative mechanisms for how paternal vulnerability to depression or anxiety may be associated with the infant–father attachment relationship. Highlights: We examine the association between paternal history of depression and anxiety disorder and infant-father attachment security. In 94 infant-father dyads, a structured diagnostic interview was administered and infant-father attachment was observed in the Strange Situation Procedure. Daughters of fathers with a psychiatric history had higher scores on attachment security. Mechanisms of paternal vulnerability are discussed.

  • unequal in opportunity equal in process parental sensitivity promotes positive child development in ethnic minority families
    Child Development Perspectives, 2012
    Co-Authors: Judi Mesman, Marinus H Van Ijzendoorn, Marian J Bakermanskranenburg
    Abstract:

    Most studies on parental sensitivity are based on Western samples, and the cross-cultural applicability of this construct has been subject to debate. This article reports on a systematic literature review on observational studies of parental sensitivity in ethnic minority families with young children. It shows that parental sensitivity is generally lower in ethnic minority families than in major- ity families. The evidence suggests that the main cause for this difference is Family Stress due to socioeconomic dis- advantage. The review found little evidence for cultural explanations. Most importantly, the review shows that parental sensitivity is related to positive child development in ethnic minority families. Interventions attempting to improve ethnic minority children's well-being should focus on both reducing Family Stress and enhancing parental sensitivity.
