Abstract:A partir du modèle de la solidarité intergénérationnelle de Bengston (Bengston & Roberts, 1991), on a étudié, chez 265 femmes entre deux âges vivant en Allemagne, les interrelations entre leurs valeurs familiales, leur perception de qualité de la relation avec leurs parents, le soutien qu’elles disent leur apporter et recevoir de leur part, ainsi que leur appréhension de l’entraide entre les générations. On s’est aussi demandé si l’aide apporté aux parents et la réciprocité perçu étaient en rapport avec la cha… Show more
“…As expected and already shown for a larger sample of the ''Value of Children'' Study (Schwarz et al 2005), interdependence was positively related to the provision of emotional and instrumental support. However, daughter's attachment was only related to the provision of instrumental support.…”

“…For analyses predicting given support a third control variable was used: interdependence that was an indicator of family obligations (five items, example: ''It is important to me to respect decisions made by my family.''). Interdependence was positively related to the provision of support in previous studies (Schwarz et al 2005).…”

“…There is rich evidence for the importance of family obligations in providing support and for a positive association between the affective qualities of the relationship, such as closeness, warmth, and positive evaluation of the other person (admiration), and the exchange, that is receiving and providing support (e.g., Ikking et al 1999;Rossi and Rossi 1990;Schwarz et al 2005;Silverstein et al 1995). However, given the life-long ties between parents and children, earlier experiences within the parent-child relationship presumably are relevant for the arrangements in adulthood (Cicirelli 1983; see also Rossi and Rossi 1990;Bengtson 1996).…”
Section: Intergenerational Exchange Of Supportmentioning
This study investigated the relation between the internal representation of attachment and the perception of the actual exchange of intergenerational support within 100 dyads of adult daughters and their elderly mothers in Germany. Results showed relations between the daughters' preoccupation and avoidance with their perception of receiving emotional support from their parents and providing instrumental support to them. No relations were found between the mothers' attachment and the support they provided to the daughters. These results are discussed with respect to different conditions for emotional and instrumental support of adult daughters and their elderly mothers, and a relationship specific approach to attachment.

“…This does not, however, imply disconnected family ties over the life course; on the contrary, family relationships may still be based on emotional closeness and solidarity (Bengtson, 2001;Schwarz et al, 2005). In contrast, in the collectivistic context, marriage and children (the establishment of a new family) means the continuation of the existing family network by an extended in-group.…”

abstract:The aim of this study is to test the general hypothesis that parents and their children systematically differ with respect to the perception of their relationship as described by the literature on the 'intergenerational stake'. To this end, the study compared 100 dyads of adult daughters and elderly mothers from Indonesia and Germany. Mothers and daughters were interviewed with respect to their value orientations and their evaluation of the present mother-daughter relationship. The results demonstrated that the 'intergenerational stake' hypothesis could be replicated for different aspects of the relationship quality in the German sample as compared to the Indonesian sample. Besides a pattern of motherdaughter differences consistent with the 'intergenerational stake hypothesis', two groups with different patterns were found: one group in which daughters perceived the relationship as more positive than mothers and another group characterized by low maternal self-disclosure. Culture and mothers' collectivism were associated with the assignment to the latter group. The results are interpreted in a culture-informed theoretical framework of intergenerational relations.
“…However, cultures differ with respect to conceptualizing adulthood and related developmental tasks of adults; for instance, as far as responsibilities of adult children for their ageing parents are concerned (Schwarz, Albert, Trommsdorff, & Mayer, 2005). Also, social changes affect the gender role, and thereby have an impact on the family system including the conditions for child care and parent-child relations (e.g., Rehel, 2014).…”
