This paper investigates the relationship between parental divorce and the occurrence of depressive symptoms in adolescents, with a particular focus on the quality of parent-child relationships. We use data from the youth cohort (15-17 years old at the time of the first interview) of the first four waves of the Panel Analysis of Intimate Relationships and Family Dynamics (abbreviated as pairfam). Panel regressions models, such as fixedeffects models and so-called hybrid models are applied to analyze the causal effects of parental divorce. Our results confirm previous research, in particular from English-speaking countries, that parental divorce or separation increase depressive symptoms significantly. This effect is particularly relevant in high-conflict relationships between children and their mother and father, respectively, while in parent-child relations characterized by high levels of intimacy the negative effects are considerably reduced. Zusammenfassung Der vorliegende Beitrag untersucht mit aktuell verfügbaren Längsschnittdaten den Zusammenhang zwischen elterlichen Trennungen und der Depressivität von Jugendlichen. Hierbei werden insbesondere die zugrundeliegenden Beziehungsdynamiken zwischen Eltern und ihren Kindern berücksichtigt. Ziel ist es, mit aktuellen, repräsentativen Daten, die überwiegend aus dem angloamerikanischen Raum stammenden Ergebnisse zum Zusammenhang zwischen elterlichen Trennungen und der Depressivität von Jugendlichen für Deutschland zu untersuchen. Für die empirischen Analysen wird die Jugendkohorte des Beziehungs- und Familienpanels (pairfam) und hierbei die Daten der ersten vier Wellen aufbereitet. Es werden erstmals für den deutschen Kontext sowohl fixed-effects-Modelle als auch sogenannte Hybrid-Modelle gerechnet, um stärker unverzerrte, intraindividuelle Veränderungen zu erfassen. Die Ergebnisse bestätigen den Befund, dass eine elterliche Trennung während des Jugendalters trotz der hohen Verbreitung und allgemeinen Akzeptanz von Trennungen und Scheidungen die Depressivität von Jugendlichen signifikant erhöht. Dieser Befund trifft jedoch vor allem für konflikthafte Familienbeziehungen zu, während Beziehungen, die auf Intimität und Geborgenheit ausgerichtet sind, den Effekt der Scheidung deutlich reduzieren und eine erfolgreichere Anpassung bewirken.

“…As Raab (2017) shows for Germany, experiencing an alternative family structure (not living with both biological parents) up to the age of 18 is associated with earlier cohabitation and parenthood. Regarding gender differences, previous fi ndings for Germany are rather ambivalent (Berger 2009;Diekmann/Engelhardt 1995;Engelhardt 1998;Schulz 2009).…”

“…According to the economic deprivation theory, a parental divorce infl uences the economic situation of the parents and possibly leads to an earlier entry of adolescents into the labour market as well as to an earlier age at fi rst marriage, less commitment to intimate partners, and a higher prevalence of union dissolutions. In addition, socialization theory supposes that parental divorce is connected to a reduced control behaviour of parents and hence leads to earlier sexual contacts and earlier partnership formation (Berger 2009;Diekmann/Engelhardt 1995). In sum, the theory proposes that a parental divorce is linked to an acceleration in the childrens' own partnership and family formation process.…”

Social transitions are characterized by an increased heterogeneity in Western societies. Following the life course perspective, individual agency becomes central in shaping one’s life course. This article examines social transitions of adolescents using individual resource theory to explain differences of the timing of five transitions in partnership and family formation: the first sexual experience, the first intimate relationship, the first cohabitation, the first marriage, and the birth of the first child. Since little is so far known about how individual characteristics interact and influence the social transition to adulthood, we focus on the varying impacts of personal, social and socio-economic resources across the social life course. We use longitudinal data from the German LifE-Study, which focuses on the birth cohort of individuals born between 1965 and 1967. Using event history analysis, we find that the timing of the first sexual experience and first partnership transitions are mainly influenced by personal and social ressources, whereas socio-economic resources offer better explanations for the timing of entering marriage and parenthood. Most striking are the different explanatory models for women and men.

“…Due to the inancial dificulties and high stress levels that result from separation and divorce, children from broken homes are said to be more likely to leave the parental home and take on professional and private responsibilities at a younger age (Diekmann & Engelhardt, 1995;Engelhardt, 2002). After reaching adulthood, children of divorced parents marry younger (Diekmann & Engelhardt, 1995), often after spending less time and effort in choosing a partner (Berger, 2009). However, in interviews, they report doubt in their ability to maintain a harmonious relationship and hold less positive attitudes toward marriage (Gabardi & Rosen, 1993).…”

“…These expectations can operate as self-fulilling prophecies, shown by lower levels of commitment, which can in turn create conlicts (Beckh, Bröning, Walper, & Wendt, 2013). It becomes more dificult for them to resolve conlicts as they lacked the opportunity to learn effective behaviors for maintaining a relationship by observing their parents (Berger, 2009). As a result, people who grew up in broken homes have an elevated risk of divorce themselves (Amato & DeBoer, 2001) and generally have less positive attitudes towards romantic relationships and family (Beckh et al, 2013).…”

Generation Y: Do millennials need a partner to be happy?

Introduction: Empirical evidence on Ronald Inglehart's theory of value change shows that subsequent generations show a decline in values of physical and economic security (materialism) in favor of an increase in values of self-expression and autonomy (postmaterialism). Methods: We investigate in a pre-registered study whether Inglehart's theory also applies to partnership, such that millennials think less that they need a partner to be happy. We used data from the German Socio-Economic Panel (SOEP) study on 4540 17-year-olds from 16 birth cohorts. Results: Results show that adolescents' estimated importance of a romantic partner for personal happiness decreases on average with each subsequent birth cohort. Further signiicant predictors were socialization and relationship status of the parents, birth year of the father, as well as education and sex of the adolescent. Socioeconomic status and education level of the parents and birth year of the mother were not signiicant. Conclusions: Findings provide initial evidence that as society becomes more individualized, even personal happiness is increasingly seen as independent of signiicant others. Ronald Inglehart's theory of value change, however, seems to have only limited applicability as an explanatory model for this development.
