The family routines inventory: Theoretical origins

Child, parent and family factors as predictors of adjustment for siblings of children with a disability

“…Siblings from families reporting consistent and regular family routines had fewer adjustment difficulties than siblings from families reporting fewer routines. This is consistent with research indicating that regular family routines are associated with good adjustment outcomes for children (Boyce et al . 1983; Turnbull & Ruef 1996; Fiese & Wamboldt 2000).…”

The Role of Family Routines in the Intergenerational Transmission of Depressive Symptoms between Parents and their Adolescent Children

“…In the current study, fewer family routines was associated with higher IL-6 levels in youths and showed a trend-level association with worse emotion regulation, in line with the proposal that less predictable family behaviors may undermine structure and regularity and relate to depression-relevant affective and immunologic processes (Abramson et al, 1978; Boyce et al, 1983). …”

Consistency matters: Consistency in the timing and quality of daily interactions between parents and adolescents predicts production of proinflammatory cytokines in youths

“…More consistent day-to-day interactions with parents may engender greater psychological predictability within youths' home life, resulting in reduced experiences of stress. This would reflect the cross-species phenomenon that greater situational predictability is associated with less physiological and psychological responses to stress (Dess, Linwick, & Patterson, 1983;Tiggemann & Winefield, 1987) and would likewise be consistent with theoretical models of the psychological effects of family consistency (e.g., Boyce, Jensen, & James, 1983;Dickstein, 2002). These findings also parallel work documenting that less chaos in families related to re- Note: sr 2 , semipartial r 2 .…”
