“…It is possible that there is an antagonistic relationship between the stepfather and stepchildren (Daly and Wilson 1988;Flinn 1988), which leads to reduced educational achievement or that this new marriage results in additional children, further reducing the investments given to children from the prior relationship compared to investments received if the mother remained unmarried. There is evidence that this is not an unusual trend, as researchers have documented the negative impact of stepfather presence on educational achievement in the United States (Biblarz and Raftery 1999;Keith andFinlay 1988, but see Beller andChung 1992), possibly due to stepfather conflict with stepchildren over the mother's resources (Biblarz and Raftery 1999).…”

“…A válással érintett családban felnövőknek egyrészt kevesebb lehetőségük van elsajátítani a sikeres házassághoz szükséges szerepeket és készségeket, másrészt a szüleiknél azt láthatták, hogy a házasság felbontása megfelelő kiút lehet egy boldogtalan kapcsolatból. A válás generációk közötti hatását több tanulmányban is bemutatták (Amato 1996, Bumpass -Martin -Sweet 1991, Keith -Finlay 1988. Keith és Finlay (1988) például a szülők családi állapotának többek között a gyermek későbbi válási valószínűségére való hatását vizsgálták.…”

“…A házasságkötéskor betöltött életkorra többen úgy utaltak mint a házasság felbomlásának egyik legjobb előrejelzőjére (Bumpass -Martin -Sweet 1991;Keith -Finlay 1988). A korai házasságot kötők kevesebb időt fordítanak a megfelelő partner keresésére, feltehetően kevésbé felkészültek a házassági szerepekre (Becker -Landes -Michael 1977, Booth -Edwards 1985.…”

“…One common hypothesis is that parents who divorce are significantly more likely to produce progeny who also show an increased propensity to experience ruptured marriages; this tendency becomes exacerbated when both partners have parents who experienced divorce themselves (Bumpass, Martin, and Sweet 1991;Feng et al 1999;Keith and Finlay 1988;Kulka and Weingarten 1979;Mueller and Pope 1977). In particular, daughters of divorced parents are more likely to divorce (Feng et al 1999); one large study found that the risk of divorce in the first five years of marriage increased 70 percent among daughters of divorced parents (Bumpass, Martin, and Sweet 1991).…”
