“…We found that older children missed their peers less and this could probably be due to the diffused use of media amongst adolescents during the last decade, regardless of COVID-19 lockdown. In addition, family environment appeared as fundamental for sociality; we found indeed that the presence of siblings reduced the lack of friends, confirming that siblings play a major role in human relationships and that children often perceive them as one of the most important people in life (Szymańska, 2020 ). Children of families with divorced parents missed their friends less, too; however, this could be discussed according to socialization problems and high restraint that may occur in such children (Liu et al, 2000 ), sometimes making them entangled in closer relationships with the single parent and/or developing internalizing attitudes (Cohen & Weitzman, 2016 ).…”

“…Socioeconomic disadvantaged situations could also result in impossibility to attend remote classes (Agnelli Foundation, 2020 ), increased anxiety (Vazirani & Bhattacharjee, 2020 ) and violence against children (Cluver et al, 2020 ). The presence of siblings, instead, can affect the availability of resources and spaces for remote learning, but also have an impact on socialization (Szymańska, 2020 ). Family status (i.e.…”

We conducted a cross-sectional study to compare the impact of social distancing and lifestyle changes that occurred during Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) lockdown on children and adolescents with and without Neurodevelopmental Disorders (NDDs). An online questionnaire was administered in order to investigate the effects of NDD condition, socio-demographic status, familiar/home environment and COVID-19 exposure on their lives during a two months period of social isolation. We used logistic regression, focusing on five endpoints (remote learning, lifestyle, stress/anxiety, sociality, scolding) to define the extent of these effects. Most questions were paired up to parents and children, to verify the occurrence of agreement. 8305 questionnaires were analyzed, 1362 of which completed by NDDs and 6943 by controls. Results showed that the presence of a NDD, compared to controls, had a significant impact on: Remote Learning (i.e. subjects with NDDs experienced more difficulties in attending online classes and studying), Sociality (i.e. subjects with NDDs missed their schoolmates less), Scolding (i.e. subjects with NDDs were scolded more often) and Anxiety (i.e. subjects with NDDs were perceived by their parents as more anxious). Substantial agreement between parents and children arose from questions concerning Remote learning, Lifestyle and Scolding. The current study actually points out that having a NDD gives account for a stronger influence on school performance and on behavioral and psychological aspects, during a two months lockdown. Such results may provide useful information to governments and school authorities on how carrying through supportive strategies for youth affected by NDDs.

“…Wprowadzenie W systemie rodzinnym wyjątkowy typ relacji interpersonalnej łączy osoby tworzące rodzeństwa (por. Szymańska, 2020;Walęcka-Matyja, 2018). Do najważniejszych cech tej relacji zalicza się pierwotny charakter oraz długotrwałość.…”

Cel pracy stanowiło określenie związków między wymiarami wybaczanie i wdzięczność a jakością relacji interpersonalnej rodzeństw w okresie wczesnej dorosłości, sprawdzenie czy stanowią one predyktory relacji interpersonalnej rodzeństw oraz, czy i w jaki sposób wymiary relacji interpersonalnej rodzeństw łączą się z motywami wybaczania. Uczestnikami badań było 200 osób, znajdujących się w okresie wczesnej dorosłości (M=24; SD=3,27), posiadających dorosłe rodzeństwo. Badania przeprowadzono w Polsce. Zastosowano następujące narzędzia badawcze: Kwestionariusz Relacji Dorosłego Rodzeństwa (Walęcka-Matyja, 2014), Skalę Wybaczania (Charzyńska, Heszen, 2013), Kwestionariusz Powodów Przebaczania (Noworol, 2016), Kwestionariusz Gratitude Questionnaire (Kossakowska, Kwiatek, 2014) oraz ankietę. Rezultaty badań wskazały na występowanie dodatniego związku między wdzięcznością a wymiarem relacji z rodzeństwem określanym jako Ciepło. Zmienna wybaczanie nie łączyła się w sposób istotny statystycznie z wymiarami relacji interpersonalnej dorosłych rodzeństw. Odnotowano występowanie istotnych, przebiegających w oczekiwanym kierunku związków między wymiarem relacji interpersonalnej rodzeństw Ciepło i powodami wybaczania. Predyktorem czynnika Ciepło w relacji dorosłych rodzeństw okazała się zmienna wdzięczność. Zmienna wybaczanie nie objaśniała żadnego z wymiarów z relacji interpersonalnej rodzeństw.

“…Однак лише сиблінги з менш позитивними та інтенсивними стосунками повідомляють про зниження домінантності. Тобто, сиблінги з тісними інтенсивними стосунками можуть не стати більш рівноправними у підлітковому віці (Lindell & Campione-Barr, 2017 (Szymańska, 2020). Серед сестер такі якості сиблінгових стосунків як опозиційність (компонент конфліктності у стосунках) та інтимність (компонент теплоти стосунків) виступають предикторами самотності в сімейному становищі в період ранньої дорослості (Walęcka-Matyja, 2016).…”

Relationships and individual psychological features of siblings are one of the least studied areas of family psychology. The purpose of this study was to determine the characteristics of interpersonal relationships of sisters, the connection of these relationships with the order of sisters’ birth, other probable family factors and the ability of sisters to coquetry. Methods: 1) Osgood's method of semantic differential was used to identify attitudes towards herself and her sister; 2) the form of growth factors in the family developed by the authors, and 3) questionnaire of women’s adaptive potential in relationship with men (questionnaire of women coquetry) to measure the ability to coquetry of O.L. Lutsenko, V.V. Volchanova. The form collected data about women’s age, education, social status, presence and number of children, marital status, presence of divorce in the parental family, religious affiliation and the degree of religion significance in life (open questions). Questions with a 5-point Likert scale were about: satisfaction with physical condition (health status), satisfaction with financial status, satisfaction with social relations, spiritual satisfaction, the degree of attachment to a sister, father, mother; degree of support from the father, mother; degree of competition with a sister in childhood - up to 18 years old; the degree of envy (unfair luck) towards the sister; degree of loyalty to free discussion of sexual topics in the family; the degree of participation in the teaching of coquetry by a sister, mother, others. As a result, the adaptive and compensatory role of female coquetry to increase the financial position of women was confirmed. In conditions of low welfare, lack of parental support, the degree of coquetry increases. Mother also teaches her daughter more coquetry in the case of divorce. Women value learning to be coquettish: a sister rates her sister higher if she teaches her to be coquettish. The highest level of coquetry is associated with the perception of herself as a strong woman, i.e. as a resource. The assessment of a sister’s activity was found to be included in various relationships with other family factors, which indicates the importance of this characteristic in the relationship of female siblings. When sisters have the greater age difference, they treat each other better, that was explained by the reduction of competition between them. The older sister traditionally performs more functions in the family, because of which she may feel more envious of her sister, jealous of her mother, and consider herself as more active. At the same time, older sisters treat younger ones better, evaluate them higher than their younger counterparts.
