Family Processes in One-Parent, Stepparent, and Intact Families: The Child's Point of View
Abstract
In a study of the effects of divorce and remarriage on the adjustment and development of children, primary school children (n = 172) and adolescents (n = 170) reported on processes in three types of families: mother-custody one-parent, mother-custody stepparent, and intact two-parent. Children reported similar levels of support and punishment from mothers, regardless of family type. Compared with children in intact families, children in one-parent families reported less father support, less father control, less father punishment, more autonomy, more household responsibility, more conflict with siblings, and less family cohesion. Stepfathers were said to provide less support, control, and punishment than biologicalfathers in intact families, although stepfather involvement was positively associated with the number of years stepfamilies had been together.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
