亲子关系中付出与关系满意度的研究综述

A Review on Giving and Relationship Satisfaction in Parent-Child Relationships

付出作为发展和维系亲密关系的重要行为,广泛存在于日常生活中。目前大多数研究者主要关注于亲密关系中的恋人关系,但亲密关系中的朋友关系和亲子关系同样值得关注。本文从亲子关系的角度入手,主要梳理总结近年来国内外学者有关父母对子女付出行为的产生原因,以及付出行为发生后对亲子间关系满意度的影响。研究发现,不同的付出动机和共有取向对关系满意度影响截然相反,主动付出会促进关系满意度,被动付出会损害关系满意度。目前研究对在亲子关系中父母的付出及满意度相对关注,未来可以针对子女对于父母付出的看法和感受进行研究,展开有关亲子关系间的双向研究调查。

Giving, as an important behavior for developing and maintaining intimate relationships, is widely present in daily life. Most researchers have focused on the relationship between lovers in intimate relationships, but friendships and parent-child relationships in intimate relationships also deserve attention. In this paper, we focus on the causes of parents’ giving behaviors to their children and the effects of giving behaviors on parent-child relationship satisfaction. It is found that different giving motives and shared orientations have opposite effects on relationship satisfaction, with active giving promoting relationship satisfaction and passive giving undermining it. The current study focuses on parents’ giving and satisfaction in parent-child relationships, and future research can be conducted to investigate children’s perceptions and feelings about parental giving and to investigate two-way relationships between parents and children.
