| 其他摘要 | It is an intrinsic criterion for the treatment of love and marriage, which not only directly influences individuals' choice of spouse, but also their commitment to future marital and family responsibilities and obligations (Ren, 2009). This study explores the intergenerational changes in the Tendency to marry and the Tendency to divorce and their influencing mechanisms through two studies with a total of nine sub-studies in social groups in a Chinese cultural context, from a cross-sectional and longitudinal analysis respectively.
Study 1 constructs a moderated chain mediating effect model based on social role theory and media information dissemination theory to explore the chain mediating role of gender roles and gender stereotypes in intimate relationships and the moderating role of negative media information exposure in the effect of birth year on Tendency to marry and divorce. The results of Study 1 showed that: (1) There were significant intergenerational differences in the Tendency to marry and a decreasing trend. (2) There were significant intergenerational differences in the Tendency to divorce and an increasing trend. (3) Gender roles and gender stereotypes in intimate relationships mediated the chain between birth year and Tendency to marry. (4) Gender roles and gender stereotypes in intimate relationships mediated the chain between birth year and Tendency to divorce, and (5) gender stereotypes in intimate relationships mediated the chain between birth year and Tendency to divorce. (5) Negative media exposure positively moderates the relationship between birth year and Tendency to marry, specifically, the more negative media exposure, the stronger the inverse relationship between birth year and Tendency to marry. (6) Negative media exposure positively moderates the relationship between year of birth and Tendency to divorce; specifically, the more negative media exposure, the stronger the positive relationship between year of birth and Tendency to divorce. (7) Negative media exposure did not have a moderating effect on the relationship between birth year and gender roles in intimate relationships, nor did it have a moderating effect on the chain mediating effect of birth year on the Tendency to marry and divorce through gender roles and gender stereotypes in intimate relationships.
Using longitudinal data analysis, Study 2 explores whether intergenerational differences regarding Tendency to marry and divorce arise from the generations themselves by recalling their own perceptions of Tendency to marry, Tendency to divorce, gender roles in intimate relationships, and gender stereotypes at ages 20, 30, 40, 50, and 60 (or not if they did not have them), respectively. The study explores whether the intergenerational differences in the Tendency to marry and divorce are due to generational differences or to changes in the subjects' own experiences and maturity. The longitudinal mechanisms by which roles in intimate relationships and stereotypes in intimate relationships affect the Tendency to marry and divorce were also explored. The following conclusions were drawn: (1) The Tendency to marry and divorce among the post-60s, post-70s, post-80s and post-90s all formed a stable view around the age of 30 and the Tendency to marry and divorce was significantly correlated at the 0.01 level across all generations at all ages, thus proving that the generational differences in the Tendency to marry and divorce come from the generations themselves rather than from changes in the evaluator's own maturity or experience. (2) The application of first- or second-order cross-lagged analyses demonstrated that the overall longitudinal mediating effect of gender roles and gender stereotypes in intimate relationships on the relationship between birth year and marriage (divorce) did not hold, i.e. that a causal effect between the two did not exist. However, there are temporal transmission effects for certain generations at certain ages.
This study examines the intergenerational variation in the Tendency to marry and divorce among the post-60s, post-70s, post-80s, post-90s and post-OOs. And it explores the role of gender roles and gender stereotypes in intimate relationships as a chain mediator in the relationship between birth year and Tendency to marry and divorce. It is also shown that exposure to negative media messages moderates the relationship between birth year and Tendency to marry and divorce. These studies then delve into the realm of longitudinal analysis, demonstrating that intergenerational differences in Tendency to marry and divorce arise primarily from the generations themselves, rather than from the evaluators' own experiences or changes in maturity, and that there is no longitudinal mediating effect of gender roles and gender stereotypes in intimate relationships on the relationship between birth year and Tendency to marry and divorce. Possible mechanisms in intergenerational variation in Tendency to marry and divorce are answered. A theoretical contribution to the study of intergenerational changes in Tendency to marry and divorce and a practical guide to research on its intervention.
At the same time the findings of this study can be applied to more areas, such as the developmental education of children, and both gender roles and gender stereotypes in intimate relationships in this study were shown to be formed in early youth, with both acting as chain mediating variables that directly and indirectly influence the Tendency to marry and divorce in adulthood, suggesting that the family education of children as well as adolescents and the views acquired in family life regarding gender roles and This suggests that both children's and adolescents' family education and the gender stereotypes acquired in family life have a significant impact on the Tendency to marry and divorce in adulthood. This has important theoretical and practical implications for the development and education of children and adolescents. |
