Abstract

Background

Caregiver relationships are associated with adolescent subjective well-being. Yet, little is known about the contributions of father-adolescent relationship quality to well-being including perseverance, connectedness, and happiness or the specific contributions of father-adolescent relationship quality to these outcomes after accounting for covariates.

Objective

This study aimed to understand how father-adolescent relationships and school connectedness interact with one another when positive adolescent functioning are the outcomes.

Methods

Adolescents (N = 2,509; Mage = 15.5; 51.8% male; Black and African American (47.9%), Hispanic (24.8%), and white (17.7%) participating in the FFCWBS provided cross-sectional data. A series of hierarchical regression analyses were conducted to examine direct associations between father-adolescent relationship quality and each of the three adolescent subjective well-being outcomes (perseverance, connectedness, and happiness), and to evaluate the moderating role of adolescent biological sex in these associations. Covariates included race, household income, father’s residential status, the adolescent’s relationship with the mother and school connectedness.

Results

Regressions showed that father-adolescent relationship quality was significantly associated with each well-being outcome beyond the contributions of demographics, mother-adolescent relationships, and school connectedness, and had similar associations with the outcomes by sex.

Conclusions

Our conclusions highlight the priority of including and retaining fathers in research and interventions.

青少年的主观幸福感:父亲的独特贡献
摘要 背景 照顾者关系与青少年的主观幸福感有关。然而,人们对父子关系质量对幸福感(包括毅力、关联性和幸福感)的贡献,以及在考虑了协变量后父子关系质量对这些结果的具体贡献知之甚少。 本研究旨在了解当青少年的积极功能成为结果时,父子关系和学校联系是如何相互作用的。 方法 参与 FFCWBS 的青少年(人数 = 2,509;年龄 = 15.5;51.8% 为男性;黑人和非裔美国人(47.9%)、西班牙裔(24.8%)和白人(17.7%)提供了横截面数据。我们进行了一系列分层回归分析,以检验父亲与青少年关系质量与三种青少年主观幸福感结果(毅力、连通性和幸福感)之间的直接关联,并评估青少年生理性别在这些关联中的调节作用。协变量包括种族、家庭收入、父亲的居住状况、青少年与母亲的关系以及与学校的联系。 结果 回归结果显示,除了人口统计学、母亲与青少年的关系和学校联系的贡献外,父亲与青少年的关系质量与每个幸福结果都有显著的关联,并且与不同性别的结果有相似的关联。 结论 我们的结论强调了在研究和干预措施中纳入并留住父亲的优先性。

期刊介绍: Child & Youth Care Forum is a peer-reviewed, multidisciplinary publication that welcomes submissions – original empirical research papers and theoretical reviews as well as invited commentaries – on children, youth, and families. Contributions to Child & Youth Care Forum are submitted by researchers, practitioners, and clinicians across the interrelated disciplines of child psychology, early childhood, education, medical anthropology, pediatrics, pediatric psychology, psychiatry, public policy, school/educational psychology, social work, and sociology as well as government agencies and corporate and nonprofit organizations that seek to advance current knowledge and practice. Child & Youth Care Forum publishes scientifically rigorous, empirical papers and theoretical reviews that have implications for child and adolescent mental health, psychosocial development, assessment, interventions, and services broadly defined. For example, papers may address issues of child and adolescent typical and/or atypical development through effective youth care assessment and intervention practices. In addition, papers may address strategies for helping youth overcome difficulties (e.g., mental health problems) or overcome adversity (e.g., traumatic stress, community violence) as well as all children actualize their potential (e.g., positive psychology goals). Assessment papers that advance knowledge as well as methodological papers with implications for child and youth research and care are also encouraged.
