Patterns of marital change during the early childhood years: parent personality, coparenting, and division-of-labor correlates

Article Abstract:

A study was conducted to analyze patterns of marital change between husbands and wives after the birth of their firstborn sons. Correlation among parent personality, co-parenting and division-of-labor were also examined. Results indicated patterns on husband-love and wife-conflict events and that personality and marital interactions significantly influenced marital satisfaction. Findings also correlated increases in marital conflict with a spouse's failure to support the other's parenting efforts and objectives.

Coparenting, mother-infant interaction, and infant-parent attachment relationships in two-parent families

Article Abstract:

Coparenting behavior and the quality of mothers' parenting behavior were examined in relation to parents' perceptions of their child's attachment in 60 two-parent families with 11- to 15-months-old infants. Competitive coparenting was associated with mothers' and fathers' perception of a less secure parent-child attachment relationship whereas maternal responsiveness was associated with mothers' perception of a more secure mother-child attachment.
