Which gestures of affection are shared across generations in our family?

The focus here is family warmth and strictness as recalled across generations.

Who was studied?

871 university students, their parents and grandparents in Spanish families

Age / stage: Three generations

Read with three questions

  1. How did the authors investigate family warmth and strictness as recalled across generations?
  2. Whose report describes the parent, the child and the outcome, and where might those reports differ?
  3. How did the authors distinguish generational change from differences in what adults remember?

Keep the limits in view

Comparing students, parents and grandparents at one time cannot untangle historical change from age and recall differences.
