Influence of the Family, The

Synopsis

Explores the effects of complex family interactions on child development. Defines bi-directional influences within the family and shows how different family structures - dual-income, single-parent, and reconstituted - affect children. Explains the two dimensions of the ‘circumplex model’ of parenting. Looks at how Baumrind and Elder each classified parental discipline and investigates how birth order and age span affect sibling rivalry.
