Enhancing potentials for research on post-separation families using the Growing Up in Germany panel study
Objective: This study presents the "Post-Separation Family" (PSF) module within the panel study "Growing Up in Germany" (German title: Aufwachsen In Deutschland: Alltagswelten [AID:A]) and discusses its contribution to providing information on diverse post-separation family constellations in Germany. Background: Rates of separation and divorce are persistently high in Western societies, and post-separation families are increasingly diverse and co…
Dyadic expectations of cooperation and support in the transition to parenthood
Objective The purpose was to examine dyadic (in)congruent expectations of first‐time expectant parents regarding future coparental cooperation, caregiving responsibilities, and partner support, and explore how gendered assumptions and structural factors (e.g., parental leave) shape these expectations. Background The transition to parenthood involves major psychological, relational, and practical changes. Although previous research has emphasized …
Exploring coping strategies among adolescents during Covid ‐19 and war displacement
Adolescence is a critical period for developing coping capacities, yet global crises like the COVID-19 pandemic and war displacement impose unprecedented stressors that can overwhelm existing resources. This study qualitatively explored and compared how adolescents in Germany (N = 20 experiencing pandemic lockdown, aged 11-16; N = 25 Ukrainian refugees experiencing displacement, aged 12-18) coped with these distinct adversities. Drawing on an int…
Early Insights into Intergenerational Education Mobility and Emotional Problems during the Transition to Secondary School in Germany
Social inequalities in education due to early tracking in the German school system have been widely discussed, but little is known about the role of emotional problems at this critical point in children’s educational careers. This paper examines whether emotional problems prevent intergenerational upward mobility among children at the transition from primary to secondary school and investigates subsequent changes in emotional problems among four …

Resolving relationship dissolution—What predicts emotional adjustment after breakup
Relationship dissolution is a critical life event individuals have to cope with. Factors like relationship duration and relationship quality or having a new partner are likely to affect how people recover emotionally from a separation, which is linked to long‐term adjustment. However, prospective evidence on the role of these factors is scarce. Hence, this study aims to investigate predictors of emotional recovery following relationship dissoluti…
High rates of stability in post-separation care arrangements
Three years into the pandemic
Purpose For the past three years, the German longitudinal COPSY ( CO VID-19 and PSY chological Health ) study has monitored changes in health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and the mental health of children and adolescents during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods A nationwide, population-based survey was conducted in May–June 2020 (W1), December 2020–January 2021 (W2), September–October 2021 (W3), February 2022 (W4), and September–October 2022 (W5)…
Linking maternal psychopathology to children's excessive crying and sleeping problems in a large representative German sample—The mediating role of social isolation and bonding difficulties
Attaining self‐regulation is a major developmental task in infancy, in which many children show transient difficulties. Persistent, clinically relevant difficulties in self‐regulation include excessive crying or sleeping disorders. Many families with affected children are burdened with multiple psychosocial risk. This suggests that regulatory problems are best conceptualized as the maladaptive interplay of overly burdened parents and a dysfunctio…
Parenting by mothers in immigrant families from Poland, Russia and Turkey in Germany
Even if families in migration contexts have been the subject of an increasing amount of attention in migration research in the recent years, there is a noticeable knowledge deficit with regard to current parenting practices and socialization goals of immigrant families living in Germany. This is particularly striking since child-rearing is of central importance for children’s development and their educational pathways. This paper seeks to fill th…
Elternsein in der Corona-Pandemie
Eltern standen während der COVID-19-Pandemie vor vielfältigen Herausforderungen. Dieser Beitrag untersucht anhand des pairfam-Panels für 609 Mütter und 339 Väter Veränderungen im Erleben in der Elternrolle zwischen 2019 und Sommer 2020 und prüft mögliche Risikofaktoren für ein vermehrtes Belastungs- und Inkompetenzerleben. Bei Müttern und Vätern nahm Hilflosigkeit in der Elternrolle zwischen den Messzeitpunkten zu, während das Gefühl, den Bedürfn…
Profiles of Maternal Well-Being in Germany
A higher share of parents practices shared physical custody (SPC) upon separation and SPC parents tend to be better educated, more affluent, and less conflict-ridden. This could indicate that SPC parents may be buffered from disparities in well-being that were documented among other post-separation parents. Using latent profile analysis, we identified four distinct profiles of maternal well-being across different life domains. SPC mothers were in…
The Intensification of Parenting in Germany
Drawing on the international discourse on the intensification of parenting and new data from Germany, this paper aims to contribute to a better understanding of the unique challenges that parents face in the 21st century. We used data from the survey "Parenthood Today", which was conducted in 2019 to examine parents' views on parenting in Germany. The data comprised standardized interviews with 1652 mothers and fathers. We focused on three dimens…
Post-Separation Physical Custody Arrangements in Germany
Most children continue to live with their mother after a divorce or separation, yet paternal involvement in post-separation families has increased substantially in many Western nations. This shift has contributed to a growing share and more diverse set of post-separation parents opting for shared physical custody (SPC), which typically means that children alternate between the parental residences for substantive amounts of time. Profiling the cas…
Fall From Grace
The COVID-19 pandemic has substantially affected young people's social and emotional life. Based on longitudinal data provided by 843 adolescents (57.3% female) of the German Family Panel (pairfam), we investigated effects of extraversion on changes in loneliness and depressiveness between 2018 and 2019 and the first German COVID-19 lockdown in the first half of 2020. Findings of latent change modeling show that highly extraverted adolescents exp…
Kindliches Wohlbefinden in unterschiedlichen Familienformen
Im Kontext wachsender Scheidungsraten wurden dem kindlichen Wohlbefinden in Stief- und alleinerziehenden Familien in den letzten Jahrzehnten viel Aufmerksamkeit geschenkt. Die Heterogenität von Stieffamilien wurde dabei allerdings weitgehend vernachlässigt. Basierend auf Daten des repräsentativen Surveys „Aufwachsen in Deutschland: Alltagswelten“ (2009, N = 2144) vergleicht die vorliegende Studie das selbst berichtete Wohlbefinden (SDQ) von Kinde…
Beratungs- und Unterstützungsangebote für Paare vor, während und nach einer Trennung bzw. Scheidung
Chronische partnerschaftliche Konflikte, Scheidung oder Trennung der Eltern gehören zu den wichtigsten innerfamiliären Risikofaktoren, die die kindliche Entwicklung belasten und mit dem Entstehen kindlicher psychischer Störungen verbunden sind. Geeignete Interventionen sind daher notwendig, um eine Begrenzung oder sogar Beilegung der elterlichen Konflikte zu ermöglichen. Die verschiedenen Interventionen lassen sich einteilen in solche, die vor, w…
Changes in employment and relationship satisfaction in times of the Covid-19 pandemic
Families have been hit hard by the COVID-19 pandemic and its associated lockdown, but barely any research has been conducted yet, investigating how COVID-19-related stressors - and, specifically, disruptions in established employment arrangements - affected couples' relationship quality. To account more comprehensively for such non-monetary costs of the COVID-19 pandemic, the present study investigates whether changes in partners' employment situ…

Effects of Family Structure and the Experience of Parental Separation
Large numbers of studies, mostly from the U.S., have addressed the effects of parental separation and divorce, pointing to disadvantages of children and adolescents growing up in separated families. However, evidence on this topic varies across countries and is limited for Germany. Using longitudinal data from waves 1 and 3 of the German Family Panel pairfam, we investigated differences in adolescents' well-being by comparing stable nuclear famil…

Parental Separation and Adolescents' Felt Insecurity with Mothers
This study investigates effects of living in nuclear, separated single mother, or stepfather families on adolescents' relationship to their mothers. Focusing on adolescents' felt insecurity toward mother, effects of family type are expected to be mediated by economic pressure and impaired family dynamics. Subsamples from East (n= 220) and West Germany (n= 273) allow a comparison of relevant processes according to contextual conditions. Although n…

Adolescents' Individuation in East and West Germany
This study investigates whether parental separation and living with a stepfather affects children's and adolescents' individuation in relation to their mothers differently in East and West Germany. Effects of family type are assumed to be mediated through financial hardship and impaired family dynamics. A comparison of path models for youth (ages 9 to 19) from East ( n = 220) and West Germany ( n = 273) evidences only a few differences between bo…
Family income loss and economic hardship
Income loss leads to lower family integration, which in turn makes adolescents more sensitive to evaluation by peers. This can result in lower self-esteem and an inclination to act against common rules and norms
Youth in a changing context
Specific differences in family structure and family life between the former GDR and FRG, as well as current changes due to the unification process, are outlined to illustrate the role of families in linking the sociopolitical and economic changes to adolescent development

Methoden und Ergebnisse der quantitativen Kindheits- und Jugendforschung
Wahrend die Jugendforschung auf eine lange Tradition der Theorienbildung und empirischer Forschungsaktivitaten zuruckblicken kann, hat sich ihr die sozialwissenschaftliche Kindheitsforschung erst in jungerer Vergangenheit beigesellt. Zwar waren Kinder im Rahmen entwicklungspsychologischer und erziehungswissenschaftlicher Fragestellungen schon lange Zielgruppe und Teilnehmer empirischer Studien, doch fehlte bis in die 1980er Jahre hinein der stark…
