Religious Affiliation, Religiosity, and Attitudes Toward Same-Sex Parenting
Legalizing marriage and facilitating access to parenting for same-sex couples are controversial subjects in many countries. Based on a survey of 1,861 French heterosexual students, this study examined the effects of gender, methods gays and lesbians use to become parents, religious affiliation (Catholic vs. no religious affiliation), and religiosity (in Catholic participants) on attitudes to same-sex parenting. The participants ranged in age from…

Attitudes des étudiants hétérosexuels envers le mariage des personnes de même sexe et l’homoparentalité en France

Pour combler cette lacune, une enquête européenne sous forme de questionnaires a été élaborée et réa…
Marital status, social support, and depressive symptoms among lesbian and heterosexual women
The current study investigated social support and relationship status (single, dating-but-not-cohabiting, cohabiting, domestic partnership/civil union, married) as predictors of depressive symptoms among lesbian and heterosexual women. The study aimed to determine whether the documented higher rates of depressive symptoms among lesbians compared to heterosexual women could be accounted for by lesbians' reduced access to, or in many cases exclusio…
Urdu Translation of the California Inventory for Family Assessment for Use in Pakistan
In the absence of indigenously developed valid measures to study constructs related to marriage and family in Pakistan, the most economical way is to translate and adapt an instrument that has already been validated in other cultures. The purpose of this study was to translate into Urdu language and pilot test a measure of dyadic relationship behavior, the California Inventory for Family Assessment (CIFA; Werner & Green, 1999-2008). Brislin's (19…
Will Marriage Matter? Effects of Marriage Anticipated by Same-Sex Couples
The current study used an online survey to explore the anticipated impact of legalized marriage on partners in same-sex couples living in California. These data were gathered prior to the California Supreme Court decision in May 2008 legalizing same-sex marriage, which held sway for 5 months before California Proposition 8 eliminating same-sex marriage was passed by a voter referendum. In addition to administering three quantitative measures (Gay…

Structured interviews were conducted with one of the partners in 40 couples that had conceived children via surrogacy. The interviews consisted of closed- and open-ended questions examining changes in fathers' careers; lifestyles; couple relationships; relations with family of origin; friendships; self-estee…
Filipino masculinity and psychological distress
Different Storks for Different Folks
When gay and lesbian couples decide to become parents, they are unique as a group in always requiring the involvement of a facilitating other: a donor, surrogate, or (in the case of adopted or foster children) birth parents. This clinical paper explores common psychological and social challenges gay and lesbian couples face when using alternative reproductive technologies to attain parenthood. Between the wish and the actuality of being at home w…

A comparison of stepfamilies with and without child-focused problems
Stepfamilies in therapy for a child-focused problem were compared to those without such a problem and not in therapy. Differences were found in reciprocity within the stepparent-stepchild relationship, satisfaction with the stepparent's role, level of stepfamily conflict, and degree of stepfamily expressiveness. Results are discussed in terms of current research and clinical implications
