  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Spousal violence : an exploration of the interrelationships of fundamentalist protestant discourse, women's economic dependency and violent conflict in marital relationships Author: Goetz, Kathryn W. Violence within marital dyads is a problem with deep historic roots in American culture. Although the family is idealized as a safe and loving haven from a cruel world, this ideal is often not achieved by many couples. This study develops an integrated theoretical perspective that combines feminist theory and social exchange theory to examine levels of domestic conflict. A regression model was constructed to test the hypothesis that identification with fundamentalist Protestant religious and moral beliefs and the economic dependence of women were factors contributing to high levels of violent conflict within marital dyads. The study analyzed data gathered from a probability sample of 3421 married couples. The dependent variable, marital conflict, was operationalized using a modified version of the Conflict Tactics Scale (Straus, 1979). This variable was regressed on the independent variables: Protestant fundamentalist religiosity, religious affiliation, Protestant moral/family values, wives' economic dependency and the economic, social and demographic variables cited in the literature for their relationship to dyadic violence. The study found that identification with a fundamentalist Protestant religious discourse was not significantly related to increased levels of dyadic violence. Agreement with the basic moral/family values of the fundamentalist Protestant discourse were significantly related to lower levels of conflict. Women's economic dependency was also significantly related to lower levels of conflict. These data support the conclusion that women who identify with conservative values and acquiesce to the male power structure by choosing a more traditional life-course of economic dependency are less likely to be involved in high conflict or violent marriages.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Parental attitudes, home environment, and the cognitive ability of Korean kindergarten children Author: Cho, Bokhee This study examined the relationships among authoritarian parental attitudes, home environments, parental attitudes toward the children's freedom, and the cognitive performances of kindergarten children. Socioeconomic status of the family and sex of child and parent differences were also examined. Subjects consisted of 73 pairs of Korean parents and their children. There were 42 boys and 31 girls ranging in age from four to six years. The Authoritarian Family Ideology, the Cognitive Home Environment Scale, and the Attitude Toward the Freedom of Children—Scale II were used for the parental measurements. To assess children's cognitive ability, the Kodae-Binet Intelligence Test for Korean Children was administered. Data were analyzed using Peason Product Moment correlations, analysis of variance, and multiple regression analysis. Findings obtained appeared that father's authoritarian attitudes were negatively related to children's cognitive abilities. However, the hypothesis of a negative correlation between authoritarian maternal attitudes and intellectual ability was not confirmed. It was also found that the characteristics of home environments were highly related to children's intellectual performances, and that mother's cognitive home environment scores accounted for 13 percent of the variation in I.Q. scores. The findings of this study did not reveal a significant negative relationship between authoritarian parental perceptions of children's freedom and children's intellectual test performances. In addition, there was a trend of a significant relationship between the family's socioeconomic status and I.Q. scores. Further, this study revealed important sex differences in both child and parent. While boy's cognitive ability was predicted by the paternal authoritarian attitudes, girl's ability was predicted by three of the mother's variables; maternal authoritarian attitudes, mother's perceptions of children's freedom, and mother's cognitive home environments. Finally, the relationship between parental attitudinal differences and their children's cognitive performance was investigated in this study. It was found that parents of higher attitudinal differences had children with higher I.Q. scores.
