And the more brothers and sisters, the better:Each additional sibling a person has — up to about seven — reduces thelikelihood of divorce by about 2 percent. It isn’t just the basic difference between beingan only child and having siblings that mattered, the Ohio State Universityresearchers found. They had expected that the experience with personalrelationships that siblings provide would help in a marriage. “But we found that the real story appears to behow family dynamics change incrementally with the addition of each sibling,”said Donna Bobbitt-Zeher, co-author of the study and an assistant professor ofsociology at OSU’s Marion campus. “More siblings means more experience dealing withothers, and that seems to provide additional help in dealing with a marriagerelationship as an adult.” Bobbitt-Zeher and OSU sociology professor DougDowney conducted the study with Joseph Merry, an OSU graduate student. Theyused demographic data and interview information collected from about 57,000people through the General Social Survey, a national sociological survey, atvarious points between 1972 and 2012. The study results are being presented today at themeeting of the American Sociological Association in New York City. The researchers analyzed other variables that could play arole in future divorce, including education, socioeconomic status, familystructure, race, age and religion. “When we added in all of these controls, nothingtook away the relationship we saw between siblings and later divorce,”Bobbitt-Zeher said. “None of these other factors explained it away.” Downey said that, while the study can’t explainthe protective effect of siblings, it points to good reasons for the findings. People who grow up with siblings tend to develop negotiatingskills, and they have to consider other people’s points of view. “The more siblings you have, the moreopportunities you have to practice those skills,” Downey said. 7777777777777777777777777777777777777777777777777777777777777777777777777 Could Growing Up with More SiblingsDecrease Your Chances of Divorce? Kathleen Lees k.lees@scienceworldreport.com First Posted: Aug 13,2013 11:45 AM EDT Could having more siblings guarantee protection againstdivorce as an adult? Not necessarily, but a new study suggests that it can'thurt. According to researchersfrom Ohio State University, the difference between having no siblings andhaving one or two isn't that much in terms of divorce. However, each additionalsibling (up to about seven) can reduce the likelihood of divorce by about 2percent. But when you compare children from large familiesto those with only one child, there is a meaningful gap in the probability ofdivorce, said Doug Downey, co-author of the study and a professor of sociology at theuniversity, via a press release . We expected that ifyou had any siblings at all, that would give you the experience with personalrelationships that would help you in marriage, said Donna Bobbitt-Zeher,co-author of the study and an assistant professor of sociology at Ohio State'sMarion campus, via the release. But we found that the real storyappears to be how family dynamics change incrementally with the addition ofeach sibling. Having more siblings means more experience dealing with others,and that seems to provide additional help in dealing with a marriagerelationship as an adult. Researchers looked at datafrom the General Social Survey, which involved interviews with about 57,000adults from across the United States at 28 points between 1972 and 2012.Results showed that each additional sibling up to the seventh mark helped slashthe chances of divorce later in life. They also analyzed avariety of variables, includingthe role in future divorces, such as education, socioeconomic status, familystructure, race, age at marriage, whether the respondents had children, genderrole attitudes and religious affiliation. Results showed thatkindergarten teachers were more likely to rate students with siblings as havingbetter social skills than only children starting in 2004. While there tend to be many benefits of having lesschildren during economic struggles, the study shows the negative aspects ofhaving smaller families. Results for the study werediscussed at the 108th Annual Meeting of the American Sociological Association. http://www.scienceworldreport.com/articles/8797/20130813/growing-up-more-siblings-decrease-chances-divorce.htm 7777777777777777777777777777777777777777777777777777777777777777777777777777777 Siblings Decrease Divorce Risk Having brothers andsisters decreases the risk of divorce as an adult, new research suggests. The nationwide study alsofound that protective effect increases with the number of siblings a personhas. Researchers found that the risk of divorce reduces by 2 percent for eachadditional sibling. While the difference betweenhaving no siblings and having one or two isn't very dramatic, researchers saidthere is a significant gap when comparing children from large families to thosewith only one child. Surprisingly, the differencewasn't just about having siblings. Instead, it was the number of siblings thatmade the real impact, according to researchers. We expected that if youhad any siblings at all, that would give you the experience with personalrelationships that would help you in marriage, co-researcher DonnaBobbitt-Zeher, an assistant professor of sociology at Ohio State's Marioncampus, said in a news release. But we found that thereal story appears to be how family dynamics change incrementally with theaddition of each sibling. Having more siblings means more experience dealingwith others, and that seems to provide additional help in dealing with amarriage relationship as an adult, she explained. The study used data from57,000 adults from across the United States at 28 points between 1972 and 2012. The findings revealed thateach additional sibling provided additional protection from divorce. However, having more than seven siblings did not provide additionalprotection. Researchers noted that this beneficial effect of siblings wasseen among Americans of all generations. Siblings help protectagainst divorce among adults now just as much as they did 50 years ago,Bobbitt-Zeher said. Even after accounting forfactors like parental education, socioeconomic status, family structure, race,age at marriage, whether respondents had children, gender role attitudes andreligious affiliation, the link between siblings and later divorce still heldstrong. Researchers say there aremany reasons to explain the protective effect of having siblings. Growing up in a familywith siblings, you develop a set of skills for negotiating both negative andpositive interactions. You have to consider other people's points of view,learn how to talk through problems. The more siblings you have, the moreopportunities you have to practice those skills, co-author Doug Downey, aprofessor of sociology at The Ohio State University, said in a news release.That can be a good foundation for adult relationships, includingmarriage. Previous studies found thatkindergarten students with siblings were rated as having better social skillsthan only children. However, other studies found that only children or thosewith fewer siblings had better grades in school. Researchers said the lateststudy wanted to look at the effect of siblings later in life and to see how it impactsmore major life events. Evaluations of socialskills and grades aren't trivial, but divorce is a more concrete, consequentialevent in a person's life. This is the first study to look at how siblingsaffect such a consequential event in adulthood, Downey said. The findings will bepresented at the 108th Annual Meeting of the American Sociological Association. http://www.counselheal.com/articles/6357/20130813/siblings-decrease-divorce-risk.htm 777777777777777777777777777777777777777777777777777777777777777777777777777777777 Growing up with more siblings could reduce divorce risk by Sharon Jayson, USA TODAY Peoplewith more brothers and sisters are less likely to divorce than only children orthose with one or two siblings, suggests a new study that looks at the effectsiblings may have on divorce in adulthood. Eachadditional sibling a person has (up to about seven) reduces the likelihood ofdivorce by 2%, finds the analysis, based on data from 57,061 adults in theGeneral Social Survey, collected between 1972 and 2012. Thereare a lot of other factors that affect divorce that are more important than howmany siblings you had. However, we're finding that the number of siblings is afactor, says Ohio State University sociologist Doug Downey, a co-authorof the study. It is being presented Tuesday at a meeting of the AmericanSociological Association in New York City. Each additional siblingreduces their chances of divorce a little bit. Theauthors suggest that siblings further the development of social skills usefulin navigating marriage. However,others who study divorce and family size say the study - while interesting - isfar from definitive. Peoplefrom large families may be more family oriented, says sociologist S. PhilipMorgan, director of the Carolina Population Center at the University of NorthCarolina-Chapel Hill. He says the data from the General Social Survey aresomewhat problematic for the issue of divorce. I'mnot yet convinced. he says. The theory is interesting and plausiblebut not overpowering. DemographerPaul Amato of Pennsylvania State University in University Park, Pa., agreesthat the premise is an interesting idea. It'sthe first study I know of to have looked at this, but in the social sciences,you shouldn't get too excited about a single study, he says. Itwould have to be replicated multiple times before you can have too much faithin it. Althoughthis research doesn't suggest that only children should worry about theirmarriages, Morgan says he's not sure the underlying theory is correct - thatonly children are at a disadvantage. We'renot in the 1950s, where (an only child) might live in a household and mom mightstay home and you'd interact all day with an adult. No kids do thatanymore, he says. There are lots of opportunities to gaininterpersonal skills. Astudy of only children and adult sociability published two years ago in theJournal of Family Issues found that adults who grew up without siblingsdo not appear to be different from others in their patterns or frequency ofinteraction across a wide variety of social interactions, such as withneighbors and coworkers. Nor do adults who grew up without siblings differ fromothers in their engagement in other social activities ... Thus, in this studywe find little evidence of long-term effects of growing up withoutsiblings. LaurenSandler, 38, of Brooklyn, N.Y., an only child and the mother of a 5-year-olddaughter, says school is the great equalizer. As much as the culture wouldtell us we need to have siblings to learn how to manage conflict, all the dataactually tell us that school does that just fine, says Sandler,author of the book One and Only, out earlier this summer. Unless you'reraising only children in a situation away from other kids, they will learnthose skills with friends and classmates throughout their lives. http://www.wbir.com/health/article/284262/3/Growing-up-with-more-siblings-could-reduce-divorce-risk
