Parental Discord vs. Family Structure: Effects of Divorce on the Self-Esteem of Daughters.
Long, Barbara H.
Journal of Youth and Adolescence, v15 n1 p19-27 Feb 1986
The effects of family structure and parental discord on the self-esteem of 199 female undergraduates were investigated. Family structure and happiness ratings were substantially related, with those separated rated as less happy. Parental discord appeared to lower the self-esteem of daughters, whereas separation of parents did not. (Author/LMO)
