Marital Disruption and Adult Children's Perception of Their Siblings' Help to Elderly Parents.

Cicirelli, Victor G.

Family Relations, v33 n4 p613-21 Oct 1984

Surveyed 120 adult children from maritally disrupted situations and 145 adult children in intact marriages about their own and siblings' help to parents. Adult children in maritally disrupted situations gave about the same amount of help as siblings, while those with intact marriages gave more help than siblings. (JAC)
