本研究主要目的是描述新手父母生育前後婚姻滿意度的變化,及探討生育前後婚姻滿意度與親職參與和夫妻親密互動的關聯性,並檢視配偶親職參與對夫妻親密互動頻率及婚姻滿意度的影響。本研究採用台北市新婚夫妻結婚三年的縱貫性資料,包括新婚第二年成為新手父母有 50 對夫妻,第三年成為新手父母有 21 對夫妻,有效樣本數為 71 對新手父母。研究結果顯示:(1)新手父母生育後的婚姻滿意度皆比生育前較低;(2)新手爸爸生育前的婚姻滿意度對其親職參與頻率有顯著的影響,而新手媽媽生育前的婚姻滿意度與其親職參與則無顯著關聯;(3)新手爸爸的親職參與對夫妻親密互動頻率及生育後的婚姻滿意度無顯著影響,但新手媽媽的親職參與會透過夫妻親密互動頻率而間

接影響其生育後的婚姻滿意度;(4)新手媽媽的親職參與會直接影響新手爸爸生育後的婚姻滿意度;也會透過新手爸爸對夫妻親密互動的知覺,間接影響新手爸爸生育後的婚姻滿意度。從行動者效果來看,本研究支持親子系統和婚姻系統存在某種程度的溢出效應;從伴侶效果來看,新手媽媽扮演重要角色,新手媽媽親職參與對於新手爸爸知覺夫妻親密互動頻率、婚姻滿意度有所影響。

關鍵詞:夫妻親密互動、婚姻滿意度、新手父母、親職參與。

關鍵字
夫妻親密互動、婚姻滿意度、新手父母、親職參與
