- Abstract:
- Family relationships play a key role in the development of the individual and society, forming basic values and norms of behavior. Currently, there is a shift in cultural traditions, which qualitatively affects the usual models of family relationships. The problem of the study is expressed in the analysis of the influence of the cultural context on family relationships and the family roles performed. The purpose of the study is to determine the psychological characteristics of family relationships and roles in different cultural contexts.
The study involved 126 respondents, including 60 representatives of Uzbek nationality (30 women and 30 men) and 66 Russians (33 women and 33 men). The following diagnostic material is used: «Role Expectations of Partners» (REP); PARI «Parental Attitudes Questionnaire»; «Measuring Attitudes in a Married Couple»; 4. Marital Satisfaction Questionnaire (MSQ). To identify differences between the groups, the Mann-Whitney U-criteriom and Spearman's rank correlation were used.
According to the study, in Uzbek culture, special attention is paid to traditional values, religious beliefs, and social norms that influence family roles. A comparative analysis with Russian culture revealed differences in approaches to role differentiation and expectations from family members. A study of parental attitudes in Uzbek and Russian families revealed pronounced cultural differences in approaches to upbringing. Uzbek parents are characterized by more traditional and strict methods, with an emphasis on authority and limited discussions of sexual topics with children. In Russian families, there is a desire for partnership with children, active emotional interaction and limitation of the impact of external factors.
The study deepens the understanding of the specifics of cultural influence on family relationships and the roles of spouses. The results can be used in the formation of family education programs considering the cultural context.
