- 요약The present dissertation investigates the psychological factors underlying fertility intentions and parental adjustment during the transition to parenthood in contemporary China. Grounded in the Theory of Planned Behavior, the research aims to fill critical gaps in understanding motivational and relational factors that influence childbearing decisions, particularly in a rapidly changing sociocultural context. The project comprises two empirical studies. The first paper introduces the Prospective Parenthood Questionnaire (PPQ), a multidimensional instrument developed to measure Anticipation/Excitement about Parenthood, External Pressure to Have Children, and Confidence in Parenting. Across three studies involving individuals at different stages of parenthood, the PPQ demonstrated robust psychometric properties and revealed significant gender differences in fertility motivations. The second paper utilizes dyadic data from 117 Chinese couples expecting their first child to explore the interaction between attachment representations and gender ideology during the transition to parenthood. Employing the Actor-Partner Interdependence Model, findings highlight the impact of attachment security, adherence to patriarchal gender ideology and their interaction on couples' perception of the prospective parenthood, and postpartum psychological adjustment. Gender differences were detected, as well as dyadic effects. Together, these studies offer theoretical and empirical contributions to research on the transition to parenthood, emphasizing the interplay of cultural, relational, and individual factors in shaping reproductive behavior. The dissertation provides implications for family policy, mental health support, and gender equity in parenting roles.
