?:abstract
  • Although parents are acknowledged to be a part of their children's personality and narrative identity and to remain important across the lifespan, narrative personality research has not yet explored the spontaneous presentation of parents in life stories. Therefore this study examined longitudinally the place given to parents when crafting one's life narrative and how this changes with age. Furthermore, in contrast to prior studies, we focused on spontaneous mentions of parents. Method: We investigated how often parents are mentioned in life narratives of six age groups spanning from age 8 to 69, how the parental relationship is evaluated, whether narrators express understanding of their parents and if they respond to parental values. [Based on waves 1 to 3 of the MainLife Study] Results: People of all ages dedicated a substantial part of their life narratives to their parents and evaluated their relationship with them in an increasingly differentiated manner. Parents were increasingly perceived as individuals beyond their parental nurturing role. Until late in life individuals reflect on values and opinions that were transferred to them by their parents. Conclusion: Parents hold a consistent place in life narratives, emphasizing their importance for narrative identity. Results are discussed in terms of lifelong child-parent relationships. Directions for future research are outlined. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved. (xsd:string)
