Abstract

Women’s marital surname change is important, in part, because it affects how often only husbands’ (fathers’) surnames are passed on to offspring: this, in turn, affects the frequency of these “family” names. Brides-to-be, novelly, from across especially western and central Canada (N = 184), were surveyed as to marital surname hyphenation/retention versus change intention, and attitude towards women’s such choices in general. Among women engaged to men, the hypothesized predictors of income and number of future children desired were positively predictive of marital surname retention/hyphenation under univariate analysis. Under multiple regression analysis using these and other predictors from the literature, previously found to be predictive of this DV under univariate analysis, only some of these other predictors were predictive. Of greatest predictiveness was the bride-to-be’s own mother’s marital surname choice (with brides-to-be, more often than would otherwise be predicted, following their mother’s such choice), thus suggesting a possible shift to a transmitted manner of bilateral descent reckoning, towards greater bilateral such reckoning, among a portion of the population. Reported, general attitude towards women’s marital surname retention was predictive of participant brides-to-be’s own reported (imminent) marital surname retention/hyphenation.
加拿大准新娘的姓氏选择:双边血统传承的潜在证据 重新计算
妇女婚后改姓之所以重要,部分原因在于它影响了只有丈夫(父亲)的姓氏传给后代的频率:这反过来又影响了这些 "家族 "姓氏的频率。来自加拿大西部和中部的准新娘(184 人)接受了一项新颖的调查,内容涉及婚后姓氏的连用/保留与改姓意向,以及对女性选择此类姓氏的总体态度。在与男性订婚的女性中,根据单变量分析,收入和未来想要的孩子数量这两个假设预测因素对保留/改变婚姻姓氏有积极的预测作用。在使用这些预测因素和文献中的其他预测因素进行多元回归分析时(这些预测因素之前在单变量分析中被发现对这一 DV 具有预测作用),只有其中一些其他预测因素具有预测作用。最有预测性的是准新娘自己的母亲对婚姻姓氏的选择(准新娘跟随母亲选择姓氏的情况比预测的要多),这表明在一部分人群中,双边血统计算的方式可能会向传播方式转变,双边血统计算的程度会更高。所报告的对妇女保留婚后姓氏的一般态度可预测参与调查的准新娘本人所报告的(即将)保留/改用婚后姓氏的情况。
