Abstract

In the present work, we addressed the relationship between parental leave policies and social norms. Using a pre-registered, cross-national approach, we examined the relationship between parental leave policies and the perception of social norms for the gender division of childcare. In this study, 19,259 students (11,924 women) from 48 countries indicated the degree to which they believe childcare is (descriptive norm) and should be (prescriptive norm) equally divided among mothers and fathers. Policies were primarily operationalized as the existence of parental leave options in the respective country. The descriptive and prescriptive norms of equal division of childcare were stronger when parental leave was available in a country - also when controlling for potential confounding variables. Moreover, analyses of time since policy change suggested that policy change may initially affect prescriptive norms and then descriptive norms at a later point. However, due to the cross-sectional nature of the data, drawing causal inferences is difficult.

政策对规范的影响？48 个国家育儿假政策与育儿性别分工社会规范之间的关系。

在本研究中，我们探讨了育儿假政策与社会规范之间的关系。我们采用预先登记的跨国方法，研究了育儿假政策与对育儿性别分工社会规范的看法之间的关系。在这项研究中，来自 48 个国家的 19,259 名学生（11,924 名女性）回答了他们认为育儿在多大程度上（描述性规范）以及在多大程度上（规定性规范）应该在母亲和父亲之间平等分配。政策主要体现为各国是否存在育儿假选项。当一个国家有育儿假时，平等分担育儿责任的描述性规范和规定性规范更强--在控制潜在混杂变量的情况下也是如此。此外，对政策变化以来的时间进行的分析表明，政策变化最初可能会影响规定性规范，随后则会影响描述性规范。然而，由于数据的横截面性质，很难做出因果推论。

期刊介绍： The British Journal of Social Psychology publishes work from scholars based in all parts of the world, and manuscripts that present data on a wide range of populations inside and outside the UK. It publishes original papers in all areas of social psychology including: • social cognition • attitudes • group processes • social influence • intergroup relations • self and identity • nonverbal communication • social psychological aspects of personality, affect and emotion • language and discourse Submissions addressing these topics from a variety of approaches and methods, both quantitative and qualitative are welcomed. We publish papers of the following kinds: • empirical papers that address theoretical issues; • theoretical papers, including analyses of existing social psychological theories and presentations of theoretical innovations, extensions, or integrations; • review papers that provide an evaluation of work within a given area of social psychology and that present proposals for further research in that area; • methodological papers concerning issues that are particularly relevant to a wide range of social psychologists; • an invited agenda article as the first article in the first part of every volume. The editorial team aims to handle papers as efficiently as possible. In 2016, papers were triaged within less than a week, and the average turnaround time from receipt of the manuscript to first decision sent back to the authors was 47 days.
