The sample consisted of 1373 parents from the United Kingdom and Vietnam (<i>M</i>age = 37.90, SDage = 7.93 years; 77.7% mothers). We found that work–family conflict, work–family enrichment, family routines, and ritual meaning were significantly correlated with parental burnout, with similar patterns of association between the two countries. However, culture-specific differences emerged. After controlling for demographic variables, work–family conflict was the strongest predictor of parental burnout in the UK sample, whereas family routines played a more prominent role in the Vietnamese sample.

The present cross-sectional study aimed to identify latent profiles of psychological adaptation to divorce and separation using a person-centered approach. A sample of 938 Chilean adult participants completed specific measures of psychological adaptation and mental health indicators. Latent profile analysis revealed five distinct profiles: two with positive outcomes and three experiencing persistent difficulties. Factors such as attachment insecurity, forgiveness of the former partner, and emotion regulation difficulties were linked to profile membership, along with demographic and divorce-related variables.

Results from multilevel modeling following the actor-partner interdependence model showed that greater conflict was associated with lower relationship satisfaction (daily and across 14 days) in both partners.
