  8. Sanctions regarding illegitimacy are associated with parent-child closeness (124).Hendrix, Lewellyn - Illegitimacy and social structures: cross-cultural perspectives on nonmarita..., 1996 - 4 Variables

    This book investigates sanctions for nonmarital conceptions or birth. The author conducts cross-cultural tests for hypotheses derived from a variety of theories. Results do not support one theory over another, but suggest that variables such as sociocultural complexity, family structure, descent, fraternal interest groups, sexual inequality, and child-parent relationships all affect the consequences of illegitimacy.

  9. Father-in-law/daughter-in-law avoidance should be more likely to occur where there is household co-residence (243, 250)Witkowski, Stanley - A cross-cultural test of the proximity hypothesis, 1972 - 2 Variables

    This paper tests the proximity hypothesis (used by Murdock [1949]) which posits that residential propinquity will be associated with parent-in-law avoidance and kin terminology. Several operational hypotheses are tested but none are supported. The author suggests that this finding may cast doubt other hypotheses that underlie Murdock’s findings, such as the participation hypothesis.
