“…We merely offer interpretations of our findings in light of the state of theorizing. Still, the fact that our data and interpretation correspond with other quantitative studies using partly similar (Cotter et al, ) and partly more elaborate items to address these concepts (i.e., Liss et al, ; Schiffrin et al, ) make us confident that our approach is fruitful and will stimulate future research aiming at improving the measurement of gender ideologies.…”

“…Despite burgeoning research in this field, only two known quantitative studies examining the concepts of intensive parenting exist. Liss, Schiffrin, Mackintosh, Miles‐McLean, and Erchull () and Schiffrin et al () developed quantitative scales to evaluate intensive parenting ideologies. They found ideologies of intensive parenting to prevail and their scales to be valid and reliable.…”

The authors argue, in line with recent research, that operationalizing gender ideology as a unidimensional construct ranging from traditional to egalitarian is problematic and propose an alternative framework that takes the multidimensionality of gender ideologies into account. Using latent class analysis, they operationalize their gender ideology framework based on data from the 2008 European Values Study, of which eight European countries reflecting the spectrum of current work–family policies were selected. The authors examine the form in which gender ideologies cluster in the various countries. Five ideology profiles were identified: egalitarian, egalitarian essentialism, intensive parenting, moderate traditional, and traditional. The five ideology profiles were found in all countries, but with pronounced variation in size. Ideologies mixing gender essentialist and egalitarian views appear to have replaced traditional ideologies, even in countries offering some institutional support for gendered separate spheres.

“…Thus, the associations between negative emotions and parenting status may be stronger for women (than men), especially during market work and housework and when children are present. At the same time, because parents' roles in actively shaping children's growth and success is more salient among women than among men (Craig et al 2014;Schiffrin et al 2014), and women without children experience more stigma or ambivalence about their ''childless'' status than men (Koropeckyj-Cox and Pendell 2007), the parenting gap in positive emotions may also be strongest among women in all activities, regardless of children's presence. The fifth aim is to explore this gender-related expected pattern.…”

Although public debate ensues over whether parents or nonparents have higher levels of emotional well-being, scholars suggest that being a parent is associated with a mixed bag of emotions. Drawing on the American Time Use Survey for the years 2010, 2012, and 2013 and unique measures of subjective well-being that capture positive and negative emotions linked to daily activities, we “unpack” this mixed bag. We do so by examining contextual variation in the parenting emotions gap based on activity type, whether parents’ children were present, parenting stage, and respondent’s gender. We found that parenting was associated with more positive emotions than nonparenting, but also more negative emotions. This pattern existed only during housework and leisure, not during paid work. Moreover, patterns in positive emotions existed only when parents’ children were present; patterns in negative emotions were primarily observed during earlier stages of parenting. Results were similar for men and women.

Although public debate ensues over whether parents or nonparents have higher levels of emotional well-being, scholars suggest that being a parent is associated with a mixed bag of emotions. Drawing on the American Time Use Survey (2010, 2012, 2013) and unique measures of subjective well-being that capture positive and negative emotions linked to daily activities, we 'unpack' this mixed bag. We do so by examining contextual variation in the parenting emotions gap based on: (1) activity type, (2) whether parents' children were present, (3) parenting stage, and (4) respondent's gender. We found that parenting was associated with more positive emotions than nonparenting, but also more negative emotions. This pattern only existed during housework and leisure, not during paid work. Moreover, patterns in positive emotions only existed when parents' children were present; patterns in negative emotions were primarily observed during earlier stages of parenting.
