“…Similarly, Clulow (1993) contends that the organisation of families in industrial countries (eg, Australia, USA and most Western European countries) has changed dramatically in the past quarter of a century as a result of increases in divorce rates, falling marriage rates, co-habitation without marriage, single parenting and increased women in the workforce. He notes that the organisation of the family has been affected by (1) a shift from the command to the negotiation method for family decision making and (2) the presence of two income families, which has increased the status and options for women and has generated uncertainty about gender roles and responsibilities.…”

Evaluation of husbands' and wives' influence in family decision making is heavily reliant on studies conducted in the 1970s and 1980s. Since that time, profound changes have occurred in the American family. These changes may have affected the nature of decision making in the household. To examine the degree to which earlier findings are still generalisable today, hypotheses are developed and tested with a contemporary sample of 458 men and women. Results suggest that there have been significant changes in the roles assumed in the family decision-making process, with the wife gaining more influence in all decision areas. The results indicate that marketers must re-examine their marketing strategies for some products and/or services. Possible theoretical explanations are suggested to explain why these changes may have occurred.

“…These changes have been documented and lamented by a large number of diverse authoritative sources. Clulow (1993) predicted some of these shifts from a "traditional" family to a "new" family environment (see Table 1). …”

“…Initial academic circles (prior to the 1950s) emphasized unilateral (autonomous) family decision-making theory; that is, a single family member-typically the husband-was responsible for all decisions (Nanda, Hu, and Bai 2007). Later, dynamic changes such as the possibility of negotiating family decisions (Clulow 1993) and women's growing social status (Belch and Willis 2002) urged scholars to consider women's increasingly amplified decision power. Researchers thus proposed a joint family decision-making pattern wherein the husband and wife made decisions simultaneously.…”

To establish an interactive model reflecting how children’s involvement in family tourism decisions interacts with internal and external factors, this study examines the interrelationships between children’s individual characteristics (tourism knowledge and tourism attachment), parental characteristics (socio- and concept-orientation family communication patterns), and children’s influence on family tourism decision making (initiation and search/decision stages) using structural equation modeling. Results reveal that tourism knowledge and socio- and concept-orientation patterns are positively related to children’s influence on both decision stages. Specifically, tourism knowledge mediates relationships between socio- and concept-orientation patterns and children’s influence on the initiation stage; tourism attachment mediates the relationship between the concept-orientation pattern and children’s influence on the initiation stage. Lastly, theoretical and managerial implications of these findings are discussed.
