description: &lt;p&gt;National survey regarding the functioning of family relationships as the natural social context where childrearing and parent-child interactions are embedded. Subjective characteristics of primary relationships as they are actualized both in parent-child and parent-parent interactions are focused upon. Characteristics of the wider, social environment are measured both in their subjective and in their objective quality.
