Resumen

En este trabajo se analiza comparativamente la calidad de los contextos familiares en grupos de familias tradicionales, monoparentales, reconstituidas, adoptivas, homoparentales y de nacimientos múltiples. Las familias reconstituidas obtienen el perfil de calidad del contexto familiar más bajo y las familias homoparentales el perfil más alto. Los resultados conducen a la conclusión de que no es la estructura familiar en sí, sino las variables sociodemográficas y las interactivas asociadas a las mismas, las que conforman la calidad de los contextos familiares.

Abstract

This paper analyses comparatively the quality of family contexts in groups of traditional, single, step, adoptive, same-sex, and multiple births families. The lowest quality of family context was observed in stepfamilies and the highest in same-sex households. The results lead us to conclude that it is not the family structure itself, but the interactive and sociodemographic variables associated with them, which shape the quality of family contexts.
