[[abstract]]本研究主要的目的是利用橫斷法的方式，進行對中國傳統家庭觀念在代間差異狀況之了解。其主要的兩個假設為：（1）傳統家庭觀念在三個年齡分層之間是具有差異的。（2）性別、教育程度、宗教信仰、及家庭型態是影響三組之間傳統家庭觀念的主要因素。研究樣本主要以臺北市居民為主，分為三個組群，包括：青年組、壯年組、及老年組。在青年組部份又分為國中及高中二個組群，人數為200人。壯年組為35歲到45歲的成年人，共100人，老年組為65歲以上之老人100人。 研究結果發現，二個重要的結論：（1）三代之間在傳統家庭觀念上具有顯著的差異存在，且老年組持有更傳統的家庭觀念。（2）青年組的傳統家庭觀念會因性別、教育程度、宗教信仰、及家庭型態等變項的不同而有差異，壯年組則只有教育程度會影響其傳統家庭觀念。 The main purposes of this study are to explore the change of traditional family concept of family by using cross-sectional data.
