Quality of life in the family
The project examines the relationship between living standards, social support
and quality of life in Norwegian families. The aim is to further develop the
Nordic level of living tradition in methods and theory. In most families,
work, partner and family roles are intertwined, and the project expects family
members through their close relations to influence each other in the formation
of well-being and life quality. By studying different family types, the
project hopes to contribute on the understanding of children and youth and the
environment in which they grow up. Relevant questions are: Do "the good life"
depend on family belonging? How is life quality structured and formed within
families? And will the so-called "collapse" of traditional family structures
influence children's well being?
