There was no correlation found between total parenting stress, total
discouragement, or general functioning in families. There was no difference in
results between biological or stepparents, stepmothers or stepfathers, or whether
the marriage was formed more than rather than less than two years. A post hoc
analysis did find correlations between some of the subscales of the Parenting
Stress Index, the Discouragement Scale for Adults, and the Family Assessment
Device.
Further research could focus on larger sample sizes and correlation between
subscales of the instruments used.
