It has been shown that parents and children have healthier development when parents disclose their homosexuality than when it is kept a secret. This being so, it is important to identify variables that may predict children\u2019s acceptance of homosexual parents who disclose their identities. The current study examined the influence of four aspects of self-consciousness (shame-proneness, guilt-proneness, externalization, and detachment-unconcern), attitudes toward lesbians and gay men, and quality of the parent-child relationship with mothers and fathers on the level of acceptance reported for a mother and a father\u2019s hypothetical disclosure of a homosexual identity. A multiple regression analysis revealed that high levels of guilt proneness and positive attitudes toward lesbians predicted high levels of acceptance for a mother\u2019s disclosure of a lesbian identity. A multiple regression analysis also revealed that high levels of guilt-proneness, positive attitudes toward gay men, and high quality of relationships with fathers predicted high levels of acceptance for a father\u2019s disclosure of a gay identity. Additionally, lesbian mothers were more accepted than gay fathers and more positive attitudes were held towards lesbians than gay men. There was no significant difference between acceptance levels of male and female participants for either parent. These results imply that, although a stigma is associated with homosexual individuals, including parents, proneness to experiencing feelings of guilt may influence individuals to report high levels of acceptance that may not reflect their true feelings. Additionally, acceptance levels for fathers are influenced by the quality of the relationship and this may be due to the greater societal stigma associated with gay men as opposed to lesbians. As a result of which, it may be easier to reject a gay father than a lesbian mother." ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Classification" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "HQ75.27.H66 2009" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Publication Date" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "2009" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Genre" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Academic theses" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Holding Location" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Barry University Archives and Special Collections" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Resource Identifier" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "HQ75.27.H66 2009_PuckettJulia" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Language" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "English" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Permanent Link" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "http://sobekcmsrv.barrynet.barry.edu/AA00001283/00001" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Creator" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Puckett, Julia A." ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Note" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Thesis (M.S.)--Barry University, 2009.", "Includes bibliographical references (leaves 55-61)." ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Physical Description" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "81 leaves ; 28 cm" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Publisher" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Barry University" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Place of Publication" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Miami, Fla." ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Type" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Book" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Rights Management" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Copyright Julia A.
