Konflikty v rodině původu, osobní pohoda a duševní zdraví v dospělosti

The article explores the relationship between conflict in the family of origin and an individual’s wellbeing in adulthood. It examines to what extent the negative effects of a childhood spent in a conflict‑ridden family can be explained by economic deprivation in childhood, a disrupted life course, and a person’s sociodemographic situation in adulthood. Empirical analyses are conducted on data from the 7th wave of the ESS from 2014 and three indicators of personal wellbeing are used: a depression scale, self‑reported happiness, and life satisfaction. The analyses show that spending childhood in a conflict‑ridden family affects mainly the emotional side of personal wellbeing (happiness, depressive symptoms). The relationship between the cognitive side of personal wellbeing (satisfaction with life) and a high‑conflict environment in childhood can be explained by sociodemographic factors.
