Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine attitudes and beliefs that predicted frequency of coparental communication and intentions to coparent for 203 divorced mothers and 124 fathers. Mothers and fathers who held positive perceptions of coparenting communicated more often with their former partner than did other parents. Mothers who perceived social encouragement to coparent and who perceived greater control over their abilities to coparent communicated more often with former spouses than did other mothers. Mothers also had greater intentions to coparent in the future when they held positive perceptions of coparenting and perceived that social norms encouraged them to coparent.
