        <bibo:abstract>In order to investigate the significance of
adults’ relationship to their parents, this relationship is
compared to relationships with siblings, friends, partners,
and children. German adults (N = 902) between the ages
of 20 and 86 completed the Network of Relationships
Inventory (Furman and Buhrmester 1992). Participants felt
most supported by their partners, followed by their children, mothers, friends, fathers, and siblings. Conflicts were
more frequently found within the family (especially with
the partner, followed by children, mothers, fathers, and
siblings) than with friends. Except for partner relationships,
both conflict and support decreased with age. Concerning
relative power within their relationships, partners, mothers,
and siblings are seen as equals, friends and especially
fathers are perceived as more powerful, and children as
less, yet increasingly powerful. Regarding all relationship
types and relationship qualities, the differences between
women and men were small.</bibo:abstract>
