AB AbstractDuring the last few decades, there has been an increasing international recognition ofthe studies related to the analysis of the family models change, the focus being thedeterminants of the female employment and the problems related to the work familybalance (Lewis, 2001; Petit & Hook, 2005Saraceno, Crompton & Lyonette, 20062008;Pfau-Effinger, 2012). The majority of these studies have been focused on the analysis ofthe work-family balance problems as well as the effectiveness of the family and genderpolicies in order to encourage female employment (Korpi et al., 2013).In Spain, special attention has been given to the family policies implemented, theemployability of women and on the role of the father in the family (Flaquer et al., 2015;Meil, 2015); however, there has been far less emphasis on the analysis of the familycultural models (González and Jurado, 2012; Crespi and Moreno, 2016).The purpose of this paper is to present some of the first results on the influence of thesocio-demographic factors on the expectations and attitudes about the family models.This study offers an analytical reflection upon the foundation of the determinants of thefamily ambivalence in Spain from the cultural and the institutional dimension. Thisstudy shows the Spanish family models of preferences following the Pfau-Effinger(2004) classification of the famiy living arrangements.The reason for this study is twofold; on the one hand, there is confirmed the scarcity ofstudies that have focused their attention on this objective in Spain; on the other hand,the studies carried out in the international context have confirmed the analyticaleffectiveness of researching on the attitude and value changes to explain the meaningand trends of the family changes.There is also presented some preliminary results that have been obtained from themultinomial analysis related to the influence of the socio-demographic factors on thefamily model chosen by the individuals in Spain (father and mother working full time;mother part-time father full-time; mother not at work father full-time; mother and fatherpart-time).3The database used has been the International Social Survey Programme: Family andChanging Gender Roles IV- ISSP 2012-. Spain is the only country of South Europe thathas participated in the survey. For this reason it has been considered as a representativecase study.
