In a new similar study, "Mothers' Differentiation and Depressive Symptoms Among Adult Children," published in the April 2010 edition of Journal of Marriage and Family, the research duo of Pillemar and Suitor teamed up with Charles Henderson,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Cornell University's senior research associate in human development and student Seth Pardo, for a study first. Previous research had examined negative effects only in children, teens and young adults. Pillemar's new study showed that both favored and rejected siblings faced potentially negative consequences that persisted into adulthood.
In November 1997, Susan Lang of the Cornell Chronicle reported on a pilot study conducted by researchers, Karl Pillemer, associate professor of human development at Cornell University and Jill Suitor of Louisiana State University. Lang said that according to Pillemar, out of 30 mothers between the ages of 65 and 75 years interviewed face-to-face, 80% admitted to having a favorite among their grown children."
Moms' favoritism is linked to adult depression in a study first
In the June 24, 2010 article, "Study: Moms' Favoritism Tied to Depression in Adulthood," published in the Cornell Chronicle Online, Ted Boscia, assistant director of communications for the College of Human Ecology wrote that study results indicated that consistently favoring or rejecting one child over others is more likely to manifest as depression in middle-aged adults.
Older moms admit to having favorite children
"It doesn't matter whether you are the chosen child or not, the perception of unequal treatment has damaging effects for all siblings," Pillemar told Boscia. "The less favored kids may have ill will toward their mother or preferred sibling, and being the favored child brings resentment from one's siblings and the added weight of greater parental expectations." However, reports Boscia, "Favoritism may be difficult for mothers to avoid." This is a fact duly supported by the study results.
Pillemar told Lang in,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], "Older Moms Have Favorite Children – But Children Get it Wrong," that favoritism seemed to be "tied to gender, marital status, parental status and educational attainment." In families with heightened conflict,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], perspectives were such that mothers tended to report "greater closeness and fewer problems among their children," than the adult children reported themselves. Furthermore, Lang wrote that according to co-researcher Jill Suitor,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], "Although mothers were very reluctant to identify a favorite, most still had one."

Review
A new study reveals that unequal treatment between siblings can have long-term damaging effects for both the "golden child" and the less-favored sibling. The pressures on both siblings to continuously meet expectations breeds resentment and ill-will between siblings, and between siblings and parents. This, says the study, can elevate the potential for adulthood depression.
