Next Page Question 7 (1 point) \( \checkmark \) Sage 7 of 60 Stepfamilies differ from biological families such that: stepfamilies experience less stress and conflict. stepfamilies have simpler structures. stepfamilies have quicker integration periods between family members. stepfamilies create new roles in the family structure.

Stepfamilies often create new roles and dynamics that didn't exist in traditional biological families, such as the role of the stepparent or stepsibling. These roles can lead to unique relationships, bringing both challenges and opportunities for growth as family members navigate their new identities and responsibilities together. Additionally, the integration of new family members can involve a period of adjustment, marked by blended relationships and evolving family norms. This process usually takes time, allowing family members to learn about each other and establish their place within the new family structure while also managing expectations and emotional responses.
