This book was released on 2015 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to examine the influences of acculturation on parenting styles and parental communication among Chinese mothers in intracultural and intercultural marriages in the United States. The participants were 97 (N=97) Chinese immigrant mothers across different states in the United States. An online questionnaire was administered to participants via Chinese mothers' network sites in California, New Orleans, Boston, New York, Colorado and Wyoming. The results of this study indicated that the length of the stay in the U.S. was positively related to the conversation-oriented family communication patterns, and negatively related to the conformity-oriented family communication patterns. Cultural identity did not influence Chinese mothers' parenting styles and family communication patterns. These findings further extend our understanding about how exposure to a new culture can influence family communication patterns among Chinese immigrant mothers.

Book The Effect of Acculturation on Parental Perception of Child Psychological Assessment Among Chinese Americans

Download or read book The Effect of Acculturation on Parental Perception of Child Psychological Assessment Among Chinese Americans written by Eching Ho and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Psychological assessment has a long history to be used for diagnostic purposes for all ages. This traditional model of assessment has been common for decades, but has not emphasized some important aspects of best practice (Brenner, 2003). To address the limitations of the information gathering model of assessment, collaborative and therapeutic approaches to assessment have been developed over the past several decades (e.g. Finn & Thonsager, 1997; Fischer, 1970). Therapeutic Assessment (TA) emphasizes the opportunity to provide positive changes in the client and their system by involving the client throughout the assessment process, and establishing a meaningful and collaborative relationship between assessor and client (Finn, 2007). The TA has been found to produce many positive impacts on client's assessment experiences in mainstream American culture. It is important to note how these positive impacts transfer to clients of different cultures. Thus the purpose of this study will be to investigate the effect of acculturation on Asian American parents' perception of existing models of child assessment. This study will examine the relations between acculturation and perception of assessment models (information gathering model versus Therapeutic Assessment) among Chinese American parents.

Book Acculturation  Communication  and Parent child Relationships in Asian Immigrant Families

Download or read book Acculturation Communication and Parent child Relationships in Asian Immigrant Families written by Elizabeth Y. Lin and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Little is known about the factors related to the quality of parent-chld relationships in Asian immigrant families. Hence, the present study was conducted to examine the associations between the parent-child acculturative gap, quality of communication, and quality of parent-child relationships in a sample of 141 Asian American adolescents. Contrary to previous research, the parent-child acculturative gap did not correlate with quality of parent-child relationship. In contrast, communication was highly correlated with relationship quality. Parent-child acculturative gap and communication were negatively correlated in mother-child relationships but had no significant correlation in father-child relationships. Associations between variables did not differ between male and female adolescents or between mother-child and father-child relationships.

Book Parental Acculturation  Parenting Practices  and Adolescent Depressive Symptoms in Chinese American Families

Download or read book Parental Acculturation Parenting Practices and Adolescent Depressive Symptoms in Chinese American Families written by Xuan Huang and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chinese-American parents are parenting within two cultures: the mainstream American culture and their heritage Chinese culture. This study examined parental cultural orientations toward the American and Chinese cultures, and the implications for parenting practices among Chinese-American families. Parenting dimensions examined were both culture-general measures (parental warmth, punitive parenting, non-democratic parenting) and culture-specific measure (parental endorsement of family obligations). Data came from a two-wave survey of about 400 Chinese-American families (one target adolescent, mother, and father). First, within each wave, the study examined the concurrent relationships between parenting practices and adolescent depressive symptoms. Second, this study examined, concurrently and longitudinally, whether parental cultural orientations were associated with parenting practices both directly and indirectly through two mediating factors: parents' bicultural management difficulty and depressive symptoms. Analyses were conducted separately for mothers and fathers. First, study findings showed that parenting practices characterized by higher levels of warmth, strong endorsement of family obligations, and lower levels of punitive and non-democratic behaviors were associated with fewer depressive symptoms in adolescents. Second, the study demonstrated significant direct relationships between both Chinese and American orientations and parenting practices. While American orientation was related to effective parenting (more warmth, low punitiveness, low non-democratic parenting), Chinese orientation was related to effective parenting (more warmth, low non-democratic parenting, strong endorsement of family obligations) as well as ineffective parenting (high punitiveness). This study also showed that parents' bicultural management difficulty and depressive symptoms mediated the relationships between acculturation and culture-general parenting measures (warmth, punitiveness, and nondemocratic parenting). It was through these two mediators (bicultural management difficulty and parental depressive symptoms) that (1) Chinese orientation was related to less warmth, high punitive and non-democratic parenting and (2) American orientation was related to more warmth, low punitive and non-democratic parenting. Lastly, there was some evidence of longitudinal relationships (father's American orientation at w1 predicted more warmth at w2; mother's American orientation at w1 predicted low punitiveness at w2 through the mediating factors of bicultural management difficulty and depressive symptoms at w1). The study suggests that parental psychological maladjustment is a promising area for interventions to promote parenting and adolescent development among ChineseAmerican families.

Book Perspectives on the Intersection of Multiculturalism and Positive Psychology

Download or read book Perspectives on the Intersection of Multiculturalism and Positive Psychology written by Jennifer Teramoto Pedrotti and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2014-03-24 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The volume will be a collection of chapters about current theory, research, and practice related to multiculturalism and positive psychology. This book will serve as a reference to any who are interested in the intersection of positive psychology and multicultural context. While many in the field of positive psychology have begun to move more strongly towards a culturally-embedded approach that recognizes the importance of context in discussing, viewing and cultivating strengths in individuals from different backgrounds, there is still a dearth of research in this area compared with studies that take a cross-cultural approach (comparing people from different countries) or one that is purported to be “culture-free” or universal in its application. While it is becoming more common to see various articles or chapters published on these topics, there is still no comprehensive text aimed at discussion of the collection of these topics presented in a cohesive and structured way. This book aims to fill this gap in the literature. In this book, a broad definition of culture is utilized that includes such facets as race, ethnicity, socioeconomic or social class status, disability, religion, sexual orientation and gender. This book is intended to present research, theory and suggestions for practice that are grounded in diverse cultural contexts and current scholarship. It will assist researchers, students and practitioners who are studying and working within diverse populations. Currently there exists no comprehensive text that addresses the intersection of positive psychology and multiculturalism. Several edited volumes address positive psychology constructs (e.g., well-being, optimal experience, autonomy) across cultures, but they do not focus on multicultural populations within the United States. Other books focus more specifically on mental health applications and stress and coping among multicultural populations, however these books do not provide a broad perspective on psychology beyond this application piece. The proposed book will review current theory and research about constructs in addition to applications across contexts. Finally, other published books have focused on youth within multicultural society; this volume is more broad in its address of issues of positive psychology across the lifespan and across various aspects of identity including disability, gender, social class and sexual orientation.
