This book was released on 2013 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Latinos, the largest minority group in the United States, have the lowest level of college degree attainment relative to the total population. Education is often an indicator for future prospects in society. The present study examined how different parenting styles among Latino families affect individual's development in terms of self-efficacy and academic achievement as an adult. The study included 199 participants between the ages of 25-79. The results indicated a significant negative relationship between permissive parenting and the participants' level of education. The results also indicated a positive correlation between both parents' level of education and the participants' level of education. Additionally, the study found that later generation Latinos reported higher levels of education than first generation. The implications, limitations, and suggestions for future research are discussed.

Parenting is not a single activity, but the total of approaches and behavioral patterns used to care and groom children.
Download or read book The Impact of Maternal Parenting Styles on Goal Orientations Self efficacy and Use of Metacognitive Strategies for Mathematics Among Hispanic High School Students written by Hibah Salem and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research has revealed that a significant achievement gap is present between Hispanic and White students (Aud & Hammes, 2011). The extant literature on the math achievement of Hispanic students has attempted to explain the factors responsible for this underachievement including the influence parents have on the academic achievement of their children. The purpose of this study was to examine how three types of maternal parenting styles were related to Hispanic high school students’ math performance. Additionally, the study examined the mediating effects of goal orientations, self-efficacy, and use of metacognitive strategies on the relationship of maternal parenting styles and students’ math performance. The sample was comprised of Hispanic high school students (N = 312) who were enrolled in either Algebra I, Geometry, or Algebra II. Associations between maternal parenting styles, goal orientations, self-efficacy, use of metacognitive strategies, and math performance were quantified using mediation analyses based on the principles of Baron and Kenny’s (1986) causal steps approach. Results of the multiple regression analyses indicated that all three parenting styles predicted students’ math performance with permissive having a negative effect on math scores. Authoritarian positively predicted both mastery-avoidance and performance-approach goal orientations. Authoritative positively predicted mastery-approach, while permissive positively predicted performance-avoidance and negatively predicted mastery-avoidance. Both authoritative and permissive styles positively predicted self-efficacy and metacognitive strategies. Results also confirmed the performance-approach orientation as a mediator between the authoritarian parenting style and math performance. The relationship between the authoritative parenting style and math performance was mediated by the mastery-approach goal orientation. Mediation effects were confirmed with post-hoc Sobel tests. Limitations and practical implications for these findings were discussed.

Book excerpt: Parent involvement in their children's education has been a frequently sought after and highly regarded component in education that has repeatedly been identified as a significant influence that contributes to children's success in school. Historically, Latino parent involvement has been markedly low in the United States. Researchers' interest in Latino parents' involvement in their children's education has been spurred by this low level of involvement coupled with reports of significant differences in educational achievement between Latino students and students of other ethnic backgrounds. Perceptions of self-efficacy and role construction have been identified as motivators for parent involvement. The purpose of this action research study was to examine the relationship between the Espacio Iluminado Parent Engagement Program as a nontraditional Latino parent involvement opportunity and parents' perceptions of self-efficacy and role construction as it pertains to supporting the education of their children. The foundation of the program was developed utilizing third space theory (Bhabha, 1994) to generate a framework that had the potential to serve as a model for future parent involvement programs that validated the knowledge of diverse cultures and discourses and encouraged a mediation of the two. Participants' ratings of role construction and self-efficacy were significantly improved after their involvement in the parent program. Participants also felt strongly that the program was personally valuable and useful. Future direction might include a longitudinal study to track the academic progress of children of the participants.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All parents experience stress as they attempt to meet the challenges of caring for their children. This comprehensive book examines the causes and consequences of parenting distress, drawing on a wide array of findings in current empirical research. Kirby Deater-Deckard explores normal and pathological parenting stress, the influences of parents on their children as well as children on their parents, and the effects of biological and environmental factors. Beginning with an overview of theories of stress and coping, Deater-Deckard goes on to describe how parenting stress is linked with problems in adult and child health (emotional problems, developmental disorders, illness); parental behaviors (warmth, harsh discipline); and factors outside the family (marital quality, work roles, cultural influences). The book concludes with a useful review of coping strategies and interventions that have been demonstrated to alleviate parenting stress.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: The purpose of this study was to examine stress and general self-efficacy among Latino immigrant parents in California. This was achieved through quantitative cross-sectional research. The results revealed that the older Latino immigrant parents indicated higher perceived stress. Living in the United States for a longer period was associated with a higher general self-efficacy. Past or current fear of deportation was associated with higher perceived stress. Latino immigrant parents in the lowest income categories indicated higher perceived stress, as did those with a greater number of children. Latino immigrant parents who reported a smaller household size indicated greater general self-efficacy. The results may be beneficial to families, professionals, and agencies so that they may better understand and help Latino immigrant parents and their families and work to implement programs specifically for this population.

Download or read book The Parental Experience in Midlife written by Carol D. Ryff and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1996 with total page 700 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most adults experience parenthood. But the longest period of the parental experience—when children grow into adolescence and young adulthood and parents themselves are not yet elderly—is the least understood. In this groundbreaking volume, distinguished scholars from anthropology, demography, economics, psychology, social work, and sociology explore the uncharted years of midlife parenthood. The authors employ a rich array of theory and methods to address how the parental experience affects the health, well-being, and development of individuals. Collectively, they look at the time when parents watch offspring grow into adulthood and begin to establish adult-to-adult relationships with their children. With a strong emphasis on the diversity of midlife parenting, including sociodemographic variations and specific parent or child characteristics such as single parenting or raising a child with a disability, this volume presents for the first time the complex factors that influence the quality of the midlife parenting experience.
