“…Researchers have demonstrated that Asian American parenting differs from that of European Americans (Chao & Tseng, 2002). However, compared to Asian groups such as Chinese Americans (Chao, 1994;Gorman, 1998), relatively little is known about Korean Americans. Korean culture is viewed as a collectivistic culture, which is quite different from the individualistic culture commonly found in the United States (Hofstede, 1980).…”

Nurses not only need to be familiar with the professional guidelines of discipline and but also be aware of variances in styles of acceptable discipline across cultural groups. The goal of this study was to explore cultural influences in relation to (1) first generation Korean American parents' perceptions of common discipline strategies in the United States and (2) discipline strategies commonly used among first generation Korean American parents. Inductive content analysis was used to analyze interview data from seven first generation Korean American parents. Derived themes indicated that parents considered spanking/hitting and less hugging/kissing as Korean style and time out, using a sticker chart, hugging/kissing, removing/adding privileges, and giving chores as American style. Recent immigrant parents were not familiar with common positive discipline strategies in the United States. As they adapted to the mainstream society, they discontinued what they perceived to be negative aspects of Korean style and adopted positive aspects of American style. They were sensitive to children's views on discipline and they experienced communication difficulties with children. These findings indicated that Korean American parents' perceptions on discipline strategies were shaped by living in two cultures and were different from the western viewpoints.

“…Primeiramente, pode-se falar sobre possíveis variações entre diferentes grupos culturais. Estudos (ver Gorman, 1998;Lin & Fu, 1990;Steinberg et al, 1994) indicam que há diferenças nas formas de agir dos pais em função das diferenças culturais. Desta forma, como a escala usada na presente pesquisa havia sido utilizada apenas para investigar a socialização familiar em culturas européias (Espanha e Itália), pode-se atribuir a existência de uma terceira dimensão às especificidades da cultura brasileira, sobretudo do nordeste do país.…”

ResumoEste estudo buscou analisar as relações existentes entre a percepção das práticas parentais de socialização e os valores de adolescentes. Foram contatados 2.004 adolescentes, com idades entre 10 e 18 anos, de ambos os sexos, estudantes de escolas públicas e privadas, que responderam à Escala de Socialização Parental na Adolescência e ao Questionário de Valores Psicossociais. Em relação às práticas de socialização, os resultados demonstram que, ao contrário do esperado, a percepção dos adolescentes está organizada em três dimensões: aceitação, coerção e displicência. Os valores estão estruturados em quatro sistemas: materialista, pós-materialista, hedonista e religioso. Foram encontradas relações, tanto positivas como negativas, entre as práticas parentais de socialização e os valores de adolescentes, o que permite supor que a socialização no contexto familiar reflete no processo de construção de valores dos adolescentes. Palavras-chave: Práticas parentais de socialização; valores; adolescentes. AbstractThis study investigates the relations between the perception of parental practices of socialization and the teenager's values. Two thousand and four (2.004) teenagers of both sexes, from public and private schools aged between 10 and 18 were contacted. Two questionnaires were used: the Teenage Parental Socialization Scale and the Questionnaire of Psychosocial Values. The results reveal that the teenagers' perceptions of parental socialization are organized in three dimensions: Acceptance, Control and Carelessness. They also show that the values are organized in four systems: Materialist, Post-materialist, Hedonic and Religious. Positive and negative relations were found among parental socialization practices and the teenager's values, which allow us to suppose that socialization in a family context reflects in the process of constructing the values of teenagers. Keywords: Parental practices of socialization; values; teenagers.Disponível em www.scielo.br/prc Na tentativa de buscar uma solução para as questões sociais, algumas culturas ocidentais têm apontado para a necessidade de se voltar para a família enquanto arena de construção de valores. Isso se deve à suposição de que fatores relacionados à família de hoje, como pais solteiros e falta de controle parental, são fortemente responsáveis por problemas associados à juventude atual e, conseqüentemente, aos valores que esses jovens possuem (Shucksmith, Hendry & Glendinning, 1995).A focalização no papel da família está pautada, principalmente, no fato de que os pais são socialmente designados como primeiros responsáveis pela socialização (Kuczynski & Grusec, 1997), uma vez que, por mais que as normas e os processos de socialização variem segundo os diversos contextos sociais, econômicos e políticos, o papel dos pais continua sendo o de avaliar se os comportamentos dos filhos são ou não adequados a estas normas sociais (Darling & Steinberg, 1993). Sendo assim, dentre os contextos em que os adolescentes se desenvolvem, nenhum tem recebido tanta atenção como a f...

“…For example, the majority of studies on Asian parenting consistently show that Asian parents employ a more authoritarian style of parenting compared to Westerners (Chao, 1995;Gorman, 1998;Khoo-Lattimore et al, 2015). For Asians, parental obedience and some aspects of strictness may be equated with parental concern, caring, and involvement (Sorkhabi, 2005).…”

Adolescents have become an attractive market for tourism because they represent a sizable population segment with an increasing influence on family purchases. There is an urgent need to understand adolescents̕ needs, motivations and role in the tourism industry, particularly the factors that may affect their tourism satisfaction. This study highlights the importance of adolescents' mood and the style in which they have been parented as under-researched factors affecting young people's tourism satisfaction. The focus of the study is Alisadr cave, a well-known tourist destination for families in Iran. In 2016, questionnaires were distributed to 360 tourists ranging in age from 11 to 18 years. Descriptive statistics, Pearson's correlation analysis and multiple regressions were run on the 354 useable responses. Results showed, firstly, that 60.2% of the respondents had high levels of satisfaction with mean scores above 3.5 for all items. Secondly, the dominant parenting style, as perceived by the adolescents, was authoritative. Finally, there was a significant and positive relationship between authoritative parenting style and positive mood in relation to adolescents' basic needs' satisfaction. Authoritarian parenting style and negative mood had a significant and negative relationship with the satisfaction of all three basic needs, namely autonomy, competence and relatedness. Permissiveness had a positive relationship with only two of the needs -autonomy and relatedness.
