“…As such, this finding helps to further elucidate a long-standing debate in the literature: namely, why authoritarian parenting is inconsistently associated with negative academic outcomes in Chinese American children (Dornbusch, Ritter, Leiderman, Roberts, & Fraleigh, 1987;Steinberg, Lamborn, Darling, Mounts, & Dornbusch, 1994). While some researchers have argued against the applicability of authoritarian parenting styles to Chinese American families (Chao, 1994), our findings suggest that the links between authoritarian parenting and Chinese American students' academic achievement could be indirect and thus less detectable.…”

a b s t r a c tThe present study examined the direct and indirect relations of family contextual factors, effortful control (EC), and the early math and English literacy skills of first and second-generation Chinese American immigrant children in early elementary school. Using a socioeconomically diverse sample of 258 Chinese American children (53% receiving free-or reduced-price school lunch), we assessed EC with a combination of parent and teacher reports, computerized neuropsychological tests, and a behavioral frustration task. Children's math calculation and English literacy skills were assessed with standardized achievement tests. Results of structural equation modeling suggested that: (a) EC was positively associated with both math and English literacy skills; (b) parents' enculturation was marginally and positively associated with children's EC, and EC mediated the link between parent's enculturation and children's achievement, (c) authoritarian parenting was marginally and negatively associated with children's EC, and EC mediated the link between authoritarian parenting and children's achievement; (d) parents' enculturation had a direct and negative link to children's English literacy skills; and (e) no evidence of an EC × SES interaction was found. The findings highlight the need to consider joint influences of socioeconomic, interpersonal, and cultural factors on children's academic development in immigrant families; and provide support for promoting children's effortful control as an intermediate target of intervention.

“…El estudio arroja diferencias significativas en el factor inductivo, siendo los padres con educación primaria más inductivos que los padres con educación terciaria-universitaria. Cabe consignar que, según diversas investigaciones los padres con un nivel de educación más alto se manifiestan de forma más democrática que los padres con un bajo nivel educativo (Dornbusch, Ritter, Liedermann, Roberts & Fraleigh, 1987), presentan mejores habilidades emocionales y una mayor comunicación afectiva (Ruvalcaba et al, 2012). Asimismo se ha manifestado que la educación de los padres se relaciona con altos niveles de responsividad, como los que se dan en los estilos autoritativo y permisivo (Glasgow, Dornbusch, Troyer & Steinberg, 1997).…”

Se estudiaron los estilos parentales según la percepción de padres, madres y sus hijos e hijas de 12 años. Se aplicaron las escalas de Afecto y de Normas y Exigencias a 107 padres y madres y 107 hijos e hijas. Se encontraron diferencias significativas en la percepción de padres y madres, en el factor Crítica/Rechazo y en la subescala Inductiva, según el sexo de los hijos que respondieron. Las percepciones de hijos e hijas arrojaron diferencias significativas para los padres, en las escalas Afecto e Indulgente y para las madres en las escalas Afecto, Indulgente e Inductiva. Los padres con nivel de enseñanza primaria aparecieron significativamente más inductivos que quienes tuvieron estudios universitarios. Palabras clave: familia, estrategias de socialización, estilos parentales, adolescencia. Parental relational styles: A study with adolescents and their parentsPerceptions of parenting styles by parents and their 12-year-old preadolescents are studied One hundred seven parents and their adolescents enrolled in the first year of secondary education in one of four Catholic schools in Montevideo completed Affection, Rules and Requirements questionnaires. There were significant differences in parent perception in the critical / rejection and inductive factor subscale, depending on the gender of the adolescent. Preadolescent perceptions exhibit significant differences in indulgent and affection scales for father, and in affection, indulgent and inductive scales for mothers. Parents with a primary school education level appear significantly more inductive than those who were are university graduates.

“…As the results show, one generation's economic status has an impact on the next generation's parenting style. Since authoritative parenting is an important determinant of children's future achievement (Dornbusch et al, 1987;Baumrind, 1991;Kan & Tsai, 2005;Violato et al, 2011), in this context, this study extends the existing literature on parenting strategies and intergenerational transmission of human capital.…”

We examine and verify our hypothesis from a theoretical model that parents are more likely to be authoritative if they are from wealthy families. Using the data from the Preference Parameters Study of Osaka University, Japan, we find that there are significantly positive associations between respondents' authoritative parenting style and their family living standards when 15 years old. This result shows how childhood family economic status influences the intergenerational transmission of parenting style.
