这项研究探讨了文献中涉及亚洲人育儿方式的一个悖论：中国的育儿方式常常被描述为“控制型”或“专制型”。这些育儿方式已被发现可预测欧裔美国人较差的学业成绩，但中国人在学业上表现相当出色。这项研究表明，权威型和专制型的概念在某种程度上是以种族为中心的，没有抓住中国育儿的重要特征，尤其是在解释他们学业成功方面。对有学龄前儿童的华裔移民母亲和欧裔美国母亲进行了父母控制以及权威 - 专制型育儿方式的标准测量，以及涉及“训练”概念的中国育儿项目测量。在控制了她们的教育程度以及标准测量的得分后，发现中国母亲在“训练”理念上的得分明显更高。这种“训练”概念具有超越专制概念的重要特征，可能解释了中国人学业成功的原因。
This study addresses a paradox in the literature involving the parenting style of Asians: Chinese parenting has often been described as ''controlling'' or ''authoritarian.'' These styles of parenting have been found to be predictive of poor school achievement among European-Americans, and yet the Chinese are performing quite well in school. This study suggests that the concepts of authoritative and authoritarian are somewhat ethnocentric and do not capture the important features of Chinese child rearing, especially for explaining their school success. Immigrant Chinese and European-American mothers of preschool-aged children were administered standard measures of parental control and authoritative-authoritarian parenting style as well as Chinese child-rearing items involving the concept of ''training.'' After controlling for their education, and their scores on the standard measures, the Chinese mothers were found to score significantly higher on the ''training'' ideologies. This ''training'' concept has important features, beyond the authoritarian concept, that may explain Chinese school success.
