这项研究从统计建模的角度探讨了成为文化群体的一部分意味着什么。我们提出的方法比较了家庭行为中文化群体内和文化群体间的变异性。我们使用青少年发展和养育的跨文化研究，涉及1296个8奥尔兹的孩子和他们的父母（在9个国家的多文化）的纵向数据的三个两年一次的波的方法。家庭成员完成了关于父母的消极和积极性，儿童的学业和社会情绪调整，以及对父母和青少年行为的态度的调查。使用多水平模型计算文化组、个人和个人内水平的方差估计值。在纵向一致的方差中，大部分是在文化组内，而不是在文化组之间，尽管组间差异很大。这种方法来量化文化群体的变异性可能被证明是有价值的，当应用到文化适应的定量研究。(C)2017年，为青少年服务的专业人士基金会。由爱思唯尔有限公司出版。保留所有权利。
This study grapples with what it means to be part of a cultural group, from a statistical modeling perspective. The method we present compares within- and between-cultural group variability, in behaviors in families. We demonstrate the method using a crosscultural study of adolescent development and parenting, involving three biennial waves of longitudinal data from 1296 eight-year-olds and their parents (multiple cultures in nine countries). Family members completed surveys about parental negativity and positivity, child academic and social-emotional adjustment, and attitudes about parenting and adolescent behavior. Variance estimates were computed at the cultural group, person, and within-person level using multilevel models. Of the longitudinally consistent variance, most was within and not between cultural groups although there was a wide range of between-group differences. This approach to quantifying cultural group variability may prove valuable when applied to quantitative studies of acculturation.
