本研究考察了中国移民父母的孝道观念。我们引入了孝道的概念,并讨论了现代化和移民经历对当代中国移民面临的挑战的影响,因为他们协调了传统价值观与美国社会历史变化和子女养育的要求。对常用量表的因子分析显示了孝道的多个方面,并反映了对传统观点的修改。访谈结果指出,孝道的各个方面在数量上没有得到充分的体现,并暴露了与孝道价值观有关的子女养育方面的具体挑战。这些发现表明,与孝道的文化适应相关的期望和策略的演变。一个关键要求是制定与父母价值观相一致的战略,同时保持对儿童独特观点的尊重。结论侧重于发展理解当代移民中国人孝道概念和意义演变的方法。
This study examines Chinese immigrant parents' perceptions of filial piety. The concept of filial piety is introduced and we discuss the impacts of modernization and immigration experience on the challenges faced by contemporary Chinese immigrants as they reconcile traditional values with the demands of sociohistorical change and child rearing in the United States. Factor analysis of a commonly applied scale demonstrates multiple aspects of filial piety and reflects modifications from traditional views. Interview results point to aspects of filial piety not fully represented in the quantitative scale and expose specific challenges in child rearing related to filial values.. These findings suggest the evolution of expectations and strategies related to a cultural adaptation of filial piety. One key demand is for strategies consistent with parental values while maintaining respect for children's unique point of view. The conclusions focus on the development of approaches to understanding the evolving conceptualization and meaning of filial piety for contemporary immigrant Chinese.
