经历粮食不安全的父母不仅面临着获取食物的不确定性，而且还面临着一种无形的情感负担，这种负担可能会影响他们的养育行为，最终影响他们的孩子。在我们的研究中，我们调查了成人食品不安全与父母恶化的联系，以及这种恶化是否影响了他们的孩子的行为。结果基于2010-2011年《幼儿期纵向调查》幼儿园班的数据，采用一差回归分析发现，出现食物不安全的一年级家长（N = 7820）的父母教养加重程度较高（0.525,p < 0.01）。我们对食物安全（n = 1600）和不安全父母（n = 470）的匹配样本进行了中介分析，发现成人食物不安全与儿童行为没有直接关联；相反，父母的加重与注意力集中（-0.062,p < 0.05）和抑制控制（-0.093,p < 0.001）的降低有间接关系。我们的研究结果强调了父母在传递食物不安全对儿童行为的影响方面的重要性。
Parents who experience food insecurity face not only uncertainty in obtaining food, but an invisible emotional burden, one that can potentially influence both their parenting behaviors and ultimately, their children. In our study, we investigated adult food insecurity's link to parents' aggravation and whether that aggravation influenced their children's behaviors. Results, based on data from the Early Childhood Longitudinal Survey, Kindergarten Class of 2010-2011 using first-difference regression, showed that parents (N = 7,820) of first graders who became food insecure experienced heightened parenting aggravation (0.525; p < .01). Our mediation analysis on a matched sample of food secure (n = 1,600) and insecure parents (n = 470) revealed that adult food insecurity was not directly associated with children's behaviors; rather, it was indirectly related to lowered attentional focus (-0.062; p < .05) and inhibitory control (-0.093; p < .001) via parenting aggravation. Our findings underscore the importance of parenting aggravation in transmitting the effects of food insecurity on children's behaviors.
