尽管青少年犯罪的流行和文化对父母行为和青少年结果的影响，很少有研究探讨父母温暖和青少年犯罪之间的关联跨文化。因此，本研究旨在确定青少年犯罪水平的文化差异及其与父母温暖的关系。首先，使用青少年健康纵向研究（Add Health）的美国样本，研究了青少年犯罪水平和父母温暖对青少年犯罪的保护作用。接下来，同样的两个研究问题进行了调查，使用韩国青年小组调查（KYPS）的韩国样本。最后，研究了来自美国和韩国的样本之间这种关联的差异。独立样本t检验的结果显示，韩国青少年的犯罪水平低于美国青少年。多元回归的结果也证明了父母温暖对美国青少年犯罪的保护作用。此外，父母温暖的国家互动表明，父母温暖的保护作用在统计上更强的美国青少年比韩国青少年。研究结果的影响表明，文化差异的看法，父母的温暖和它的作用，减少青少年犯罪。
Despite the prevalence of delinquency during adolescence and the influence of culture on parenting behaviors and adolescent outcomes, few studies have examined the association between parental warmth and adolescent delinquency cross-culturally. Thus, this study sought to identify cultural differences in the levels of delinquency and their associations with parental warmth. First, the levels of delinquency and the protective effect of parental warmth on delinquency were examined using a U.S. sample from the Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health (Add Health). Next, the same two research questions were investigated using a Korean sample from the Korean Youth Panel Survey (KYPS). Finally, differences in such associations were examined between the samples from the U.S. and South Korea. The findings from the independent sample t-test revealed that the levels of delinquency were lower for Korean adolescents than American adolescents. The results from multiple regression also demonstrated the protective effect of parental warmth on delinquency for American adolescents. Further, parental warmth by country interaction suggested that the protective effect of parental warmth was statistically stronger for American adolescents than Korean adolescents. Implications of the findings suggested cultural differences in perceptions of parental warmth and its role in reducing adolescent delinquency.
