一般养育方式在多大程度上代表了不同种族人群的喂养方式，目前还没有很好的记录。现有的儿童喂养措施几乎完全集中于欧美父母的特定行为。开发了一种有效且可靠的工具来确定低收入少数族裔学龄前儿童父母的喂养方式。 231 名家长（130 名西班牙裔；101 名非裔美国人）填写了有关喂养方式和养育方式的调查问卷。根据自我报告的喂养行为，父母被分配到四种喂养方式（专制，n = 84；权威，n = 34；放纵，n = 80；不参与，n = 33）。通过将喂养方式与一般养育和专制喂养实践的独立测量相关联来评估收敛有效性。专制喂养方式与较高水平的一般父母控制和专制喂养实践相关。另外，权威喂养方式与父母较高水平的总体反应能力相关。在两种宽容的喂养方式中，西班牙裔父母更有可能放纵，而非洲裔美国父母更有可能不参与。此外，在对儿童体重指数的独立测量中发现了不同喂养方式之间的差异。 (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. 保留所有权利。
The extent to which general parenting represents feeding styles in ethnically diverse populations is not well documented. Existing measures of child feeding have focused almost exclusively on specific behaviors of European-American parents. A valid and reliable instrument was developed to identify feeding styles in parents of low-income minority preschoolers. Two hundred thirty-one parents (130 Hispanic; 101 African-American) completed questionnaires on feeding practices and parenting styles. Based on self-reported feeding behavior, parents were assigned to four feeding styles (authoritarian, n=84; authoritative, n=34; indulgent, n=80; anduninvolved, n=33). Convergent validity was evaluated by relating feeding styles to independent measures of general parenting and authoritarian feeding practices. Authoritarian feeding styles were associated with higher levels of general parental control and authoritarian feeding practices. Alternatively, authoritative feeding styles were associated with higher levels of general parental responsiveness. Among the two permissive feeding styles, Hispanic parents were more likely to be indulgent, whereas African-American parents were more likely to be uninvolved. Further, differences were found among the feeding styles on an independent measure of child's body mass index. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
