研究表明,恐惧气质与童年焦虑有关。然而,仍然有许多因素调节和调解这种关系。在不同的研究中发现的两个具体因素是同伴受害和父母教养。本研究通过一个有调节的中介模型,探讨同伴伤害和养育方式对恐惧气质与儿童焦虑的关系的影响。参与者是从社区招募的124对亲子二人组。儿童年龄在7至12岁之间(56.5%为男性,93.5%为白种人),大多数父母为母亲。总的来说,数据与模型吻合得很好。分析表明,同伴伤害是气质对儿童焦虑关系的中介,而教养方式调节了这一中介效应。教养方式对气质与儿童焦虑的关系没有直接中介作用。研究结果表明,养育可能是儿童焦虑中同伴受害的一个特定的、而不是全局的保护因素。
Research has linked fearful temperament and childhood anxiety. Yet there remain numerous factors that moderate and mediate this relation. Two specific factors, identified in separate lines of research, are peer victimization and parenting. The current study tested a moderated mediational model to investigate the respective effects of peer victimization and nurturing parenting on the relation between fearful temperament and child anxiety. Participants were 124 parent-child dyads recruited from the community. Children were between the ages of 7 and 12 (56.5 % male, 93.5 % Caucasian) and most parents were mothers. Overall the data fit the model well. Analyses indicated that peer victimization was a mediator of the temperament to child anxiety relation, while nurturing parenting moderated this mediated effect. Nurturing parenting did not mediate the temperament to child anxiety relation directly. The findings suggest that nurturing parenting may be a specific, rather than global, protective factor for peer victimization in child anxiety.
