项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Asians are one of the fastest growing ethnic groups in the United States, growing by 48% (from 6.9 million to 10.2 million) compared to an increase of 13.2% for the total population between 1990 and 2000. As of 2000, 3.6% of the total U.S. population was Asian, with Chinese being the largest Asian ethnic group. Recent research indicates that Chinese American youth and adults experience greater psychological and social emotional difficulties than their Euro-American counterparts, including anxiety, depression and suicidal risk. Although early parenting practices associated with preschoolers' social development have been consistently shown to predict later psychosocial adjustment in North American samples, the specific parenting practices associated with Chinese immigrant preschoolers' social skill development have yet to be examined. Moreover, the unique role of immigrant Chinese father and mothers has been neglected. Although immigration may present tremendous parenting challenges to families, successful or unsuccessful parenting is dependent on the socio-cultural context and parents' characteristics. Thus, the purpose of this study is to examine the role of parenting in mediating the effects of immigrant Chinese parents' characteristics and the social context on their children's social skills (aggression, withdrawal, prosocial behaviors). Specifically, we aim to analyze the mediating role of parenting (parenting styles, indigenous practices, management of their children's social network) in the association between (1) psychological and behavioral acculturation, (2) psychological well-being, (3) stress, (4) social support network, (5) Chinese context, and child behavioral outcomes. These aims will be examined using cross-sectional data from immigrant Chinese fathers and mothers of 200 preschoolers regarding their characteristics, social context, and parenting. Children's aggressive, withdrawn/solitary, and prosocial behaviors will be rated by their preschool teachers. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: The benefits to public health of the proposed research include contributing to the literature on the rapidly increasing population of immigrant Chinese families in the US, particularly in regions with smaller existing Chinese communities. Given that Chinese American youth experience greater psychological and social emotional difficulties than their Euro-American counterparts (including anxiety, depression and suicidal risk), findings from this investigation will provide needed information on individual and sociocultural factors related to Chinese immigrant parenting of preschoolers and subsequent child behavioral outcomes that may set the stage for later psychosocial adjustment difficulties and successes. These results will contribute important scientific and practical information to guide community, regional, and national planning, policy development and advocacy regarding the healthy adaptation of immigrant children and their parents.

描述（申请人提供）：亚裔是美国增长最快的族裔群体之一，增长了48%（从690万到1020万），而1990年至2000年总人口增长了13.2%。截至2000年，美国总人口的3.6%是亚裔，其中华人是最大的亚裔群体。最近的研究表明，华裔美国青年和成年人比他们的欧美同行经历更大的心理和社会情感困难，包括焦虑，抑郁和自杀风险。尽管在北美样本中，与学龄前儿童社会性发展相关的早期养育实践一直被证明可以预测后期的心理社会适应，但与中国移民学龄前儿童社会技能发展相关的具体养育实践还有待研究。此外，中国移民父母的独特作用被忽视了。虽然移民可能给家庭带来巨大的养育挑战，但成功或不成功的养育取决于社会文化背景和父母的特点。因此，本研究的目的是检验父母教养方式在移民父母的特征和社会背景对子女社会技能（攻击、退缩、亲社会行为）的影响中的中介作用。具体而言，我们的目的是分析父母教养方式（父母教养方式，本土做法，管理他们的孩子的社会网络）之间的关联的中介作用（1）心理和行为文化适应，（2）心理幸福感，（3）压力，（4）社会支持网络，（5）中国的背景，和儿童的行为结果。这些目标将被检查使用横截面数据从移民中国父亲和母亲的200学龄前儿童有关他们的特点，社会背景，和养育。幼儿的攻击性，孤僻/孤独和亲社会行为将由他们的幼儿园教师评定。公共卫生相关性：拟议研究对公共卫生的好处包括为美国华人移民家庭人口迅速增加的文献做出贡献，特别是在现有华人社区较小的地区。鉴于华裔美国青年经历更大的心理和社会情感的困难比他们的欧美同行（包括焦虑，抑郁和自杀风险），从这项调查的结果将提供所需的信息，个人和社会文化因素有关的中国移民养育学龄前儿童和随后的儿童行为的结果，可能为以后的心理社会调整的困难和成功的阶段。这些结果将提供重要的科学和实用信息，以指导社区，区域和国家规划，政策制定和宣传移民儿童及其父母的健康适应。
