本研究以429个内城家庭为样本，探讨了经济压力对非裔美国人和欧洲裔美国人父母的情绪困扰和育儿行为的影响。低收入和不稳定的工作/收入都会增加经济压力，从而增加情绪困扰的风险和父母无能为力的信念。在黑人家庭中，单亲家庭和冲突的婚姻破坏了父母的福祉，放大了这种影响。与白人父母相比，非裔美国父母的父母效能感更能预测儿童管理策略，这些策略可以增加儿童的发展机会，并将行为风险降至最低。这些结果是从两个种族群体之间用于育儿的邻里资源的差异、可获得性和使用来讨论的。
Using a sample of 429 inner-city families, this study traces the effects of economic pressure to the emotional distress and parenting behaviors of African American and European American parents. Both low income and unstable work/income enhance the risk of emotional distress and beliefs of parental ineffectiveness by increasing economic pressure. Among Black families, single-parent households and conflicted marriages magnify such effects by undermining parent well-being. Compared with White parents, a sense of parental efficacy among African American parents is more predictive of child management strategies that enhance developmental opportunities for children and minimize behavioral risks. These results are discussed in terms of the differential, availability and use of neighborhood resources for parenting between the two racial groups.
