Abstract

Household chaos has been shown to adversely associate with children's behavioral adjustment. However, the mechanism underlying the relationship between household chaos and children's behaviors is not yet fully understood. The current study proposes mindful parenting as an important mediating and moderating factor in the relationship between household chaos and child problem behaviors. This study also examines cultural influences in this process, comparing the UK and Türkiye, considering both mothers' and children's perspectives on mindful parenting. Cross-sectional questionnaires were administered to mothers and their children aged 11–16 years in the UK (n = 90; 53.3% girl) and Türkiye (n = 154; 54.5% girl) in 2021. Mother reports of the Confusion, Hubbub, and Order Scale and the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire, as well as mother and child reports of Mindful Parenting Inventories for Parents (MPIP) and Children (MPIC), were used to assess household chaos, child problem behaviors, and mindful parenting, respectively. Multiple-group path analysis revealed that household chaos was a significant indirect predictor of child problem behaviors via mindful parenting in both countries. Furthermore, simple slopes analysis showed that mindful parenting moderated the link between household chaos and child problem behaviors in the UK. Overall, our study sheds light on the importance of micro- and macro-environmental factors and their interactions in children's adjustment.

家庭混乱与儿童问题行为:对用心养育的中介和调节作用的跨文化研究
家庭混乱已被证明与儿童的行为适应有不利关系。然而,家庭混乱与儿童行为之间的关系机制尚未完全明了。本研究提出,用心教养是家庭混乱与儿童问题行为之间关系的重要中介和调节因素。本研究还对这一过程中的文化影响因素进行了研究,并对英国和土耳其进行了比较,同时考虑了母亲和儿童对正念养育的看法。本研究于 2021 年对英国(90 人;53.3% 为女孩)和土耳其(154 人;54.5% 为女孩)11-16 岁的母亲及其子女进行了横向问卷调查。母亲的 "混乱、喧闹、秩序量表 "和 "优势与困难问卷 "报告,以及母亲和孩子的 "父母心智养育清单"(MPIP)和 "儿童心智养育清单"(MPIC)报告,分别用于评估家庭混乱、孩子问题行为和心智养育。多组路径分析显示,在这两个国家,家庭混乱是通过正念养育间接预测儿童问题行为的一个重要因素。此外,简单斜坡分析表明,在英国,正念养育调节了家庭混乱与儿童问题行为之间的联系。总之,我们的研究揭示了微观和宏观环境因素及其相互作用在儿童适应过程中的重要性。
