Abstract

We examined the longitudinal associations between stressful family life events at 4 years of age and children's internalizing and externalizing behaviors at 7 years of age, whether family functioning and parental warmth (i.e., mothers' warmth, fathers' warmth) mediated those associations, and whether the associations varied by fathers' involvement in Korean families. Participants were 1,703 families, including mothers (M_age = 34 years; SD = 3.70 years), fathers (M_age = 37 years; SD = 3.97 years), and children (M_age = 51 months; SD = 1.22 months) from the Panel Study on Korean Children. Results revealed that stressful family life events were positively associated with children's internalizing and externalizing behaviors but not via family functioning and parental warmth. Family functioning and mothers' warmth successively mediated the association between father involvement and children's internalizing and externalizing behaviors. Father involvement moderated the association between stressful family life events and children's externalizing behaviors. The findings highlight that father involvement may play a protective role in children's externalizing behaviors when Korean families experience stressful situations.

韩国儿童社会行为健康中的家庭生活压力事件和父亲参与。

我们研究了4岁时的家庭生活压力事件与7岁时儿童的内化和外化行为之间的纵向联系，家庭功能和父母的温暖（即母亲的温暖、父亲的温暖）是否对这些联系有中介作用，以及父亲在韩国家庭中的参与程度是否会导致这些联系的变化。研究对象是韩国儿童小组研究中的1703个家庭，包括母亲（年龄=34岁；标准差=3.70岁）、父亲（年龄=37岁；标准差=3.97岁）和孩子（年龄=51个月；标准差=1.22个月）。结果显示，压力性家庭生活事件与儿童的内化行为和外化行为呈正相关，但与家庭功能和父母的温暖程度无关。家庭功能和母亲的温暖先后调解了父亲参与与儿童内化和外化行为之间的关系。父亲参与调节了家庭生活压力事件与儿童外化行为之间的关系。研究结果表明，当韩国家庭遭遇压力情境时，父亲的参与可能会对儿童的外化行为起到保护作用。(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, 版权所有）。
