Abstract

This study evaluated whether children's emotional display rule behavior and gender moderated associations between mothers' affective balance and preschoolers' (46 boys, 44 girls) social initiations and prosocial behavior, which were assessed using semi-naturalistic observational methods. Seventy-three of the dyads were White and 17 were Asian. The association between mothers' affective balance and prosocial behavior was positive for children high in emotional display rule behavior and negative for children who were low in this behavior. Associations between mothers' affective balance and social initiations and prosocial behavior were negative, but only for boys. In contrast, the relation between mothers' affective balance and prosocial behavior was positive for girls. Findings can inform parent and child-focused interventions targeting parental socialization of emotion and its role in young children's peer competence.

母亲情绪表达与学龄前儿童社交技能:情绪表现规则和性别的作用
本研究采用半自然的观察方法,探讨了儿童情绪表现规则行为和性别对母亲情感平衡与学龄前儿童(46名男孩,44名女孩)社会启动和亲社会行为之间的关联是否有调节作用。其中73对是白人,17对是亚洲人。母亲情感平衡与亲社会行为的关系对情绪表现规则行为高的儿童为正相关,对情绪表现规则行为低的儿童为负相关。母亲的情感平衡与社会启动和亲社会行为之间呈负相关,但仅适用于男孩。母亲的情感平衡与亲社会行为在女孩中呈显著正相关。研究结果可以为父母和以儿童为中心的干预措施提供信息,这些干预措施针对父母的情感社会化及其在幼儿同伴能力中的作用。

期刊介绍: The Journal of Genetic Psychology is devoted to research and theory in the field of developmental psychology. It encompasses a life-span approach, so in addition to manuscripts devoted to infancy, childhood, and adolescence, articles on adulthood and aging are also published. We accept submissions in the area of educational psychology as long as they are developmental in nature. Submissions in cross cultural psychology are accepted, but they must add to our understanding of human development in a comparative global context. Applied, descriptive, and qualitative articles are occasionally accepted, as are replications and refinements submitted as brief reports. The review process for all submissions to The Journal of Genetic Psychology consists of double blind review.
