Abstract

Using propositions in cultural-ecological and maternal and paternal engagement models, this study utilized the 2018 UNICEF Multiple Indicator Cluster Surveys to examine which sociodemographic factors were associated with fathers’ and mothers’ cognitive engagement and the associations between parental and maternal cognitive engagement and preschoolers’ literacy skills in Amerindian, Maroon, Creole, Javanese, Hindustani, and Mixed-ethnic families in Suriname (N = 1,008). After establishing measurement invariance in constructs across ethnic groups, analyses revealed few consistent sociodemographic predictors of paternal and maternal cognitive engagement. Patterns of associations between paternal and maternal cognitive engagement and children’s literacy skills were not uniform across ethnic groups. Data have implications for understanding mothers’ and fathers’ contributions to children’s early literacy skills development and for developing parenting intervention programs in Suriname.

苏里南六个族裔的父母认知参与和学龄前儿童识字技能

本研究利用文化生态和父母参与模型中的命题，利用2018年联合国儿童基金会多指标聚类调查，研究了哪些社会人口因素与父亲和母亲的认知参与有关，以及苏里南美洲印第安人、栗色人、克里奥尔人、爪哇人、印度斯坦人和混血家庭中父母和母亲的认知参与与学龄前儿童识字技能之间的关系(N = 1008)。在建立了跨种族结构的测量不变性后，分析显示很少有一致的社会人口统计学预测父亲和母亲的认知参与。父亲和母亲的认知参与与儿童识字技能之间的关联模式在不同种族群体中并不统一。数据对了解母亲和父亲对儿童早期识字技能发展的贡献以及在苏里南制定父母干预方案具有重要意义。
