Abstract

Despite home visiting’s established legacy, the potential influence of intersecting parental characteristics on parent–worker relationships is less understood. This study examines the main and interaction effects of parents’ demographic characteristics on positive relationships with workers in home visiting and compares whether and how these effects differ between fathers and mothers. This study analyzed 130 mothers and 180 fathers who participated in home visiting services. Immigrant status was a significant predictor of positive worker relationships for mothers and fathers, whereas ethnicity was only significant for fathers. Interaction analyses indicated that U.S.-born Hispanic/Latinx fathers faced greater challenges in building positive worker relationships than their foreign-born counterparts. These findings highlight the importance of developing gender-specific and culturally responsive strategies to enhance parent–worker relationships.

家访中父母与工作者的关系:父母性别、种族和移民身份的交集

尽管家访已经确立了传统，但父母特征交叉对亲子关系的潜在影响却鲜为人知。本研究考察了父母人口统计学特征对家访中与工人的积极关系的主要和交互影响，并比较了这些影响在父亲和母亲之间是否以及如何不同。本研究分析了参与家访服务的130名母亲和180名父亲。移民身份是母亲和父亲积极的工作关系的重要预测因素，而种族只对父亲有意义。互动分析表明，在美国出生的西班牙裔/拉丁裔父亲在建立积极的员工关系方面比在外国出生的父亲面临更大的挑战。这些发现强调了制定针对性别和文化的战略以加强父母与工人关系的重要性。
