However, the meaning and the function of parental control are still controversial, especially when the cultural context is considered. The purpose of the present research was to explore the meaning and the function of parental control in Chinese culture. The participants were 189 preschoolers at age 4 to 5 and their mothers and teachers from Shanghai, China. Mothers were interviewed about the control strategies they utilize when they need to exert control over their children. Information on child surgency, compliance, and aggression was obtained from mothers and teachers. Chinese mothers reported control strategies that were classified into six categories. It was found that coercive behavioral control was most frequently used. Coercive behavioral control was negatively associated with child compliance and positively associated with child aggression. Other forms of control strategies and their links to child compliance and aggression were also examined. The role of child surgency in moderating the effects of maternal control strategies on child compliance and aggression was discussed. Practice or Policy: The present study highlighted the importance of understanding the cultural meaning of parental control.","PeriodicalId":11448,"journal":{"name":"Early Education and Development","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2023-08-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43680784","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study, part of a larger project, included 23 teachers delivering a small-group literacy intervention to 75 preschool children identified as at-risk for literacy difficulties. Hierarchical linear modeling results revealed that collective small-group behavioral engagement was predictive of child expressive vocabulary gains (d = 0.13), but teacher behavior management was not a significant predictor. Practice or Policy: The results demonstrate that high levels of collective small-group behavioral engagement during small-group literacy instruction contributed small positive effects to preschoolers’ expressive vocabulary skills. As many small-group interventions are intended for children at-risk for literacy difficulties, these results are promising because preschool children at-risk for literacy difficulties appear to benefit from the intervention when collective small-group behavioral engagement is high. Including activities that prompt strong child engagement may be a critical factor in realizing the full potential of small-group literacy instruction in young children.","PeriodicalId":11448,"journal":{"name":"Early Education and Development","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2023-08-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49591824","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
