摘要

母亲教育与孩子早期的结果有关。然而，可能解释这种关系的几个机制仍然没有得到充分的探索。利用智利1097名12-15个月大儿童的数据，我们估计了儿童认知和语言结果之间的母亲教育差距。从生物生态学的角度来看，我们探索了母亲教育可能影响儿童发展的潜在途径，如儿童特征、母子互动的数量和质量，以及家庭刺激的可用性。我们发现，母亲教育水平最低和最高的儿童在儿童认知、表达语言和接受语言方面的平均母亲教育差距分别为0.36、0.31和0.25标准差。中介分析表明，母亲的压力和抑郁以及家庭环境的质量在母亲教育与儿童语言和认知发展之间起中介作用。

A mediation analysis to disentangle relations between maternal education and early child development

Maternal education is associated with early child outcomes. However, the several mechanisms that may explain this relationship remain underexplored. Using data from 1,097 children aged 12–15 months in Chile, we estimate the maternal education gap across child cognitive and language outcomes. Following a bioecological perspective, we explore potential pathways by which maternal education might influence child development, such as child characteristics, the quantity and quality of mother–child interactions, and the availability of home stimulation. We found an average maternal education gap between children with mothers with the lowest and the highest educational levels of 0.36, 0.31, and 0.25 standard deviation in child cognition, expressive language, and receptive language, respectively. The mediational analysis showed that maternal stress and depression and the quality of the home environment mediated the relation between maternal education and child language and cognitive development.

期刊介绍： The International Journal of Behavioral Development is the official journal of the International Society for the Study of Behavioural Development, which exists to promote the discovery, dissemination and application of knowledge about developmental processes at all stages of the life span - infancy, childhood, adolescence, adulthood and old age. The Journal is already the leading international outlet devoted to reporting interdisciplinary research on behavioural development, and has now, in response to the rapidly developing fields of behavioural genetics, neuroscience and developmental psychopathology, expanded its scope to these and other related new domains of scholarship. In this way, it provides a truly world-wide platform for researchers which can facilitate a greater integrated lifespan perspective. In addition to original empirical research, the Journal also publishes theoretical and review papers, methodological papers, and other work of scientific interest that represents a significant advance in the understanding of any aspect of behavioural development. The Journal also publishes papers on behaviour development research within or across particular geographical regions. Papers are therefore considered from a wide range of disciplines, covering all aspects of the lifespan. Articles on topics of eminent current interest, such as research on the later life phases, biological processes in behaviour development, cross-national, and cross-cultural issues, and interdisciplinary research in general, are particularly welcome.
