For the past 45 years researchers in the field of parental-child interactions have focused on the infant and primary caretaker(s) bond, and have explored the impact of attachment 'style' on the long-term psychological, social and cognitive well-being of the child. This study adds to the body of knowledge by including culture in the investigation of the relationship between parenting style and depression by studying Chinese adults living in the United States who are at various levels of cultural change. Previous exploration has unfortunately been limited to research with primarily Caucasian sample populations. This study explores the relationship between parenting style, level of culture change, and depression in Chinese-Americans. In addition, this research sheds light on the way cultural values and changes therein influence the relationship between parents and their children and how the resulting parenting style correlates with the presence of depression. This research provides more evidence for the important relationship between maternal and paternal care ratings and adult depression. As this is the first study to utilize the PBI in a Chinese and Chinese-American sample, it begins to provide some insight into the possible normative differences. One such difference appears to be the diminished role of the high protection ratings in depression when compared to previous research findings. Parent's occupation and education also appear to have a relationship to adult depression. Mothers' educational attainment, whether or not they work outside the home, and in what type of employment, appears to have a relationship with adult children's emotional well-being. Paternal caring, although important, does not appear to compensate fully for lack of maternal care. There seems to be a marked increased possibility for adult depression when neither parent expresses warmth, caring, and affection. Opini Anda Klik untuk menuliskan opini Anda tentang koleksi ini!
