BACKGROUND
The study aimed to confirm previous findings showing links between household chaos and parenting in addition to examining whether household chaos was predictive of children's behaviour over and above parenting. In addition, we investigated whether household chaos acts as a moderator between parenting and children's behaviour.
METHOD
The sample consisted of 118 working- and middle-class two-parent English families with two children aged 4-8. Parents provided reports of the parent-child relationship, the level of chaos in their home and the children's problematic behaviour. The children also provided reports of parent-child relationships via a puppet interview.
RESULTS
The results confirmed the links between household chaos and parenting, and indicated that household chaos is predictive of children's problem behaviour over and above parenting. In addition, in a minority of cases, household chaos played a moderating role between parenting and children's behaviour in that it exacerbated the effect of poorer quality parenting on children's behaviour.
CONCLUSIONS
Household chaos is able to work in an additive way and predict children's problem behaviour over and above parenting, and is particularly potent when in combination with less positive/more negative parenting.
背景
本研究旨在证实先前有关家庭混乱与育儿之间联系的研究结果，此外还将考察家庭混乱是否能在育儿因素之外预测儿童行为。另外，我们还研究了家庭混乱是否在育儿与儿童行为之间起到调节作用。
方法
样本包括118个英国双职工和中产阶级双亲家庭，家中有两个4至8岁的孩子。父母提供了有关亲子关系、家庭混乱程度以及孩子问题行为的报告。孩子们也通过木偶访谈提供了亲子关系的报告。
结果
结果证实了家庭混乱与育儿之间的联系，并表明家庭混乱在育儿因素之外能够预测儿童的问题行为。此外，在少数情况下，家庭混乱在育儿与儿童行为之间起到了调节作用，即它加剧了质量较差的育儿方式对儿童行为的影响。
结论
家庭混乱能够以累加的方式起作用，在育儿因素之外预测儿童的问题行为，并且当与不太积极/更消极的育儿方式相结合时，其影响尤为显著。
