In this investigation, the authors explored the impact of individuals' cultural values on their partners' relationship adjustment and perceptions of their parenting relationship. The authors examined Mexican cultural values of simpatía (i.e., harmonious interpersonal relationships) and respeto (i.e., respect for authority figures) using a sample of 50 Mexican-origin couples in southern Arizona. Congruent with their hypotheses, results supported the proposition that fathers' simpatía is positively associated with both relationship adjustment and the parenting relationship as reported by mothers, whereas fathers' respeto is negatively associated with both relationship adjustment and the parenting relationship as reported by mothers. However, the authors found little evidence of a contribution of mothers' cultural values to fathers' perceptions of either relationship adjustment or the parenting relationship. They interpret these findings to suggest that mothers' relationship adjustment and parenting relationship are more sensitive to and dependent on fathers' degree of traditional cultural values among Mexican-origin families.
在这项调查中，作者探讨了个体文化价值观对其伴侣关系调适以及对亲子关系认知的影响。作者以亚利桑那州南部50对墨西哥裔夫妇为样本，研究了墨西哥文化中的“simpatía”（即和谐的人际关系）和“respeto”（即对权威人物的尊重）价值观。与他们的假设一致，结果支持了这一观点：父亲的“simpatía”与母亲报告的关系调适和亲子关系均呈正相关，而父亲的“respeto”与母亲报告的关系调适和亲子关系均呈负相关。然而，作者几乎没有发现母亲的文化价值观对父亲的关系调适认知或亲子关系认知有贡献的证据。他们对这些发现的解释是，在墨西哥裔家庭中，母亲的关系调适和亲子关系对父亲的传统文化价值观程度更为敏感且依赖。
