Little is known about parental socialization processes for youth participants from different cultural backgrounds. The purpose of this study was to examine parental influence on self-perceptions, task values, and achievement behaviors among female adolescents from two cultures using Eccles' expectancy-value theory (Eccles et al., 1983). Twelve Anglo Canadian and nine East Indian female adolescents were interviewed about perceptions of parental influence on expectancy-value constructs for sport and academic domains. Inductive and deductive content analyses were performed to identify lower and higher order themes from interview responses. Similarities and differences in perceived parental influence emerged for girls of both cultural groups and in both domains. Our findings support links among expectancy-value constructs and highlight cultural variations in parental socialization of achievement cognitions and behaviors in multiple domains.
对于来自不同文化背景的青年参与者,父母的社会化过程鲜为人知。本研究旨在利用 Eccles 的期望价值理论(Eccles 等人,1983),考察父母对来自两种文化的女性青少年自我认知、任务价值观和成就行为的影响。对 12 名英裔加拿大和 9 名东印度裔女性青少年进行了访谈,了解她们对父母在体育和学术领域影响期望价值结构的看法。采用归纳和演绎内容分析方法,从访谈回答中确定了较低和较高层次的主题。来自两个文化群体的女孩在两个领域都表现出了相似和不同的父母影响感知。我们的研究结果支持期望价值结构之间的联系,并强调了在多个领域中,成就认知和行为的父母社会化存在文化差异。
