The current review paper summarizes the literature on parental emotion socialization in ethnically diverse families in the United States. Models of emotion socialization have been primarily developed using samples of European American parents and children. As such, current categorizations of "adaptive" and "maladaptive" emotion socialization practices may not be applicable to individuals from different ethnic backgrounds. The review examines current models of emotion socialization, with particular attention paid to the demographic breakdown of the studies used to develop these models. Additionally, the review highlights studies examining emotion socialization practices in African American, Asian American, and Latin American families. The review is synthesized with summarizing themes of similarities and differences across ethnic groups, and implications for culturally sensitive research and practice are discussed.
本综述论文总结了美国多元化种族家庭中父母情绪社会化的文献。情绪社会化模型主要是使用欧洲裔美国家长和孩子的样本开发的。因此，当前关于“适应性”和“不良适应性”情绪社会化实践的分类可能不适用于来自不同种族背景的个体。本综述考察了当前的情绪社会化模型，特别关注用于开发这些模型的研究的人口统计学细分。此外，本综述还强调了对非裔美国人、亚裔美国人和拉丁裔美国家庭情绪社会化实践的研究。通过总结不同种族群体的相似和不同之处，对文化敏感的研究和实践进行了讨论。
