In Turkey, responsive behaviors toward kin are expected from children. Despite this, we know little about the factors that influence young Turkish children's prosocial behaviors. The goal was to explore how temperament and parenting are related to children's prosocial development in Turkey. A total of 293 Turkish children (M = 49 months; 48.12% females) were followed up for 3 years. Mothers completed measures of their child's prosocial behaviors, as well as measures of their warmth, inductive reasoning, and the child's approach and reactivity. Maternal warmth predicted children's reactivity, and maternal induction predicted children's sociability. Children's reactivity was inversely related to children's helping behavior and sociability was related to more prosocial behavior. Maternal warmth had indirect links with helping through lessening children's reactivity.
在土耳其，人们期望孩子对亲属有回应的行为。尽管如此，我们对影响土耳其幼儿亲社会行为的因素知之甚少。本研究旨在探讨气质和教养方式如何与土耳其儿童的亲社会发展相关。共有 293 名土耳其儿童（M=49 个月；48.12%为女性）被追踪了 3 年。母亲们完成了孩子亲社会行为的测量，以及对其温暖、归纳推理和孩子的趋近与反应性的测量。母亲的温暖预测了孩子的反应性，而母亲的诱导则预测了孩子的社交能力。孩子的反应性与他们的帮助行为呈负相关，而社交能力则与更多的亲社会行为相关。母亲的温暖通过减少孩子的反应性与帮助行为呈间接关系。
