A controlled study was conducted in Sydney to assess the reported characteristics of Jewish and Greek parents. Using a measure of fundamental parental characteristics the 81 Jewish subjects differed from controls only in scoring their mothers as less caring. The 125 Greek subjects scored both parents as more overprotective; further investigation revealed that the Greek parents were overprotective of their daughters only. Findings in the latter study suggest that overprotection by Greek parents may be influenced slightly by the age of the child when migrating, and that such a cultural pattern is resistant to acculturation effects.
在悉尼进行了一项对照研究，以评估犹太和希腊裔父母所报告的特征。使用一项衡量基本父母特征的指标，81名犹太受试者与对照组的差异仅在于他们对母亲关怀程度的评分较低。125名希腊受试者对父母双方的评分均为过度保护；进一步调查发现，希腊父母仅对女儿过度保护。后一项研究的结果表明，希腊父母的过度保护可能会受到移民时孩子年龄的轻微影响，而且这种文化模式对文化适应效应具有抵抗力。
