In light of the recent policy reform in China, the present study aims to investigate the potential impact of family SES on the quality of the parent-child relationship (PCR) through the serial mediating role of participation in organized visual art activities in privately owned centers (VAA1) and parent-supervised visual art activities (VAA2) across genders.
A cross-sectional study was conducted in anonymous province located in the southwestern part of China. A total of 1624 primary school students aged 7 to 14 years were recruited through a random sampling technique. Subsequently, anonymous survey responses were taken from all students. Multiple serial mediation analysis was performed by using AMOS 21.0 software to attain the primary aim of the study.
According to the total sample model result, SES has a significant direct effect on the parent-child relationship (β = 0.47, p < 0.001), children's participation in VAA1 (β = 0.197, p < 0.001) and VAA2 (β = 0.269, p < 0.001). Moreover, the mediation model result indicates that SES has a stronger indirect effect on the parent-child relationship through a mediating role of VAA1 (β = 0.08, p < 0.01; β = 0.04, p < 0.01) for female than male samples. However, the mediating effect of VVA2 between SES and the parent-child relationship in the female (β = 0.08, p < 0.001) and male (β = 0.08, p < 0.01) models is equal, although female gender is highly significant. Ultimately, the serial mediation analysis result affirms that the serially mediating role of VAA1 and VAA2 between SES and the parent-child relationship was equal across genders (β = 0.001, p < 0.001; β = 0.001, p < 0.001).
Unlike previous studies, this study's multigroup model shows that both male and female children can equally restore their relationship with their parents by having substantial participation in both VAA1 and VAA2. Thus, parents ought to play the main role in facilitating and supporting children's visual art activities without parenting that shows a gender bias.
鉴于中国最近的政策改革，本研究旨在通过性别间的组织视觉艺术活动（VAA1）和父母监督的视觉艺术活动（VAA2）的串联中介作用，调查家庭社会经济地位（SES）对亲子关系（PCR）质量的潜在影响。
本横断面研究在中国西南部的一个匿名省份进行。通过随机抽样技术，共招募了 1624 名 7 至 14 岁的小学生。随后，从所有学生那里获得匿名调查回应。使用 AMOS 21.0 软件进行多项串联中介分析，以达到研究的主要目的。
根据总样本模型结果，SES 对亲子关系（β=0.47，p<0.001）、儿童参与 VAA1（β=0.197，p<0.001）和 VAA2（β=0.269，p<0.001）有显著的直接影响。此外，中介模型结果表明，SES 对亲子关系的间接影响更强，通过女性样本中 VAA1（β=0.08，p<0.01；β=0.04，p<0.01）和男性样本中 VAA1（β=0.08，p<0.01）的中介作用。然而，VVA2 在 SES 和亲子关系之间的中介作用在女性（β=0.08，p<0.001）和男性（β=0.08，p<0.01）模型中是相等的，尽管女性性别高度显著。最终，序列中介分析结果证实，SES 和亲子关系之间的 VAA1 和 VAA2 的序列中介作用在性别间是相等的（β=0.001，p<0.001；β=0.001，p<0.001）。
与以往的研究不同，本研究的多组模型表明，男性和女性儿童都可以通过大量参与 VAA1 和 VAA2 平等地恢复与父母的关系。因此，父母应该在促进和支持孩子的视觉艺术活动方面发挥主要作用，而不会表现出性别偏见的育儿方式。
