The present study examined associations between sociocultural factors and self-regulation (parent-report, teacher-report, laboratory tasks), and prospective relations between self-regulation and behavioral adjustment (parent-, teacher-, child-report) in a socioeconomically diverse sample of Chinese American children in immigrant families (N = 258, Wave 1 age = 6-9 years, Wave 2 age = 9-11 years, 52% boys, 57% low-income) in a longitudinal study (2007-2011) during early elementary school years. Family income uniquely related to a self-regulation latent factor ( = .22), and parent-child Chinese orientation gaps were associated with parent-reported effortful control ( = .40). Self-regulation at W1 negatively predicted parent- and teacher-reported behavioral maladjustment ( = -.22 and -.48) at W2, controlling for cross-time stability of both constructs and covariates (child sex, parental education).
本研究考察了社会文化因素与自我调节(家长报告、教师报告、实验室任务)之间的关系,以及自我调节与行为调整(家长、教师、儿童报告)之间的前瞻性关系,研究对象为移民家庭中的社会经济多样化的美籍华裔儿童(N=258,第一波年龄=6-9 岁,第二波年龄=9-11 岁,男孩占 52%,低收入占 57%),采用纵向研究(2007-2011 年)在小学早期进行。家庭收入与自我调节的潜在因素呈独特相关(β=.22),父母与孩子的中文取向差距与父母报告的努力控制呈正相关(β=.40)。第一波的自我调节与第二波的父母和教师报告的行为失调呈负相关(β=-.22 和 -.48),控制了两个结构和协变量(儿童性别、父母教育)的跨时间稳定性。
