OBJECTIVES
Many religious and cultural settings embrace the principle to "honor your parents." However, how individuals understand and enact this mandate varies by cultural context and community. The different understanding of "honor your parents" draws attention to motivations for parental caregiving across cultural contexts. This study investigates how individuals in 3 different cultural settings conceptualize "honoring your parents" and how these conceptualizations affect their perceptions of obligations to care for an older parent.
METHODS
Semistructured interviews with 153 individuals in the United States, Ghana, and Nigeria explored the concept of "honor your parents," how it is understood, and its relationship to the perceived obligation to care for one's parents. A content analysis was applied to all transcripts and analyzed for discussion.
RESULTS
Among individuals in the United States, "honor your parents" is less likely to be conceived as providing material and instrumental care to a parent, and more in terms of emotional care. In contrast, individuals in Nigeria and Ghana closely associated "honor your parents" with providing material and instrumental care to a parent.
DISCUSSION
Understanding how different conceptions of "honor your parents" translate to expectations for and modes of parental caregiving can illuminate how caregiving needs can be met for the aging populations of the United States, Ghana, and Nigeria.
目的
许多宗教和文化背景都秉持着“尊敬父母”的原则。然而，个人对这一命令的理解和执行因文化背景和社区而异。对“尊敬父母”的不同理解引起了人们对跨文化背景下父母照顾动机的关注。本研究调查了 3 种不同文化背景下的个体如何理解“尊敬父母”，以及这些理解如何影响他们对照顾年长父母的义务的看法。
方法
对美国、加纳和尼日利亚的 153 名个体进行半结构化访谈，探讨了“尊敬父母”的概念、对其的理解，以及其与照顾父母的义务之间的关系。对所有转录本进行内容分析，并进行讨论分析。
结果
在美国，“尊敬父母”不太可能被理解为向父母提供物质和工具性照顾，而更多地是指情感上的照顾。相比之下，尼日利亚和加纳的个体则将“尊敬父母”与向父母提供物质和工具性照顾紧密联系在一起。
讨论
理解不同概念的“尊敬父母”如何转化为对父母照顾的期望和模式，可以阐明如何满足美国、加纳和尼日利亚老龄化人口的照顾需求。
