This study investigates the impact of mindful parenting on child behaviour problems and examines the chain mediating role of parental and child communicating performance in this relationship.
A 10-month follow-up survey was conducted, utilizing the Interpersonal Mindfulness in Parenting Scale (IM-P), the Parent-Child Communication Inventory, and the abbreviated version of the Child Behaviour Checklist (CBCL).
At baseline (T1), higher levels of mindful parenting in parents were significantly and positively associated with both T1 parental communicating performance and child communicating performance. After 10 months, all three variables showed significant negative associations with child behaviour problems. T1 parental communication performance positively correlated with T1 child communication performance. After controlling for T1 child behaviour problems, children's gender and age, and parents' gender, the indirect association between T1 parents' levels of mindful parenting and T2 child behaviour problems was significant, mediated by T1 parental communicating performance and T1 child communicating performance.
Mindful parenting enhances parental communication behaviour, leading to improved child communication behaviour and reduced child behaviour problems.
本研究旨在探讨正念养育对儿童行为问题的影响,并检验父母与子女沟通表现在此关系中的链式中介作用。
采用 10 个月的随访调查,使用亲子人际正念量表(IM-P)、父母-子女沟通量表和儿童行为检查表(CBCL)的缩写版。
在基线(T1)时,父母的正念养育水平越高,与 T1 时父母的沟通表现和孩子的沟通表现均呈显著正相关。10 个月后,所有三个变量与儿童行为问题均呈显著负相关。T1 时父母的沟通表现与 T1 时孩子的沟通表现呈正相关。在控制了 T1 儿童行为问题、儿童的性别和年龄以及父母的性别后,T1 时父母的正念养育水平与 T2 儿童行为问题之间的间接关联通过 T1 时父母的沟通表现和 T1 时孩子的沟通表现而显著,即正念养育水平越高,父母的沟通表现越好,孩子的沟通表现也越好,儿童行为问题越少。
正念养育能增强父母的沟通行为,进而改善儿童的沟通行为,减少儿童的行为问题。
