Sixteen mothers, fathers, and their 4- to 7-year-old children were observed interacting in their homes during three family groupings: (a) mother and child, (b) father and child, and (c) mother, father, and child. Half the children had Down syndrome and half were nonhandicapped. Parents of children with Down syndrome structured their interactions with their offspring by assuming manager and teacher roles more often than did parents of nonhandicapped children. Children with Down syndrome were less contingently responsive to both parents than were nonhandicapped children. Mothers of Down syndrome children assumed the teacher role more often than fathers did. Fathers of both groups of children interacted less with their offspring in the triadic family grouping, whereas mothers were more consistent, assuming a parenting role across family contexts.
16对父母及其4至7岁的孩子参与了研究，观察他们在三种家庭组合情境下于家中的互动情况：（a）母亲与孩子，（b）父亲与孩子，以及（c）母亲、父亲与孩子。其中一半孩子患有唐氏综合征，另一半为非残疾儿童。与非残疾儿童的父母相比，唐氏综合征患儿的父母更常通过扮演管理者和教师的角色来构建与子女的互动。唐氏综合征患儿对父母双方的反应相较于非残疾儿童更少具有偶然性。唐氏综合征患儿的母亲比父亲更常扮演教师角色。两类孩子的父亲在三元家庭组合情境下与子女互动较少，而母亲则更为一致地在不同家庭情境中都承担养育角色。
