以往的研究以独立自我和互联自我为理论构架,比较了中国父母的教养方式和西方父母的教养方式。这些研究普遍认为中国父母不重视子女的独立发展。但是,一小部分相反的证据以及中国城市快速的现代化进程使得这一结论的准确性受到质疑。为了解决这一争论,本研究以“独立多面性思想为指导,从文化的角度区分了两种重要的独立功能自立(即个人能力、努力和责任)和个性(即自信敢言和独特性)。本研究由一个焦点小组研究(研究一)和相关研究(研究二)组成。前者初步收集自立和个性的区别,后者在城市和农村青少年中调查父母提升自立和父母提升个性的结构性和功能性差异。 / 研究一调查了23个中国大学生,结果指示中国人倾向于认为自立是自己处理自己的事情的能力,而个性是独立思考而不人与亦云的能力。研究二调查了314名城市初中生和536名农村初中生。在初中生的报告中,父母提升自立和父母提升个性是两个相关但不相同的概念。比起提升个性,中国城市和农村的青少年报告父母更多地提升(子女的)自立。但城市青少年比农村青少年报告父母更多提升自立和个性。青少年报告的父母提升自立比提升个性更能预测他们的学业功能和互惠孝顺观念(即基于感激和回报而关心支持父母的观念)。青少年报告的父母提升个性能预测他们的情绪功能,但这个作用更常见于城市而非农村。 / 本研究的结果填补了父母对青少年初期的子女多种独立功能社会化的研究空白,阐明了青少年发展中独立功能具有多面性的本质。而且这些结果再次证明了社会文化变迁对父母社会化影响,反映了中国父母教养方式的动态性和复杂性。同时也为今后多文化的研究提供启示。 / Prior research contrasting Chinese parenting with Western parenting within the framework of independence vs. interdependence often portrayed Chinese parents as deemphasizing offspring’s independent development. However, a small body of evidence contradictory to this stereotypical picture and modernization occurring dramatically in urban China cast doubt on this conclusion. In order to enlighten the debate on Chinese parental socialization of independence, the current research, guided by the notion of multifaceted independence, attempted to differentiate two essential forms of independence self-reliance (i.e., individual effort, ability and responsibility) and individuality (i.e., assertiveness and distinctiveness). It included a focus group study as a preliminary step to accumulate evidence of distinction of self-reliance and individuality and a correlational study as a primary step to examine the conceptual and functional distinction between parental promotion of self-reliance and promotion of individuality in the perception of urban and rural Chinese early adolescents. / In the study 1, a focus group study on a sample of 23 Chinese university students showed that Chinese people tended to interpret self-reliance as an ability to handle personal affairs on one’s own and individuality as a capacity to have independent thinking rather than following the crowd. Study 2 was based on the reports of 314 urban and 536 rural early adolescents. Overall, the findings suggest that adolescents’ perceived parental promotion of self-reliance and promotion of individuality were two overlapping yet distinct constructs. The former was reported to a higher degree than the latter cross the urban vs. rural group, but both were reported higher in the urban than in the rural group. Perceived parental promotion of self-reliance (vs. promotion of individuality) was more likely to predict adolescents’ enhanced academic adjustment and reciprocal filial piety attitudes (i.e., attitudes toward caring and supporting parents out of appreciation and reward) reported concurrently cross the urban vs. rural group. Perceived parental promotion of individuality, however, was effective to predict adolescents’ heightened emotional adjustment reported concurrently, but more likely to work in the urban vs. rural context. / The findings fill in the omission of parental socialization of multiple forms of independence when offspring enter into adolescence, and shed light on the multifaceted nature of independence in adolescent development. They also add to extant evidence documenting the effects of sociocultural changes on parental socialization, which reflects the dynamics and complexity of contemporary Chinese parenting and provides implications for future studies with multiple cultural groups. / Detailed summary in vernacular field only. / Detailed summary in vernacular field only. / Detailed summary in vernacular field only. / Lin, Li. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--Chinese University of Hong Kong, 2012. / Includes bibliographical references (leaves 154-180). / Electronic reproduction.
