Despite the centrality of mothers in their children’s education, mothers have, until relatively recently, been largely invisible in the research on family and intergenerational literacy. This paper develops a feminist analysis of family literacy programs and outlines a pedagogical framework for family literacy, that repositions mothers as researchers of literacy practices within their families. Data from a case study of an intergenerational literacy program are analysed to make visible the complexity of the mothers’ intergenerational literacy practices and to demonstrate the value of critical literacy as a pedagogical approach that acknowledges the gendered subjectivities of women in family literacy programs as mothers, learners and teachers of their children. 相似文献

This study focuses on mothers’ and young children’s everyday social experience by analyzing their social relationships, social
support in child care, mother-child interaction, and mothers’ evaluations of all these aspects. Three hundred and eighty-four
mothers with a child aged between I and 3 years, living in a city in Central Italy, were interviewed. A Principal Components
Analysis was performed on items concerning mothers’ and children’s social experience and mothers’ evaluations. Four PCA generated
factors were regressed on the mother’s and Four PCA generated factors were regressed on the mother’s and child’s characteristics.
Results show that, even in a context characterized by social conditions supportive to mothering, there is a comparatively
widespread desire for social interaction with other mothers and children. A stress related to intensive mothering was found
in a minority of the mothers and was predicted by the mothers’ continuous commitment in child care during the whole day. Results
are discussed in relation to the hypothesis that social contacts with other mothers may have a mitigating effect on mothers’
stress. One implication is that early educational services that provide the opportunity for social intercourse among parents
can be an important resource for them. 相似文献

The aim of this study is to assess the factors that are related to preschool children and their mothers on children’s’ intuitional
mathematics abilities. Results of the study showed that there were significant differences in children’s intuitional mathematics
abilities when children are given the opportunity to think intuitionally and to make estimations, and when their mothers believe
in the importance of providing such opportunities in the home setting. Children who tended to think fast and to examine details
of objects had significantly higher scores. Also, the working mothers aimed to give opportunities to their children more often
than non-working mothers. The mothers whose children received preschool education tended to give more opportunities to their
children to think intuitionally and to make estimations. When incorrect intuitional answers or estimations were made by children,
lower-educated mothers tended to scold their children much more than higher educated mothers. Mothers having at least a university
degree explained more often to the children why they were in error than did the less-educated mothers. 相似文献

The purpose of this paper focuses on mothers’ beliefs about their child’s personality and development (stability or change and causal attributions) and how these beliefs can be affected by mothers’ experience (being a mother of a six or of a twelve-year-old child and being a mother of a normally-developing or of a mentally disabled child). The scales were completed by several samples of mothers. The effect of the temporal orientation (retrospective or perspective) was also considered. The results show that the mothers rate their child with an optimistic bias while the mothers of disabled children are less positive than those of the broad-ranging sample. The results are also in accordance with the decrease of positiveness as the child grows. Finally, the optimistic bias differs in function of the temporal orientation for the mothers of normally-developing children and for the mothers of mentally disabled children. The retrospective change is also overestimated with regard to the prospective one in the broad-ranging sample. 相似文献

The current study describes the storybook reading behaviors of 45 preschoolers [30 with language impairment (LI) and 15 with
typical language (TL)] and their mothers. Each dyad was observed reading a storybook within their homes, and sessions were
subsequently coded for indicators of emotional and instructional quality as well as for child participation. Mothers of children
with LI showed lower levels of emotional support than mothers of children with TL, although all mothers exhibited similar
quality of instruction. The two groups of children were equally enthusiastic about the book; however, children with LI were
observed to be less compliant than children with TL and showed a trend to be less persistent. For the children with LI, participation
in the book reading task was found to be high only when mothers’ behaviors were observed to be highly sensitive in nature,
demonstrating the importance of exposing children to maternal behaviors that are responsive to their unique abilities and
needs. 相似文献

For migrant groups moving from one place to another usually means dealing with contradictions between home and host countries and with different cultural norms. Taking into consideration migrant women's previous status in the village and their new one in the host country, it can be said that migration is a turning point in women's lives. Research findings show that increased employability of women in the host country increases their independence and leads to sex role changes and changes within the family.Return migration is the last stage in the migration cycle and it is a rather neglected and little researched topic as yet. The purpose of this paper is to report on research on role changes within the family.Three groups of migrant mothers (two groups living in West Germany and one group repatriated) were compared with a control group in the District of Drama, Macedonia, on work employment and types of responsibilities concerning their children's upbringing.Results showed that mothers who live in West Germany are equally responsible with fathers for the child's social behavior, school performance and expenses and were significantly different from the control group. Return mothers were as much as fathers responsible for the child's school performance in contrast to the control group. More mothers than fathers, however, were responsible for the child's relationships and fewer mothers than fathers were responsible for the child's expenses; in this respect both parents resembled those of the control group. It seems therefore, that migrant mothers take over different roles in the host country than those of the controls, whereas return mothers adopt to a large extent the stereotyped role of control mothers. 相似文献

This follow-up study set out to examine whether parents’ recollections of their own school would predict their degree of satisfaction
with the functioning of their child’s school. A group of academically educated and vocationally educated parents with a child
in preschool (N=391) were asked to think back to their primary school days and evaluate their school; these parents were then
asked to indicate their satisfaction with the functioning of their child’s school once the child had reached the first, the
third and the fifth grade. The parents’ recollections were found to influence their degree of satisfaction: among the academically
educated respondents, the parents with relatively positive recollections showed higher levels of satisfaction than the parents
with relatively negative recollections did; and among the vocationally educated respondents, the mothers with relatively positive
recollections indicated higher levels of satisfaction than the mothers with relatively negative recollections did. It was
suggested that parents’ recollections may be seen as an experience-based component of their general attitude towards education. 相似文献

This study examines what a Korean heritage language school means to Korean immigrant families and their children, considering
Korean immigrant mothers’ perspectives on American early schooling. As part of an ethnographic research project on Korean-American
children’s peer culture in a heritage school, seven mothers, two guardians (grandmothers), and their young children were observed
and interviewed during one academic year. The analysis showed that the heritage language school functions as a social and
emotional support system, a buffer for reducing the detachment from parents, and a safety net for the Korean-American children’s
challenging lives. The Korean immigrant mothers also showed that they felt burdened by different cultural views of their children’s
behaviors, and described how their children were often considered problematic. The social and culture barriers caused by their
immigrant status profoundly influenced their reasons for sending their children to a Korean heritage language school. This
study suggests that teachers’ deep understanding of culturally different perspectives on children’s behaviors, along with
systematic social and emotional support, can help these children attain psychological well-being. 相似文献

The article presents the results of a data analysis intended to examine the relationship between children’s personality, maternal
beliefs and childrearing behaviour and various disabilities on the one hand (mildly, moderate or severe mental handicap, sensorial
handicap, developmental disabilities) and mothers’ educational level on the other.
Data were taken from 102 mothers of disabled children between the ages of three and six. The children came from the Walloon
Region of Belgium and were regularly counselled by an early intervention team (Services d’Aide Précoce — SAP). Variance analyses
were performed on questionnaire data from the total sample (n=102). The questionnaires were based on the Five Factor Model
of personality rating (Roskam, de Maere-Gaudissart, & Vandenplas-Holper, 2000), and on Sameroff’s levels of parental development
for the rating of maternal beliefs. Factorial correspondence analyses were also performed on maternal self-reported childrearing
behaviour as described in 50 interviews with mothers, analysed with a coding gird. 相似文献

The aim of this article is to outline and assess an educational intervention programme targeted at improving the skills of
families and the personal and social development of children living in situations of grave social vulnerability. The sample
comprised 10 families during the first phase of the intervention and six during the second. The design, intervention and assessment
process of this study was carried out in two phases over a period of a year and a half. For both phases, three different groups—of
men/fathers, women/mothers and children—were established. Study variables (parenting skills and children’s personal and social
development) were evaluated before and after the intervention in every group, as well as during the entire process. The results,
taking into account the improvements reported by all the participants (social workers, group monitors, fathers, mothers, children)
show that inter-professional involvement and coordination at all phases of the intervention is vital in order to achieve small
but significant improvements. 相似文献

This longitudinal study set out to examine the changes that took place in parents’ evaluations of their child’s school in
the course of the child’s complete 9-year-long compulsory education. Over the follow-up period, academically educated and
vocationally educated mothers and fathers (N = 326) were asked to indicate their degree of satisfaction with aspects of their child’s school every 2 years. It was found
that the level of parental satisfaction was fairly high at the start, that the general decreasing trend was gradual rather
than abrupt, and that the proportion of dissatisfied parents remained low and stable. A pattern of differences emerged to
suggest that the parents’ perceptions were structured by their social-psychological distance from the school as measured by
their social positions; for instance, the vocationally educated parents, fathers in particular, displayed less satisfaction
than the academically educated ones. 相似文献

A latent variable structural model was constructed to test the relations among mothers’ and fathers’ parenting self-efficacy
(PSE), their loneliness, and their child’s peer-evaluated social competence, self-evaluated loneliness, teacher-evaluated
motivational orientation, and academic skills. In order to do this, first the Self-Efficacy for Parenting Tasks Index (Coleman
& Karraker, 2000) was applied to a sample of mothers (n=876) and fathers (n=696) to test the relevance of these parenting
task categories to Finnish mothers and fathers. The results of the latent variable structural model indicated a strong relationship
between both mothers’ and fathers’ loneliness and their PSE, consisting of Nurturance, Discipline, Recreation, and Participation
factors. Moreover, there was a modest relationship between parents’ PSE and their child’s social competence and consequently
between social competence and child’s loneliness. The relationship between PSE and child’s academic achievement were mediated
via child’s social competence. 相似文献

The purpose of this study is to consider how mothers of kindergartners navigate their families’ experiences within a community
and how their children’s school experiences affect their interactions and investment in a place. The questions this research
asks is: How do mothers define and describe their neighborhood? What role does the school play as mothers navigate their children’s
experiences in the community? Findings indicate that the way that families conceptualize and manage their context indicates
that their values, needs, and life aspirations, which are clearly connected to their experiences and perceptions of the school. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: This study reported the outcome evaluation of the "Apoyo Personal y Familiar" (APF) program for poorly-educated mothers from multi-problem families, showing inadequate behavior with their children. APF is a community-based multi-site program delivered through weekly group meetings in municipal resource centers. METHOD: A total of 340 mothers referred by the municipal social services of Tenerife, Spain were assessed; 185 mothers participated in the APF program that lasted 8 months, and 155 mothers were in the control group. Pre-post test comparisons for the intervention group and post-test comparisons with the control group on self-rating measures of maternal beliefs, personal agency and child-rearing practices were performed. Multivariate tests, t tests and effect sizes (ES) were calculated to determine the program effectiveness on the outcome measures. RESULTS: Mothers' support of nurturist and nativist beliefs and the reported use of Neglect-permissive and Coercive practices significantly decreased after program completion whereas the reported use of Inductive practices significantly increased. Increases in self-efficacy, internal control and role difficulty were also significant in relation to those of the control group. The program was especially effective for older mothers, with fewer children, living in a two-parent family, in urban areas and with either low or medium educational levels. CONCLUSION: The program was very effective in changing the mothers' perceived competences and modestly effective in changing their beliefs about child development and education and reported child-rearing practices. Changes in personal agency are very important for at-risk parents who feel helpless and with no control over their lives. 相似文献

The researchers addressed two questions: (1) Does maternal reading mediation and family home literacy environment (HLE) relate
to children’s emergent literacy (EL) level? and (2) Do the relationships among these variables differ as a function of socioeconomic
strata (SES) level. A total of 94 5–6-year-old children, 47 from low SES (LSES) and 47 from high (HSES) families, and their
mothers participated. Mother–child interactions while reading an unfamiliar book were videotaped and their verbal expressions
were coded for extracting maternal mediation level. Children’s independent EL level was assessed prior to the interaction.
Compared with the LSES group, HSES children showed higher EL levels and their homes had a richer literacy environment. Maternal
mediation level differed by SES: LSES mothers paraphrased text more often; HSES mothers’ higher mediation level included a
discussion of the written system and making connections beyond the text. In the HSES group, maternal mediation level and HLE
related to children’s EL; no such relationships appeared in the LSES group. Results are discussed in terms of children’s socio-economic
background and their reading experiences. Implications for researchers and educational practices about the relationships between
children’s literacy development, SES, HLE, and parental mediation are discussed. 相似文献

Objective: The aim of the present study was to determine the extent to which mother-child interactional patterns in high-and low-risk (for child physical abuse) mothers were similar to patterns observed in physically abusive parents.Method: Ten high-risk and 10 demographically similar low-risk mother-child dyads were studied. Trained observers coded maternal-child interaction patterns in the home during five 1-hour periods using the Standardized Observation Codes system.Results: As expected, high-risk mothers made fewer neutral approaches to their children, displayed more negative behaviors toward their children, and made more indiscriminant responses to their children's prosocial behavior. Expected risk group differences were not found in the number of neutral instructions or positive responses, albeit the proportion of positive responses out of the total number of positive and negative responses was higher for low-risk mothers. After control for educational differences, risk group differences remained in the rates of neutral approaches and the number of indiscriminant behaviors made in response to children's prosocial behaviors.Conclusions: The observational data indicated that high-risk mothers display some behaviors similar to those observed in physically abusive mothers. The finding that high-risk mothers made more indiscriminate or noncontingent responses when reacting to their children's prosocial behavior is consistent with a coercive model of child physical abuse. 相似文献

This article explores how some children in Denmark, Estonia, Germany and Sweden describe their perspective on learning. The aim of the international study is to gain knowledge of how preschool children in Sweden, Denmark, Estonia and Germany reflect and perceive their learning in preschool and other surrounding social contexts. The results are based on 51 focus group interviews from 181 children. The results indicate that, in general, children from all four countries seem to be aware of their own learning. One can conclude that encouraging children to think about what they are doing and why they are doing it makes the activities more goal-oriented from the children’s perspective and thus more conscious. Children are able to describe their own perspectives on learning. 相似文献

For interactants to build a relationship over the course of several encounters they must be able to remember at least some of what transpired in earlier interactions. This study investigated two questions: do expectations about future interactions influence conversational memory, and do conversational participants remember more than observers? Subjects with a choice about whether to interact with their partner again (or about whether to interact with one of the persons they observed) remembered less in general than those expecting to interact with the same person or expecting to interact with a different person. This may be because interactants with a choice focused on securing non‐discursive information in order to reduce uncertainty, rather than on remembering details of what was said in the conversation. Participants remembered significantly more conversational information using cued recall than observers. They also remembered more than observers using recognition items for actual communication behavior. Participants are likely to have stronger memory traces than observers, which explains generally superior memory performance. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: The aim was to construct and test the reliability (utility, internal consistency, interrater agreement) and the validity (internal validity, concurrent validity) of a scale for home visiting social nurses to identify risks of physical abuse and neglect in mothers with a newborn child. METHOD: A 71-item scale was constructed based on a literature review and focus group sessions with social nurses and paraprofessionals who had experience with underprivileged families. This scale was applied in a random sample of 40 home visiting social nurses, who collected data in a sample of 373 nonabusive and 18 abusive/neglectful mothers with a newborn child. RESULTS: Items with prevalence rates below 5% and items making no significant difference between maltreating and non-maltreating mothers were omitted. The final version contained 20 items. This scale showed high internal consistency (alpha = .92) and high interrater reliability (r = .97). Exploratory factor analysis yielded a three-factor solution: Isolation (8 items, explaining 62.17% of the common variance), Psychological complexity (6 items, 18.86%), and Communication problems (6 items, 8.41%). Scores on Communication problems and Isolation significantly predicted scores on a social deprivation scale, which significantly distinguished maltreating from non-maltreating mothers. Mothers scoring high on Communication problems or Isolation obtained higher scores for social deprivation than low-scoring mothers. CONCLUSIONS: Home visiting nurses can identify risks for physical abuse and neglect among mothers with a newborn infant by focusing on signs of social isolation, distorted communication and psychological problems. 相似文献
