Abstract | Studies of child-rearing practices among Thai, Indonesian, and Indian families are reported in two abstracts and one full paper. The Indonesian study (by Siti Rahayu Haditono) explored achievement motivation, parents' educational level, and child-rearing practices among members of four Javanese occupational groups: farmers, traders, civil servants, and armed forces personnel. Aspects of child-rearing that were investigated included stimulation, social contacts, achievement pressure, non-authoritarian attitude, and non-fatalistic view. It was hypothesized that positive correlations exist between parents' child-rearing practices and (1) their child's achievement motivation and (2) parents' educational level. It was further hypothesized that occupational groups differ in their members' (3) educational level, (4) child-rearing practices, and (5) children's achievement motivation. Findings imply support for the first hypothesis, confirm the second hypothesis for four of the five child-rearing practices, confirm the third and fourth hypotheses, and do not confirm the fifth hypothesis. The Thai and Indian abstracts briefly report the following: (1) findings of a study of child-rearing practices, physical development, and school readiness in preschool children; and (2) a study of n-Ach, or the achievement motive, in relation to child-rearing practices and prolonged deprivation. Findings of the former suggest that parents of low SES should be informed of the importance of the father's role in child development. Findings of the latter suggest that two aspects of child-rearing practice, demand and restriction, are important factors in determining the strength of n-Ach. The Thai study was written by Wanpen Phisalaphong; the Indian study was written by Tiwari Ashta Nand and Tripathi Ramesh Mani. Copies of the papers represented by these abstracts may be obtained from the editors of the conference. (RH) |
