Factor related to parental childrearing behaviors of preschool children in Bangkok
Abstract:
This descriptive correlation research was designed to examine: 1) parental
expectations on physical, emotional, educational, social and moral characteristic of
their children; 2.) the relationships between parental expectations, parental age,
education level, family income, and parental childrearing behaviors for preschool
children in Bangkok Metropolitan. The sample consisted of 233 parents whose 3-6
years old children were attending kindergarten schools in Bangkok Metropolitan. The
instruments included three questionnaires on general characteristics of the parents and
family, the parental expectation of childrearing questionnaire and the parental
childrearing behaviors questionnaire.
The studys results showed that parental age, education level, family
income and parental expectation were not related to parental childrearing behaviors
(p>.05).
When the Pearsons correlation analysis was used to examine each
category of parental expectation, it was found that only parental expectation on
education was positively related to the parental childrearing educational
behaviors(r=.154, p<.05).
