Maternal Psychological Functioning, Family Processes, and Child Adjustment in Rural, Single-Parent, African American Families.
Brody, Gene H.; Flor, Douglas L.
Developmental Psychology, v33 n6 p1000-11 Nov 1997
Tested a model linking family financial resources to adjustment among African American 6- to 9-year olds with single, rural, Southern mothers. Found that inadequate financial resources related to mothers' depression and low self-esteem. Self-esteem was linked with family routines and mother-child relationship quality. Child self-regulation mediated paths from mother-child relationship quality and family routines to child academic and psychosocial adjustment. (Author/KB)
