Linking Maternal Efficacy Beliefs, Developmental Goals, Parenting Practices, and Child Competence in Rural Single-Parent African American Families.
Brody, Gene H.; Flor, Douglas L.; Gibson, Nicole Morgan
Child Development, v70 n5 p1197-1208 Sep-Oct 1999
Traced links among family financial resource adequacy, maternal beliefs and behavior, developmental goals, and child outcomes in rural, single-parent African American families of 6- to 9-year-olds. Found that financial adequacy was linked with childrearing efficacy. Efficacy beliefs were linked with parenting practices indirectly through developmental goals. Parenting practices were indirectly linked with children's competence through association with children's self-regulation. (Author/KB)
