A Cross-National Study of Self-Evaluations and Attributions in Parenting: Argentina, Belgium, France, Israel, Italy, Japan, and the United States.
Bornstein, Marc H.; And Others
Developmental Psychology, v34 n4 p662-76 Jul 1998
Argentine, Belgian, French, Israeli, Italian, Japanese, and U.S. mothers of 20-month-olds evaluated their competence, satisfaction, investment, and role balance in parenting; they also rated attributions of successes and failures in parenting tasks to their ability, effort, or mood; difficulty of task; or child behavior. Few cross-cultural similarities emerged; rather, systematic culture effects for both self-evaluations and attributions were common. (EV)
