2-069 - Ethnic-Racial Processes in the Family: Implications for Parenting and Parent-Child Interactions
Fri, March 20, 9:55 to 11:25am, Penn CC, Floor: 200 Level, Room 204ASession Type: Paper Session
Integrative Statement
Family processes—particularly parent-child interactions—tied to aspects of race and ethnicity are explored in this symposium. In Paper 1, the authors discuss college students’ reports of interracial dating and conflict with parents due to outgroup dating. In Paper 2, authors test a mediational model in which mothers’ experiences of ethnic discrimination lead to maternal depression, with adverse implications for quality of parenting. In Paper 3, parent ethnic-racial socialization predicted youths’ ethnic-racial identity only for families with high communication. This paper also examined ways that communication in the family was related to other aspects of racial identity (e.g., public regard) and youths’ academic attitudes. Parenting in biracial families the focus of Paper 4, which showed that Black-White biracial children who received more socialization from parents that focused on their cultural heritage showed higher interpersonal skills and less externalizing in kindergarten than biracial children who received less socialization regarding their racial heritage.
