“…Specifically, European American mothers made more mental‐state comments than immigrant Chinese mothers in the United States in a storytelling task (Doan & Wang, 2010), and made more autonomy‐related (including mental‐state) comments than mainland Chinese mothers in mother–infant interactions (Keller et al., 2007). Also, as discussed above, Western parents showed more mind‐mindedness towards their children than Chinese parents in both mother–child interactions (Dai et al., 2019) and parents’ speech samples about their children (Hughes et al., 2018). These contrasts seem to resonate with general findings of cultural differences in observational studies of mother–child reminiscing: European American mothers are more elaborative and child‐centred, facilitating children's participation, while Japanese, Chinese, and Korean mothers are less elaborative but more didactic and mother‐centred (Minami & McCabe, 1995; Mullen & Yi, 1995; Wang, 2001, 2007; Wang, Leichtman, & Davies, 2000; Wang & Fivush, 2005; see Wang, 2011 for a summary).…”
