“…When asked at the end of the day about that day (vs. about in general), parents may be more capable of remembering children's performance and their affect toward children (for a similar point, see Pomerantz & Kempner, ; Pomerantz, Wang, & Ng, ). In making daily reports, parents may also be less prone to social desirability biases because each day is just one of many on which they are reporting (Pomerantz & Monti, ).…”

This research examined whether American and Chinese mothers' tendencies to base their worth on children's performance contributes to their affective responses to children's performance. Study 1 used daily interviews to assess mothers' warmth (vs. hostility) and children's school performance (N = 197; M = 12.81 years). In Study 2, such affect was observed in the laboratory following children's manipulated performance on cognitive problems (N = 128; M = 10.21 years). The more mothers based their worth on children's performance, the more their warmth (vs. hostility) decreased when children failed in Study 1. This pattern was evident only among Chinese mothers in Study 2. In both studies, child-based worth did not contribute to mothers' affective responses to children's success.

“…Another limitation was that the current data were vulnerable to parent self-report bias. Although parents are seen as credible sources of information on their own experience (Jahoda, 1990), there is also a tendency for parents to inflate reports because such acts are desirable (Pomerantz & Monti, 2015; Wong & Hughes, 2006). Future research could include teachers’ reports of children’s peer interactions, direct assessment, and observation to develop broader understandings of parents’ child rearing ideologies, actual parenting practices, and children’s behaviors in context to add credibility to these findings.…”

Currently, despite the rapid growth of the population of Chinese immigrant families and children in the United States, preschool-aged Chinese-heritage children are an underrepresented group in research. The overarching purpose of this project was to provide a deeper understanding of Head Start Chinese immigrant parents’ beliefs about children’s social-emotional development, the value of play during the preschool period, and the potential role of cultural orientation. The study followed the steps of a mixed methods explanatory sequential design. First, using quantitative data collected from 213 primary caregivers, the study employed a person-centered lens to explore profiles of parents’ cultural orientations and beliefs about play and academics in preschool to better understand the association of these profiles to children’s social competencies. Next, 34 primary caregivers from the quantitative study participated in in-depth, focus group discussions to further explore parents’ perceptions of children’s social behaviors, cultural adjustment experiences, and their perceptions about U.S. preschools. Four reliable profiles were resolved quantitatively and showed within-group variations in patterns of Chinese immigrant parents’ beliefs and cultural orientations that related differentially to children’s social-emotional competencies as evidenced within peer play at home. Qualitative findings corroborated and elaborated the quantitative findings. These results underscored the importance of engaging with Chinese immigrant parents to inform research and program practices.

“…To draw attention to concerns related to assessing parental engagement in children's education. Researchers review the major assessment approaches used to date, highlighting both the strengths and weaknesses of each approach (Pomerantz & Monti, 2015). This is accompanied by recommendations for improving the assessment of parental engagement in three primary areas.…”
