Intergenerational Transmission of Filial Piety in Two- and Three-Generation Families and the Role of Parental Involvement

Abstract

Abstract: To investigate the influence of father’s and mother’s filial piety on child’s filial piety, as well as the potential mediating roles of parental involvement in the intergenerational transmission of filial piety in both two- and three-generation families, a total of 572 sixth grade students and their parents completed the questionnaire survey. The results showed that: 1) In the two-generation families, mothers’ reciprocal filial piety positively predicted children’s reciprocal filial piety, while mothers’ authoritarian filial piety negatively predicted children’s reciprocal filial piety. In the three-generation families, mothers’ reciprocal filial piety positively predicted children’s reciprocal filial piety, while mother’s authoritarian filial piety negatively predicted children’s reciprocal filial piety. Moreover, fathers’ authoritarian filial piety positively predicted children’s reciprocal and authoritarian filial piety. 2) In the two-generation families, maternal involvement not only mediated the relationships between mothers’ reciprocal filial piety and children’s reciprocal filial piety, but also mediated the relationships between mothers’ authoritarian filial piety and children’s reciprocal filial piety. In the three-generation families, maternal involvement mediated the relationships between mothers’ reciprocal filial piety and children’s reciprocal filial piety. These results suggest that parents play an important role in shaping their children’s filial piety in both two- and three-generation families.

摘要： 对572名小学六年级学生及其父母进行问卷调查，分别在核心与三代家庭中，考察父母与小学生的孝道信念的关系，以及父母教育卷入在孝道信念代际传递中的中介作用。结果表明：（1）核心家庭中，母亲相互性孝道显著正向预测小学生相互性孝道，母亲权威性孝道显著负向预测小学生相互性孝道；三代家庭中，母亲相互性孝道显著正向预测小学生相互性孝道，母亲权威性孝道显著负向预测小学生相互性孝道，父亲权威性孝道显著正向预测小学生相互性孝道和权威性孝道。（2）核心家庭中，母亲教育卷入在母亲相互性孝道、母亲权威性孝道与小学生相互性孝道关系间的中介作用显著；三代家庭中，母亲教育卷入在母亲相互性孝道与小学生相互性孝道关系间的中介作用显著。以上结果对塑造小学生的孝道信念有重要启示意义。
