Chad 195 Cultural Interview

Order Description
There is controversy in contemporary research regarding whether or not parenting styles (i.e., the set of practices parents employ to socialize their children) vary as a function of culture. That is, are there different types of parenting practices, dimensions, and styles/patterns in different cultures? A second controversial question involves whether the same practice (e.g., physical punishment) or parenting style (e.g., authoritarian) employed in different cultures is related to the same developmental outcomes (e.g., does physical punishment reduce or increase misbehavior in different cultures; is authoritarian parenting related to academic achievement or failure in different cultures). The answers to these questions have significant implications for parent education efforts as well as the practice of health professionals, teachers, and service professionals who work with children and families. This assignment provides you the opportunity to explore the scientific theory and research on cultural variations in parenting and developmental outcomes and to interview a peer who has lived his or her childhood and adolescence in a different culture. One goal of this assignment is for you to take into account, not just the purported differences between cultures in the “prevalence” of certain parenting practices and styles (e.g., authoritarian parenting said to be prevalent in Eastern cultures and authoritative parenting in Western cultures), but also the often overlooked but important variability that exists in parenting practices and styles within cultures. The other goal of this assignment is for you to take into account the similarities that exist between cultures in the developmental outcomes that are associated with different types of parenting practices and styles.

Your job is to find someone who remembers their experiences during the ages 13-18. Please use these questions below for interviewing that person you’ve chosen. *Make sure the responses are detailed.
