Özet:
The way mothers respond to their young children's negative emotions has been shown to be important for children's socioemotional development (Eisenberg, Cumberland, & Spinrad, 1998), but research on this facet of emotion socialization and the way it relates to child outcomes has been mainly limited to middle class, European American families (Friedlmeier, Corapci, & Cole, 2011). Measurement and model equivalence of the "Coping with Children's Negative Emotions Scale" (CCNES) across three groups of predominantly low-income mothers from non-urban areas differing on race and/or state residence (e.g. African American North Carolina, ANC; European American North Carolina, ENC; and European American Pennsylvania, EPA) were tested across two studies. In the first study, partial scalar variance of the two-factor model (e.g. nonsupportive vs. supportive responses) was achieved through model tailoring through modification indices and exploratory methods, whereas the four-factor model (e.g. problem-focused, emotion-focused, minimizing, and punitive responses) was not tenable. Additionally, ANC mothers displayed higher nonsupportive and lower supportive responses as compared to both ENC and EPA groups, but these differences were completely eradicated when a series of four poverty-related risks (i.e. household disorganization, household instability, maternal depression, cumulative risk) were controlled. The second study confirmed model equivalence of nonsupportive responses predicting higher child conduct problems across race-state groups, boys and girls, and the interaction of child sex and race-state groups, even when controlling for a robust set of alternative explanatory variables (i.e. previous levels of behavioral problems, child temperament, general positive parenting). However, within ANC families, a trend towards model inequivalence was observed across high and low levels of race socialization, where children whose mothers were communicating above average levels of messages about what it means to be African American were protected from the negative effects of nonsupportive responses on conduct problems, whereas children experiencing below average levels of these messages displayed a positive association between conduct problems and nonsupportive responses. Additionally, post-hoc analyses for the first paper showed that conclusions about main research questions would be different if the CCNES were used prior to establishing measurement equivalence, thus supporting the importance of conducting measurement equivalence analyses within cross-cultural parenting studies.
