| dc.description.abstract | The purpose of this study was to examine how cultural and contextual factors influence parenting practice during adolescence by comparing parenting practice of Korean mothers in Korea and immigrant mothers in the United States with three dimensions of independence, control, and involvement. The sample consisted of 100 Korean and 84 Korean immigrant mothers who had an adolescent between the ages of 11 and 17 who completed self-administered questionnaires. This study found that the Korean culture in raising children strongly influenced the Korean immigrant mothers' parenting practice even though they were more likely to adjust to American culture. This research suggests that English learning or parenting education programs will be needed for the Korean mothers and Korean immigrant mothers. | en_US |
