Abstract

Objectives: This study concerns Chinese mothers' color-conscious socialization and social dominance orientation and how these relate to children's racial attitudes.

Method: Data were collected from a sample of 155 Chinese children (71 girls) aged 7-11 years and their mothers, from urban regions across China (Shanghai, Jinan, and cities in Jiangsu Province), including observations of mothers' color-conscious practices, self-reported social dominance orientation, and children's attitudes toward light-skinned Chinese, tan-skinned Chinese, and White groups. All children were born in urban areas and from middle-income families.

Results: Variable- and person-centered analyses suggested three areas of color-conscious practices, racial appearance, cultural background, and grouping, and revealed heterogeneity in associations between color consciousness and social dominance orientation. Mothers' acknowledgment of shared culture was associated with children's positive attitudes toward their racial ingroup with darker skin tone.

中国母亲的肤色意识社会化和社会主导取向概况：与子女种族态度的关系。

研究目的本研究关注中国母亲的肤色意识社会化和社会主导取向，以及这些与儿童种族态度之间的关系：方法：从中国城市地区（上海、济南和江苏省城市）的 155 名 7-11 岁的中国儿童（71 名女孩）及其母亲那里收集数据，包括观察母亲的肤色意识做法、自我报告的社会主导取向，以及儿童对浅肤色中国人、棕褐色肤色中国人和白人群体的态度。所有儿童都出生在城市地区，来自中等收入家庭：结果：变量分析和以人为中心的分析表明，肤色意识实践包括三个方面，即种族外观、文化背景和分组，并揭示了肤色意识与社会主导取向之间的异质性关联。母亲对共同文化的认可与儿童对肤色较深的同族群体的积极态度有关：本研究强调了细致入微、因地制宜地理解肤色意识社会化的重要性。(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, 版权所有）。
