Abstract

Parents' responses to youth positive affect (PA) have been dichotomized as enhancing and dampening. This dichotomy may not fit with cultural scripts about emotion in communities where a balance between positive and negative emotions is preferred. To assess parents' PA socialization in a culturally relevant manner for urban, middle-class families in India, we developed a new measure of parental goals about happiness and adapted the Responses to Adolescent Happy Affect Scale (RAHAS). We tested the psychometric properties of these measures and assessed relations among parental socialization goals and behaviors across 5 months. Our sample included 377 adolescent (84.4% girls; Mage = 14.47) and parent (63.9% mothers) dyads, primarily Hindu, in Bengaluru, India. Two parental goals factors emerged: "Balancing and Controlling" and "Maximizing and Sharing" happiness. Three factors emerged for the adapted RAHAS. Two factors were the same as the original RAHAS: (a) "Enhancing" strategies to upregulate PA and (b) "Dampening" strategies to downregulate PA. A third factor emerged: (c) "Balancing" strategies, which were culturally salient for families in India and aimed for moderation. Among socialization behaviors, "Enhancing" and "Dampening" were inversely related, while "Balancing" related positively to each. Balancing and Controlling goals were only correlated to "Balancing" behaviors. Maximizing and Sharing goals were correlated positively with "Enhancing" and inversely with "Dampening." Longitudinally, Maximizing and Sharing and Balancing and Controlling goals were related to a significant increase and marginal decrease in "Dampening," respectively. Challenging the dichotomy, our findings highlight the relevance of balancing to theories of PA socialization.

挑战二分法:考察印度班加罗尔父母在积极情感方面的社会化目标和行为。
家长对青少年积极情绪(PA)的反应被分为增强型和抑制型两种。这种二分法可能不符合社区中关于情绪的文化脚本,在社区中,人们更倾向于积极情绪和消极情绪之间的平衡。为了以一种与印度城市中产阶级家庭文化相关的方式评估父母的 PA 社会化,我们开发了一种新的父母幸福目标测量方法,并改编了青少年快乐情绪反应量表 (RAHAS)。我们测试了这些量表的心理测量特性,并评估了父母在 5 个月内的社会化目标和行为之间的关系。我们的样本包括印度班加罗尔的 377 个青少年(84.4% 为女孩;Mage = 14.47)和父母(63.9% 为母亲)组合,主要是印度教徒。父母的目标因素有两个:"平衡和控制 "以及 "最大化和分享 "幸福。改编后的 RAHAS 出现了三个因素。两个因素与最初的 RAHAS 相同:(a) "增强 "上调 PA 的策略和 (b) "减弱 "下调 PA 的策略。第三个因素出现了:(c) "平衡 "策略,这是印度家庭的文化特色,旨在调节。在社会化行为中,"增强 "和 "抑制 "呈反向关系,而 "平衡 "则呈正向关系。平衡 "和 "控制 "目标只与 "平衡 "行为相关。最大化目标和分享目标与 "增强 "呈正相关,与 "削弱 "呈反相关。纵向来看,"最大化与分享 "目标和 "平衡与控制 "目标分别与 "抑制 "行为的显著增加和轻微减少有关。我们的研究结果对二分法提出了挑战,强调了平衡与 PA 社会化理论的相关性。
