Abstract Details

2007, PhD, University of Cincinnati, Arts and Sciences : Psychology.
The current study examined family functioning, parental efficacy, and racial differences associated with increased levels of pre-adolescent efficacy, among 203 eight-to-twelve-year-old girls. Family functioning, parental efficacy, child efficacy, and race were assessed using items from The McMaster Family Assessment Device (FAD), Parent Stress Index-Third Edition (PSI), Perceived Competence Scale for Children, and the present study’s intake form, respectively. Results revealed that an increase in family functioning alone did not predict an increase in child efficacy, nor was the relationship moderated by race. Increased parental efficacy was found to increase family functioning, while family functioning was subsequently found to increase child efficacy.
