Kev txhawb siab: Hmong parents’ educational encouragement of their undergraduate daughter/son
Main Article Content
Abstract
This study quantitatively examined 121 Hmong parents’ self-efficacy, expectations, and cultural values relative to their educational encouragement of their undergraduates. Differences of relationships between parents’ self-efficacy and encouragement were yielded for father-son and father-daughter pairings as well as mother-son and mother-daughter pairings, respectively. Parental self-efficacy emerged as a positive predictor of parental educational encouragement as well as mediated the relationship of expectations and encouragement. Limitations, future research, and implications are discussed.
