Eun Ji Kim,Seong Yeon Park
Abstract
This study explored father`s proactive socialization beliefs as related to social behaviors of their children. The Subjects were 194 fathers and their 3- to 6-year-old children in Seoul. Instruments included 2 questionnaires : the Social Skills Questionnaire reported by fathers and Child Social Behaviors rated by teachers. Results showed that father`s socialization beliefs varied in terms of the importance of social skills, the reasons why parents believe children acquire or don`t acquire particular social skills, and the most effective strategies fathers hold for socialization of children. There were significant differences in father`s proactive beliefs by sex of child, economic status, and fathers` educational level. Fathers who emphasized child`s regulation of negative emotions had children showing low prosocial behaviors.
