Correlation of Environment and Child’s Development ProblemUniversity of ***Last summer, I had an internship for 3 months at Yeonsae University Hospital in South Korea. During this time, I worked under a psychologist who was researching his study on “Does a parent’s parenting affect their child’s behavior.” I assisted him with this study by collecting pertaining data from the Adolescent Rehabilitation Center in Kyunggi-do, South Korea. It reported that the average age of an adolescent was less than 14 years old, most of them charged with serious stealing, attempted murder, and sexual assault. After performing a survey on 845 parents and children, we found out that parents were typically low- educated (graduated middle school). And despite working more than 16 hours per day, their income was less than 300 dollars a month. It came as a shock to me because I grew up in the capital city, which is one of the most affluent cities in South Korea, where a parent’s average income exceeds 10,000 ed for the data, were recruited from marriage licenses published in a local newspaper. All couples participated without monetary compensation. Subjects were decided based upon age, race, education, annual personal income, and the number of months they had lived with their spouse. Parent personality traits were assessed by the exterior. Marital quality was the number of ineffective arguing and commitment. Social support was measured with parents’ rated relationship from their own family, partner’s family, own friends, and partner’s friends. According to the data, there was not much related between father’s personality traits, marital quality, and social support and child’s behavior problem but there was a significant link with mother’s and child.One of the major strengths of this study is that the researchers took various kinds of measurements to know a child’s environment. They did interview, survey, and conformed batteries to measure their subjects. However, there were 3 weaknesses; SD in parents and children. Researchers were not sure if the genetic basis for this disorder or not.Rachel and Sarah designed their study to test whether or not parental trauma exposure to the development of depressive and anxiety disorders in the adult offspring of Holocaust survivors. Subjects (n=135) were combined, fifty five men and eighty women. This sample of subjects (n=60), selected for the data, have been born to at least one biological parent who experienced the Nazi Holocaust, 33 were offspring of Holocaust survivors but having parent with PTSD, and 42 were normal people whose parents were not involved Holocaust.The researchers used the data from the comprehensive psychiatric interview about lifetime psychiatric diagnoses and exposure to distressing events was gained. Then, subjects were asked to do a checklist from the 17 DSM-IV symptoms of PTSD to evaluate their parents. Researchers divided subjects as three group; ‘parental PTSD’ group which consisted of 23 men and 37 womee level of dispute between the parents. Until this study was conducted, progress has been made in studying these involved topics, so that finding are beginning to appear to inform court and family decision making.Irwin and Jonathan designed their study to test whether or not the effect of interparental conflict and father warmth and mother warmth to child internalizing behavior problems. Subjects (n=182) were combined, seventy eight men and one hundred four women. At the first interviews, the age of child ranged from 5 to 12 where the mean age was 9.97. European American fathers and mothers are 86% and 89% out of all subjects, 5% for each of fathers and mothers are Hispanic, 3% of fathers and 2% of mothers are African American, and 1% of fathers and 2% of mothers are Asian American. Researchers measured interparental conflict from Children’s Perception of Interparental Conflict Scale (CPICS) and asked three question of how many times they had arguing during the last month, the reason ofactor and children’s behavior problem. First study was about that how parenting affects to their children’s behavior problem. This study has strengths that researchers took various kinds of measurements to know a child’s environment. Furthermore it has weaknesses that researchers did not select their subjects randomly, the number of subjects was too small to represent all children in the world, and the children were not given any rights to refuse this study. Second study was about that how parents with PTSD affect to their offspring’s emotional problem. This study has strengths that the number of subjects was enough to generalize, and the types of subjects were various. Also it has a weakness that researchers did not sensitivity of the method is generally low. Third study was about that effect of parent’s warmth to children’s behavior problems. This study has strength that the number of subjects was enough to generalize and the measurement was proper. Also it has weaknesses that self-T 2
