為探究祖輩參與教養對幼兒社會能力的影響及作用機制,采用祖父母參與幼兒生活狀況調查問卷、親職壓力簡表、父母教養能力感量表和兒童社會能力與行為評價量表,對691名幼兒及其母親和祖輩進行調查。結果發現:(1)祖輩參與教養與幼兒社會能力呈顯著正相關;(2)母親育兒壓力和母親教養效能感在祖輩參與教養和幼兒社會能力間起部分中介作用;(3)母親育兒壓力、母親教養效能感在祖輩參與教養和幼兒社會能力間起鏈式中介作用。

This study investigated the effects of grandparents’ involvement on preschool children’s social competence and its underlying mechanism. Six hundred and ninety-one mothers of 3-6 years old children were asked to report their parenting stress, parenting self-efficacy, their children’s social competence and grandparents’ involvement through online questionnaires. The results showed that:1) Grandparents’ involvement and children’s social competence were significantly positively correlated. 2) Maternal parenting stress and maternal parenting self-efficacy played partial mediating roles between grandparents’ involvement and children’s social competence. 3) Maternal parenting stress and maternal parenting self-efficacy played significant chain mediating roles between grandparents’ involvement and children’s social competence.
