This study aims to explore the relationship between socioeconomic status and child behaviors, along with parenting characteristics.
Archival dataset of 130 preschoolers and their female caregivers
Examined multiple indicators of socioeconomic status
Analyzed the role of family structure as a predictor and moderator
Lower socioeconomic status was linked to more negative parenting practices and higher maternal parenting stress, with p<0.05.
Father figure presence correlated with reduced negative parenting and suggested lower maternal distress, but did not significantly moderate SES impacts on child outcomes.
