Overview

Randomized trial examines the relationship between perceived neglectful parenting and depressive symptoms in multicultural adolescents, suggesting key mental health intervention areas.

Key Points

  • This research aims to explore how perceived neglectful parenting affects depressive symptoms in multicultural adolescents through bicultural acceptance and social withdrawal.
  • Data obtained from the Multicultural Adolescents Panel Study across Grades 6, 9, and 12 (n = 1443, 1329, 1146 respectively).
  • Partial least squares structural equation modeling was utilized to analyze the relationships among variables while controlling for demographic factors.
  • Focus on participants from Korean father–immigrant mother households.
  • Higher perceived neglectful parenting linked to lower bicultural acceptance attitudes (β = -0.45, p < 0.01).
  • Bicultural acceptance negatively associated with social withdrawal and depressive symptoms (β = -0.30, p < 0.01).
  • Social withdrawal showed a strong positive association with depressive symptoms (β = 0.50, p < 0.01).
