Parenting and Child Development in Low- and Middle-Income Countries (Studies in Parenting Series)
Share
Summary
* Provides much-needed perspective on parenting in low- and middle-income countries, where the majority of parenting research still focuses on WEIRD (Western, educated, industrialized, rich, democratic) countries.
* Compares data about four specific domains of parenting (Caregiving, Discipline, Environment and Public Health) in relation to development in children 1-5 years of age in more than 50 countries, advancing knowledge of both parenting and child development in diverse LMIC contexts.
* The book is timely and particularly needed as researchers and practitioners increasingly emphasize the importance of understanding how parenting and child development are influenced by cultural contexts
