臺灣大型調查用家長教養量表之發展

Development of a Parenting Scale in Taiwan

許多研究指出傳統文化價值對父母教養行為和兒童發展有所影響，且育兒價值感也會影響父母教養行為。本研究旨在發展本土的短式家長教養觀與育兒價值量表，來測知家長教養的面向。本量表涵括「傳統教養觀念」以及「育兒價值感」兩個面向，以國民健康局之台灣出生世代先驅調查(TBCS)共1620位父母為樣本，進行信度效度考驗，結果顯示：在「家長教養觀量表」部分，信度Cronbach’s α係數為.708，效度之累積變異解釋量達53.6％；而在「育兒價值感量表」部分，信度Cronbach’s α係數為.798，效度之累積變異解釋量達62.8％。兩個面向各4題，施測時間約1-2分鐘，可視需要同時或獨立使用，由父母自行勾選；使用便利，可適合於大型的社會調查研究使用。

Cultural values would impact parenting and then the children’s developments are verified by literatures, researches also show that values of child rearing would have impacts on parenting. Thus, the purpose of this paper is to develop a short form of parenting concepts scale to measure the parenting of Taiwan parents. Two concepts are included in the scale: traditional parenting concepts and value of child-rearing. Scale is developed by the researchers using the 1620 parents from TBCS pilot study as subjects to conduct the validity and reliability tests. Results shows that Cronback’s α for the traditional parenting part is 0.708, mounts to 53.6% explained validity. Cronbach’sα is 0.798, 62.8% explained validity for the value of child-rearing part. There are 4 items for each part of the scale; it takes either parent 1-2 minutes to fill up the 8-item scale. It can be combined as one scale, or be used separately as two for each part, easy to be applied in large-scaled survey.
