Abstract

PURPOSE
The study was done to explore the effect of perception of parental rearing attitude and social support on self-efficacy and stress among school-aged children, then to supply information for health promotion of children and to promote multi-cultural communication between Korea and China.
METHODS
The participants for this study were 180 elementary students each, from Korea and China. Data were analyzed with descriptive statistics, chi-square test, t-test, correlation analysis and AMOS.
RESULTS
Social support had a direct effect on self-efficacy for both Korean and Chinese children. In Korea parental rearing attitude had greater direct effect on stress than social support and self-efficacy. But in China only, parental rearing attitude had direct effect on stress.
CONCLUSION
These findings provide support for perception of parental rearing attitude, social support, and self-efficacy as predictive variables of stress in Korean and Chinese school-aged children.
