A Study On Correlation Between The Growth And Development Of Preschool Children And Parents’ Health Literacy And Parenting Styles

Objective:To understand the current status of growth and development,parents’health literacy and parenting styles of preschool children,to analyze the differences in general demographic characteristics of growth and development,parents’ health literacy,and parenting styles of preschool children,to explore the impact of parents’health literacy and parenting styles on the growth and development of preschool children,provides basic data for related research and nursing interventions to improve the growth and development level of preschool children.Methods:This study is a correlation study in non-experimental research.During March to May 2019,used the convenience sampling method to select two kindergartens samples in Yanji City according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria.The survey tool include the self-designed general demographic characteristics scale,WHO BMI standard for 0～7 years old(2006 version),Conners parents symptom scale,parents,health literacy scale,and parental styles scale.statistical software SPSS20.0 was used to analyze the data.The survey used percentage,mean,standard deviation,chi-square test,t test,ANOVA analysis of variance,and logistic regression analysis.result:(1)Among 408 preschool children in this study,with an average age of(5.10 ±1.18)years,boys 217(52.9%),only child 276(67.6%),children living with their parents 365(89.4%).The BMI of 344 preschool children was normal,about 84.3%r.The abnormal rate of BMI of boys is higher than that of girls(18.0%>13.1%).The rate of dental caries in preschool children is relatively high,about 44.1%.The rate of dental caries among children over 6 years old is the highest(57.7%).In the detection of children’s problem behaviors,the total detection rate was 11.5%,and the detection rate of impulsivity was the highest(4.7%),followed by conduct behaviors(4.4%),mental disorders(3.7%),and learning problems(2.9%),Anxiety(2.2%),the lowest is the hyperactivity index(2.0%).Among the physiological indicators of children’s growth and development,the body mass index BMI abnormal rate increases with age.,the abnormal rate of boys is significantly higher than girls.The incidence of oral caries in children increases with age,the caries rate of Koreans is lower than Hans and other ethnic groups.The behavior and impulsivity of Han and other children are higher than Korean,the learning problcms.of Han and other children aged 5 to 6 are higher than Korean children of other ages.The hyperactivity index of Han and other boys is higher than that of Korean Girls.(2)Of the 408 parents of preschool children,the mother is 327(80.1%),the average age is 34.73±4.34 years old,and the Korean nationality is 145(35.5%);the marital status is mainly married parents 386(94.6%),140(34.3%)undergraduate degree and above,141(34.6%)self-employed;259(63.5%)per capita monthly income ≥ 4000 yuan.The average score of parent-child upbringing related health literacy was 75.46±11.35 points,and the availability rate was 40.0%.the health literacy level of mothers with high education level and occupations being medical workers is relatively high.(3)Most parents adopt democratic parenting styles,followed by authoritarian(2.63±0.50)points,laissez-faire(2.55±0.38)points,spoiled(1.95±0.41)points,the lowest score is consistent parenting styles(1.86±0.49).In terms of general demographic characteristics,parents with higher education level tend to be more democratic in their parenting styles;Korean parents’parenting styles are more spoiled and inconsistent;and parents who are farmers are more likely to adopt laissez-faire parenting the way.(4)The results of multi-factor logistics regression analysis show over 4 years old,boys,Han and other ethnic,parents adopting spoiled and inconsistent parenting styles are risk factors for children’s growth and development;parents having health literacy and adopting democratic parenting methods are the protective factors for children’s growth and development.conclusion:(1)The growth and development level of preschool children is terrible,the older and Han and other nationality boys are more likely to be abnormal during growth and development.(2)The parent-children’s parenting-related health literacy level is relatively low,and the mother with high education level and occupations as medical workers is relatively high.(3)Parenting styles for preschool children of parents are mostly democratic parenting styles.Parents with higher education level tend to use democratic parenting styles.Parents of Korean nationality more use spoiled and inconsistent parenting styles.Parents whose occupation is farmers more use laissez-faire upbringing parenting styles.(4)Over 4 years old,boys,Han and other ethnic,parents adopting spoiled and inconsistent parenting styles are risk factors for children’s growth and development;parents having health literacy and adopting democratic parenting methods are the protective factors for children’s growth and development.
