Influence Of Parent-Child Relationship On Executive Function Of 3-6-Year-Old Children: Regulating Effect Of Temperament

Executive function is a complex cognitive process,which coordinates the activities of multiple cognitive subsystems in a dynamic and flexible manner in the process of trying out target behavior.Executive function of the later academic ability of the individual.Social development level has an important impact.Development scenario theory and interaction model advocate to study individual development from the interaction of individual characteristics and family environment.The relationship between parent-child relationship and executive function development.In this study,a total of 504 children and their parents were selected from 12 kindergartens in Shanghai to study the executive function,temperament(negative emotion,extroversion,hard control)and parent-child relationship(conflict)of middle and small class children.The relationship between parent-child relationship and executive function is analyzed,and the role of toddler temperament in parent-child relationship and executive function is further discussed.The results are as follows:First,there is no significant difference in the gender demographic variables in the executive function,but there is significant difference in the age demographic variable.The older the executive function is,the better the performance of the executive function is.Secondly,temperament is correlated with executive function,which shows that extroversion is negatively correlated with HTKS,temperament is correlated with parent-child relationship,effort control is positively correlated with intimacy,and conflict is negatively correlated.There was a significant positive correlation between negative emotion and conflict,and a significant negative correlation between parent-child relationship and executive function,and a significant negative correlation between conflict and HTKS.Third,the conflict dimension of parent-child relationship can predict the executive function of children significantly negatively.When the conflict between parents and children is greater,the performance of executive function is worse,whereas the lower the conflict between parents and children,the better the performance of executive function of children.Fourth,temperament play a regulatory role between the parent-child relationship and executive function of extroversion on moderating effect between intimacy and inhibitory control,when the children of high extraversion,parent-child relationship intimacy is higher,the better performance of executive function;when children low extraversion,parent-child relationship cannot predict infants' executive function.Negative emotions on intimacy and inhibition control effect.When the negative emotional high,intimacy could negatively predict children's executive function;when the negative mood low,intimacy could positively predict children's executive function.
