We are testing a new system for linking grants to scientists.
The funding information displayed below comes from the
NIH Research Portfolio Online Reporting Tools and the
NSF Award Database.
The grant data on this page is limited to grants awarded in the United States and is thus partial. It can nonetheless be used to understand how funding patterns influence mentorship networks and vice-versa, which has deep implications on how research is done.

Social Cognition and Mothers'Responses to Misbehavior @ University of Texas Austin
A fundamental question in developmental psychology is what causes parents' behavior toward their children. Although the consequences of child rearing have long been studied, there has been relatively little attention to understanding the cognitive mediators of parental behavior. The goal of the proposed work is to explicate the links between parental thoughts and parental behavior by examining the social-cognitive processes involved in mothers' responses to common child misbehavior. In particular, mothers' attitudes and rules governing the use of one salient parental disciplinary response-physical punishment--will be studied, organized around a social information processing model. A total of six studies are proposed to test seven different hypotheses about why some mothers rely on physical punishment more than other mothers. In four of the studies, mothers' thoughts and reported responses are probed by an interactive computer program. In two other studies, maternal behavior will be examined. One study is designed to document the circumstances accompanying and maternal responses to episodes of child misbehavior in the home. Another study will compare the observed child management behavior of mothers who rely on physical punishment with mothers who do not use that response. The research will provide new information about the role of both proximal and distal thoughts on parental behavior, a topic that has been largely neglected in the field of child development.

Investigation Into Meta-Parenting @ University of Texas Austin
[unreadable] DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): [unreadable] Meta-parenting is defined as parental thoughts concerning the child-rearing domain that typically occur before or after parent-child interactions. Although some components of parental meta-cognition have been studied previously, meta-parenting, as a synthetic construct, has not. It is proposed that the construct is comprised of four components: anticipating, assessing, problem-solving, and reflecting. This two-year project has three goals: 1) to assess the occurrence and nature of meta-parenting in mothers and fathers; 2) to refine and investigate the psychometric properties of a new questionnaire designed to assess meta-parenting (The Meta-Parenting Profile Questionnaire, MPPQ); and 3) to test eight initial hypotheses about the construct. These hypotheses concern the determinants of meta-parenting (e.g., parental age and gender, education, stress) and one outcome--the quality of parent-child relationship. The proposed study consists of a cross-sectional investigation of meta-parenting in mothers and fathers of children aged 2 through 12. Participants will be 180 mothers and 90 fathers. The participants will be from three racial/ethnic groups: African-American, Mexican-American, and Euro-American. Mothers will fill out a series of questionnaires and then be interviewed. Three weeks later mothers will again complete the MPPQ. Fathers will also fill out the MPPQ. The proposed study will provide a rigorous initial test of the construct as well as lay the foundation for future investigations into this important but largely unrecognized aspect of parental social cognition. In turn, this construct should help investigators better understand parenting social cognition processes, child-rearing behavior, and the nature of effective parenting. [unreadable] [unreadable]
