Abstract:

To explore the relationship between maternal gender meta-stereotypes on callous-unemotional traits in preschool children, as well as the role of parental burnout and family function in this relationship, this study surveyed 803 mothers of preschool children using the Negative Maternal Gender Meta-stereotypes Scale, Positive Maternal Gender Meta-stereotypes Scale, Short-form Parental Burnout Scale, Family Function Assessment Scale, and Callous-unemotional Traits Scale. The results indicated that: (1)Negative maternal gender meta-stereotypes showed a significant positive correlation with callous-unemotional traits in preschool children, while the positive maternal gender meta-stereotypes exhibited a significant negative correlation with these traits; (2) Parental burnout and family function played a chain mediation role between the maternal gender meta-stereotypes and callous-unemotional traits. This research uncovers the intergenerational transmission path of maternal psychological stress through the family system.
