Mothers' Perceptions of Children's Problems with Mathematics: A Cross-National Comparison.
Crystal, David S.; Stevenson, Harold W.
Journal of Educational Psychology, v83 n3 p372-76 Sep 1991
Perceptions of U.S. (n=870), Chinese (n=709), and Japanese (n=713) mothers about their children's problems with first and fifth grade mathematics were examined in two studies. Results suggest that U.S. mothers evaluated their children's skills less critically and had lower mathematics achievement standards than did Asians. (SLD)
