Low parental warmth and high control are associated with parental depression and with the development of depression in children. The majority of this research, however, has focused on non-Hispanic White (NHW) parents. The present study tested whether parenting behaviors differed by race/ethnicity in a sample (N = 169) of parents with a history of depression. Participants were drawn from a randomized trial designed to prevent depression in at-risk adolescents (ages 9-15 years old). All participating parents had a current or past depressive episode within the youth's lifetime. Parents self-classified as 67.5% NHW, 17.2% Latinx (LA), and 15.4% Black (BL). Youths and parents completed standardized positive and negative interaction tasks; trained raters coded the videotaped interactions for parental warmth and control. Analyses examined the impact of race/ethnicity, current parent depression symptoms, context of the discussion (positive/negative task), and demographic covariates on observed parenting behaviors. Results revealed significant interactions among race/ethnicity, depression, and task type. Differences in warmth and control between racial/ethnic groups were more likely to be observed in negative interactions and when parents' depression symptoms were lower. In these circumstances, BL parents were rated as higher in control and lower in warmth than NHW parents. Results add to the literature on racial/ethnic differences in parenting among parents with a history of depression and highlight the importance of assessing parenting in context to capture more subtle patterns of interactions between parents and offspring.

抑郁父母养育行为的种族/民族差异。

父母的低热情和高控制力与父母的抑郁症以及儿童抑郁症的发展有关。然而，这项研究的大部分集中在非西班牙裔白人 (NHW) 父母。本研究测试了有抑郁症病史的父母样本（N = 169）的养育行为是否因种族/民族而异。参与者来自一项旨在预防高危青少年（9-15 岁）抑郁症的随机试验。所有参与的父母在青少年一生中当前或过去都曾有过抑郁症发作。父母自我分类为 67.5% NHW、17.2% 拉丁裔 (LA) 和 15.4% 黑人 (BL)。青少年与家长完成标准化正负互动任务；训练有素的评估者对录像中的互动进行编码，以体现父母的温暖和控制。分析检查了种族/民族、当前父母抑郁症状、讨论背景（积极/消极任务）以及人口统计协变量对观察到的养育行为的影响。结果显示种族/民族、抑郁症和任务类型之间存在显着的相互作用。在消极互动和父母抑郁症状较低时，更有可能观察到种族/族裔群体之间的温暖和控制差异。在这种情况下，BL 父母被认为比 NHW 父母控制能力更高，温暖程度更低。研究结果丰富了关于有抑郁病史的父母在养育子女方面存在种族/民族差异的文献，并强调了在背景下评估养育方式以捕捉父母与子女之间更微妙的互动模式的重要性。（PsycInfo 数据库记录 (c) 2023 APA，保留所有权利）。
