ABSTRACT
This chapter focuses on the spread of Eastern (collectivistic) parenting styles. These styles are listed by race or ethnicity (for example, Chinese parenting) rather than by universal norms as they developed in their own cultures, and there is no one-to-one comparison with Western parenting styles mentioned earlier. A little history and some cultural issues precede the descriptions of these styles, which are then supported with studies from research from the Eastern world. Related issues like punishment and childrearing are mentioned, and a brief look at parenting measurement wraps up the chapter.
