Low Socioeconomic Status and Child Development

社会经济地位是根据个体获取或控制有价值资源而对其进行的层级排名,低社会经济地位会对儿童的身体健康、认知发展、情绪适应和行为问题等产生消极影响,中介模式与调节模式两种理论对这些影响的机制进行了解释。政府和全社会都要积极行动起来,以促进低社会经济地位儿童的健康成长与发展。

Socioeconomic status(SES) refers to a hierarchy ranking based on the amount of valuable resources that an individual or a family has access to or controls.Low SES has negative effects on children's physical health,cognitive development,emotional adaptation and behavior problems,etc.The mechanisms of these effects have been explained by two theories:the mediating model and the moderating model.Therefore,it is important that the government and the whole society should actively join hands to promote the positive growth and development of low SES children.
