Through parenting, parents transmit different cultural values to their children, including how one should behave when becoming a parent. Therefore, it was hypothesized that intergenerational transmission of parenting could be one strong factor that contributes to parenting styles. While empirical evidence has been found to support this hypothesis in the West, few studies have been done on the question in Chinese culture. The lack of intergenerational parenting studies in Chinese cultural contexts could possibly be due to the fact that Chinese and other Asian populations are underrepresented in the psychology literature (Chang, Lansford, Schwartz, & Farver, 2004). Therefore, the primary purpose of this study was to fill this research gap in Chinese parenting studies to examine the intergenerational transmission of parenting in Hong Kong. The purpose of this study was threefold: first, to examine whether parenting would be transmitted from one generation to the next in the Hong Kong Chinese culture; second, to replicate Western intergenerational studies on parenting that have claimed that parenting in one generation direct predicts that in the next generation, and subsequent predicts children's behaviours and third, to examined the mechanism through which parenting is transmitted from one generation to the next so that further insights on the relationship of intergeneration parenting can be derived. In this study, 261 mother-child dyads were recruited in this study through convenience sampling. All participants were asked to fill out the demographic information form and reported on their childhood experience. In addition, mothers were asked to report on their own parenting styles (G2) and their own mothers' parenting styles (G1). Children were asked to self-report on their behaviour and emotional outcomes. Prior to the main analyses, preliminary analyses were conducted to provide descriptive details of the sample, and path analyses were used to examine the two major hypotheses of this study. Results of this study showed that parenting styles are transmitted across generations from mothers to daughters in all parenting dimensions. Daughters' parenting permissiveness was found to be negatively associated with their children's anxiety and externalizing behaviour, and positively with their children's agreement and satisfaction with their parenting strategies in this sample. Further, it mothers' parenting was found to affect daughters' agreement and satisfaction to their mothers' parenting and their experience of happiness and fulfillment during childhood, which subsequently affected daughters' parenting during motherhood. The present study joins a growing body of evidence that supports the intergenerational transmission of parenting (Bailey et al., 2009; Belsky et al., 2005). Further, children had less agreement and satisfaction when mothers adopted parenting authoritarianism and consequently led to their less using of this same parenting strategy when being parent. When children felt happy and satisfied with their mothers' parenting, they were more likely to be influenced by the Chinese traditional value on authoritarianism and adopt such parenting dimension with their own children. The present study also identified three directions for future intergenerational parenting studies and clinical considerations for counselling children and parents in Hong Kong.
