Childrearing values, revised from the Kohn's scale with cultural concerns considered, are used to test the expected relationship. An attempt is also made to test the Western work socialization hypothesis in shaping parental childrearing values in Taiwan. The assumption of the dynamic process of parental values—parental behavior—children value is further delineated by comparing the relative importance between structural (i.e. parent's occupation, education) as well as contextual effects (e.g. family relation, family structure). Data are taken from a survey study conducted in 2000. 2750 9th graders and one of their parents in northern Taiwan were interviewed. Results indicate that there is an intergenerational transmission regarding childrearing values between parents and their teenagers in Taiwan. Not only identical four factors are found (conformity, curiosity, interpersonal harmony and self-constraint) for both parent's and children's samples, parent's specific value is shown to be the most significant factor accounting for children's corresponding childrearing value. Regarding the structural versus contextual effects, family relation is more important in explaining teenager's value orientation. Parent's work experience does not achieve the expected strong effect as reported in the West. But for mothers and teenagers alike, mothers engaged in blue-collar work or as housewives tend to result in a devalue of curiosity, a direct contrast with the highly educated parents. In general, the proposed model explains better for parent's own childrearing values and is more evident for mother's sample.
