Immigrant. Meta-synthesis. Parenting. Abstract: Problem While studies have discussed the parenting practices and challenges of African immigrants, no paper has synthesized the results of these qualitative studies. We conducted a qualitative synthesis of the literature to summarize and interpret knowledge of African immigrants' parenting practices and challenges in destination countries to identify future directions for research, policy, and practice. Eligibility We used a qualitative research synthesis method involving meta-summary and meta-synthesis of the literature. A research librarian assisted in searching ten databases. Two members of the research team independently reviewed 1794 articles. We included articles that: (a) reported a qualitative research study; (b) was written in English; and (c) provided the perspective of African immigrant parents on their parenting practices and/or challenges. Sample A total of 24 articles met our inclusion criteria. Results Our results indicate that parenting practices of African immigrants include the following: changes in discipline practices across transnational borders and the use of physical discipline, respect as a deeply embedded value of parenting, integration of cultural values into parenting, and integration of religious practices into parenting. We also found gender differences in parenting. Challenges faced by African immigrants in parenting their children in destination countries include lack of informal/community support, access to services and lack of formal support, cultural conflict in parenting, fear related to social services, and language barriers. Conclusion and Implications Our study identifies a need for culturally appropriate policies and practices that build on the strengths of African immigrants in destination countries while addressing their unique challenges.

Tummy Time for Latinos With Limited English Proficiency / Nitsos, Alexandra in Journal of Pediatric Nursing, Vol.36 No.5 (Sep-Oct) 2017 ([10/18/2017]) 

Public ISBD No review available on this record. [article]  inJournal of Pediatric Nursing > Vol.36 No.5 (Sep-Oct) 2017 [10/18/2017] . - p.31-36. Title : Tummy Time for Latinos With Limited English Proficiency : Evaluating the Feasibility of a Cultural and Linguistically Adapted Parent Education Intervention Material Type: printed text Authors: Nitsos, Alexandra, Author ; Estrada, Robin Dawson, Author Publication Date: 2017 Article on page: p.31-36. Languages : English (eng) Original Language : English (eng) Keywords: African. Immigrant. Meta-synthesis. Parenting. Abstract: Purpose Tummy Time is preventive positioning designed to strengthen an infant's neck and upper body muscles and minimize musculoskeletal disorders, including positional plagiocephaly. Latino parents with limited English proficiency (LEP) may experience barriers to receiving instruction on this important health-promotion strategy. Study aims included 1) adaptation and implementation of a Spanish-language version of Tummy Time; 2) evaluation of participant Tummy Time knowledge; and 3) assessment of efficacy and acceptability of the Spanish language intervention. Design and Methods This feasibility study involved translation of educational materials into Spanish, creation of Spanish-language print materials, and training of bilingual research assistants to deliver the educational intervention. Participants were 21 Latino expectant and current parents with self-identified LEP. Participants completed brief pre- and post-tests and performed a return demonstration. Results Participant knowledge of Tummy Time increased post-intervention. Program evaluation and on-site observations supported feasibility and acceptability. Conclusions The cultural and linguistic tailoring of targeted educational interventions is a feasible and potentially effective strategy to overcome barriers experienced by parents with limited English proficiency and may contribute to improved infant health outcomes.
