Abstract
Data from the National Survey of Families and Households were analyzed to determine differences in parenting between black and white single mothers following divorce. Based on a cultural-ecological model and related literature, five parenting dimensions were assessed. ANCOVA and MAN-COVA, controlling for SES and time since divorce, indicated that black single mothers had higher expectations for their children and were more likely to report that their children had a higher quality of life than did the white mothers. No racial differences were found in parenting behaviors, parenting involvement, or satisfaction with the parenting role.
