AkhirPekan@MuseumNasional or Weekend at Museum Nasional is a Sunday family 15-20-minute theatre program organized by a museum consultancy, @Museum, in collaboration with Teater Koma for Indonesia’s National Museum. As a follow-up research, it zooms in on the decision-making process which leads to family participation in this cultural heritage appreciation program. Semi-structured interviews in this preliminary qualitative research to families attending the program show that aspiration, prior experience and the roles of mothers contributes to the process. It is hoped that this writing would provide feedbacks to other similar initiatives which promote the appreciation of cultural heritage.2398-4279 © 2017 The Authors.

This study examines children’s influence across stages in family decision making process while making buying decisions for child and family product in Indian rural and urban families. A cross-sectional survey method was carried out with “structured non-disguised” questionnaire to collect the primary data from the students of class eighth to twelfth in the age group of  13-to-18 years from 100 families residing in rural and 100 families residing in urban areas in Delhi, India. Statistical  tools such as mean, standard deviation and repeated measures ANOVA have been used to analyze and interpret the collected data. Children’s influence across three stages of decision making process was measured by using a ten-item scale developed by Talpade and Talpade (1995) and the reliability of the scale was assessed by calculating Cronbach alpha. The results of this study found that children in Indian families are also exerting influence in family buying decisions and (i) children’s influence in family decision making varies across decision making stages according to type of product; (ii) it is the child product for which children’s influence is higher.

While participation of parents in case planning in child protection is widely accepted as desirable, in practice both workers and parents are often left frustrated by the outcomes of child protection meetings. Two models of managing the decision making process are reviewed, Looking After Children (LAC) and Family Decision Making (FDM). Approaches to preparation, planning and management of conflict are highlighted. Strategies for facilitating parental participation are identified and can be applied more broadly to child protection meetings, to encourage more effective outcomes.

Past studies have considered gender of children as an important variable (Lee and Collins, 2000) in explaining the influence of child on family decision making. The findings from prior research suggest that in family purchases, female children (probably due to the early learning of sex roles) have more influence than male children (Lee and Collins, 2000; Moschis and Mitchell, 1986). This study provides a gender-wise analysis of children’s influence across stages of family decision making process in the purchase of child product and family product in Indian families. A cross-sectional survey method was carried out and the primary data for the study was collected through a “structured non-disguised” questionnaire. The sample population consisted of 488 male children and 278 female childrenin the age group 13 to 18 years.The collected data have been analyzed and interpreted with the help of statistical tools such as mean, standard deviation and repeated measures ANOVA. It was posited that children’s influence in stages of decision making process for child product and family product varies across (i) gender of children (H1), (ii) place of residence, i.e., rural and urban families (H2). Both the hypotheses were not supported by the analysis results.
