This paper is focused on the family as a context for development of formal thinking. Parents? mediation and cultural tools in family environment were investigated through relationship between formal thinking and the two basic dimensions of family interaction. Psychological autonomy-giving vs. psychological control and emotional exchange were examined in the context of the family's cultural status. For this purpose, the Scale of parents? mediation means was constructed, inspired by Piaget's concept of formal operations and by Vygotsky?s concept of genetic law. The scale quantifies forms of parent?s behaviors/attitudes towards the child that could serve as mediation means for specific development of formal thinking. The data show: (1) that there is no significant relationship between the two basic dimensions of family interaction and development of formal thinking; and (2) that cultural status of the family and specific parents? mediation are relevant for child's development of formal operations. .

Formal Operations

Contemporary authors emphasise the importance of viewing the family as a specific educational context and of studying its role in the cognitive development. In this paper, we tested the model that postulates the way in which the different ways of parental mediation and various means of the family cultural-supportive system affect the development of formal operations. We assumed that the education of parents and financial status of the family form a wider context that influences the general dimensions of family interaction (emotional exchange and democratism), but also the cultural-pedagogical status of the family, and that their connection with formal operations is mediated by the above-mentioned variables. We expected the education of parents and general dimensions of family interaction to influence the parental mediation characteristic for the development of formal operations, operationalised by CSS scale, and to mediate, via this variable, the development of that form of thinking. The direct link with formal operations is postulated in the case of variables of cultural-pedagogical status and CSS scale. The sample consists of 305 pupils aged 15 to 19. The Structural Equation Modeling was used for testing the postulated model. The results show that there is a direct influence of cultural-pedagogical status and CSS scale on formal operations, but of mother's education as well. Some relations between other predictors were confirmed, and some not, which suggests that the proposed explanatory model must be revised to some degree.

Predictive Relationship

This study focused on providing a descriptive analysis of patterns of family interaction among bilingual, bicultural Mexican Americans, as provided by the disabled family member. Through a six month follow-up of subjects the study explored the predictive relationship between scores on the Family Environment Scale (FES), and a criterion variable: counselor 6 month rating of progress toward vocational potential. Results were compared with those provided in the original normative study by Moos and Moos (1981), showing statistically significant mean differences (p.05) on 9 of the 10 FES subscales. Correlational analyses also indicated a significant relationship between 6 month rating of progress toward vocational potential and Expressiveness (r=.38, p =.01).
