Abstract
Several studies have documented the negative effects of economic stress on families and children; however, less is known about protective factors, especially in non-Western contexts. We examined multidimensional risk and protective factors that contribute to the well-being and parenting behaviors of mothers and fathers from low-income communities in Manila, Philippines.
