Abstract
We investigated cultural differences in parental beliefs and practices around children’s reading and math socialization across Kosovo, Turkey, and the US (N = 941). Using survey data, findings revealed significant cross-country differences in parental confidence, activity engagement, and the importance of benchmarks, highlighting cultural influences on early academic development.
