The purpose of this study is to examine cultural differences and similarities in mothers' involvement in children's task performance. The cultural differences in the influence of mothers's involvement on children's emotion expression and self-regulation were also examined. Sixty five Korean children and seventy eight Japanese children at age 6 participated in this study. Interactive behaviors of mothers and children were videotaped and analyzed by coders. Results showed that Japanese mothers showed helping behaviors and encouragement more frequently than did Korean mothers. In addition, Japanese children expressed more smiles than did Korean children. About mother-child relationship, helping behaviors of Korean mothers were significantly correlated with children's negative emotions, but this relation was not significant for Japanese mother-child dyads. Mothers' encouragement was significantly associated with children's positive emotion in the Japanese group, but not in the Korean group. The results were discussed in terms of cultural characteristics of Korea and Japan.
