Parenting Behaviours

IntroductionResearch shows anxiety clustering within families: a greater proportion of children with anxious parents develop symptoms of anxiety than children with non-anxious parents. Anxious children often describe their parents as over-controlling and intrusive, lacking in affection and warmth, with reports of decreased parental support.Objectives(1)to identify if parenting behaviors differ between anxious and non-anxious parents,(2)to discuss if these differences in behaviors can contribute to transgenerational transmission of anxiety.AimsIdentifying whether behaviour modification could reduce familial transmission rates of anxiety.MethodA search of OvidSP Medline, Google Scholar, and PubMed was performed, covering 1999 to 2010. Search terms used were: parenting, parents, maternal, paternal, or parental; and anxiety, PTSD, OCD, panic disorder, or phobia. 14 Papers were identified.ResultsWhile most papers identified differences in parenting between anxious and control parents, the conclusions were variable. Two observed increased amounts of controlling behaviour, 5 a decrease in sensitivity, 1 witnessed exageration of behaviours, and 5 a decrease in granting of autonomy or increased protectiveness.ConclusionThe most supported differences in anxious parenting are less granting of autonomy, and lower levels of sensitivity. Whilst in isolation they cannot explain how anxiety is transmitted, and appear to be reciprocally related to child anxiety and temperament, they give grounds for further research. In particular this review identifies the need to study the above behavioral components in longitudinal studies, to observe causal effects between parent behavior and child anxiety.

China, having gone through rapid economic reform, supported by urbanization, educational expansion, and family size reduction over past decades, is an important part of a worldwide sociodemographic trend that can be summarized as a shift from community/ Gemeinschaft to society/ Gesellschaft. Correlated with this sociodemographic trend, our qualitative and quantitative analyses document intergenerational change in grandmothers’ perception of socializing environments and developmental pathways of Chinese children. Grandmothers from Beijing ranked (a) three generations of children at ages 4 to 6 in their families (themselves, their children, and their grandchildren) on autonomy, curiosity, self-expression, obedience, and shyness and (b) three generations of parents in their families (their parents, themselves, and their children) on child-rearing behaviors: support, praise, criticism, and control. As predicted, we found an intergenerational increase in perceived child autonomy, curiosity, and self-expression—individualistic traits adapted to Gesellschaft environments. Also as predicted, perceived child obedience and shyness, adapted to Gemeinschaft environments, declined across the generations. Related changes in reported child-rearing behaviors were also expected and found: Grandmothers judged that parental support and praise (promotion socialization), which foster individuated self-development, increased significantly, although the pattern of parental criticism and control (prevention socialization) was less clear. Promotion-based socialization strategies were found to serve as a partial mediator of intergenerational differences in individualistic child behaviors. Results suggest that the younger generations exhibit more promotion-based socialization, leading to more individualistic child traits, as they adapt to China’s more Gesellschaft ecology, comprising urbanization, formal education, and smaller family size.

Based on evidence on parenting, the aim of the study was to develop a teaching questionnaire and to examine links to adolescent problem behaviors. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis, cluster analysis, and hierarchical linear modeling was used based on self-reports of 340 teachers (mean age 44.7 years, SD = 10.7) and their 5904 students (mean age 15.9 years, SD = 0.9). The three-dimensional factor structure could be confirmed. The dimension warmth and support was negatively associated with bullying in the class taught, and interaction between warmth and support and rules and control was negatively associated with cigarette smoking, cannabis use, and delinquency. On the other hand, psychological pressure was associated with low academic achievement. Although indications of the importance of teaching styles in the prevention of multiple adolescent problem behaviors were found, differences between teaching and parenting make further research necessary.

Immunodeficiency Syndrome

A survey measuring acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)-related behaviors and selected psychosocial factors was administered to 1091 tenth grade students residing in or near an AIDS epicenter. The purpose of the survey was to identify salient risk factors that could be targeted in AIDS prevention programs. By 15 years of age, one quarter of students reported engaging in behaviors that placed them at higher risk for acquiring infection with human immunodeficiency virus, and 3% of students reported engaging in very high-risk behaviors. Students exposed to certain psychosocial stressors (ie, adverse life circumstances and poor parental support), who engaged in other problem behaviors (ie, substance use and academic problems) and who had higher self-esteem, were more likely to engage in higher risk behaviors. Pediatricians and other clinicians, particularly those working in or near AIDS epicenters, who encounter adolescents with multiple psychosocial problems, should be alert to the possibility that these youths also are engaging in behaviors that place them at risk for AIDS. Comprehensive care for these teenagers must include an assessment of involvement in AIDS-risk behaviors and appropriate behavioral counseling.
