Indulgent Parenting

Recent emergent research is seriously questioning whether parental strictness contributes to children’s psychosocial adjustment in all cultural contexts. We examined cross-generational differences in parental practices characterized by warmth and practices characterized by strictness, as well as the relationship between parenting styles (authoritative, indulgent, authoritarian, and neglectful) and psychosocial adjustment in adulthood. Parenting practices characterized by warmth (affection, reasoning, indifference, and detachment) and strictness (revoking privileges, verbal scolding, and physical punishment) were examined. Psychosocial adjustment was captured with multidimensional self-concept and well-being (life satisfaction and happiness). Participants were 871 individuals who were members of three generations of Spanish families: College students (G3), their parents (G2), and their grandparents (G1). Results showed two different cross-generational patterns in parenting practices, with an increased tendency toward parental warmth (parents use more affection and reasoning but less indifference across generations) and a decreased tendency toward parental strictness (parents use revoking privileges, verbal scolding, and physical punishment less across generations). Interestingly, despite cross-generational differences in parenting practices, a common pattern between parenting styles and psychosocial adjustment was found: indulgent parenting was related to equal or even better self-concept and well-being than authoritative parenting, whereas parenting characterized by non-warmth (authoritarian and neglectful) was related to poor scores.

Research Narrative

Reading lists of developmental psychology courses are replete with scientific theory and research. Narrative material from literature can supplement this theory and research by elucidating psychological concepts with real-life examples, while deepening students' appreciation for the complexity and diversity of development. In several courses I have used Maya Angelou's (1969) I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, which is highly effective at illustrating many child development topics: development of self-concept and self-esteem, ego resilience, industry versus inferiority, effects of abuse, parenting styles, sibling and friendship relations, gender issues, cognitive development, puberty, and identity formation in adolescence. Students react very positively to the book and to a paper in which they analyze Angelou's development using theory and research from the course.

Objective. To examine the relationship between parenting styles (of mothers and fathers), children’s self-concept, and subjective and objective measures of metacognition, and to investigate whether self-concept and parenting style predicted metacognition. Methodology. A convenience sample of 196 students who belong to an official educational institution was used; this study implemented a quantitative correlational design. The study also used a series of ordinary least squares (OLS) regression models to examine the extent to which mothers’ and fathers’ parenting styles as well as children’s self-concept predicted children’s subjective metacognitive awareness and objective metacognitive monitoring. Results. Parenting styles predicted metacognition in three learning domains (reading comprehension, mathematics, and similarities), although in different ways. Furthermore, children’s self-concepts also predicted metacognition in all three domains. Conclusion. Education must extend beyond school and children to include family. These educational outreach efforts should incorporate more than just how family life affects learning outcomes, such as children’s performance in academic domains, but also how family life affects children’s metacognitive abilities.

Dyslexic children may be more likely to form a negative self-concept, especially with poor educational experiences and negative parenting. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the self-concept of Chinese dyslexic children in primary school, and explore the influence factors of self-concept as well as its relationship with parenting style. A total of 50 children with dyslexia and 50 non-dyslexics matched for age, grade and gender participated in the study. We used the Piers-Harris children’s self-concept scale (PHCSS) and the Chinese version of Egna Minnen Beträffande Uppfostran for Children (EMBU-C) to evaluate the self-concept and parenting styles of the study population. Our results indicated that the academic competence, popularity and general self-concept in the dyslexic group were significantly lower than those in the control group (p < 0.05). Based on the multivariate linear regression, we also found that residence (β = −0.32, p < 0.05) and physical activity (β = 0.36, p < 0.01) may influence factors self-concept in dyslexic children. In addition, a moderate and positive correlation was found between the self-concept of physical appearance and maternal emotional warmth (r = 0.36, p < 0.05) by using the Spearman correlation analysis. Our outcomes suggested that children with dyslexia have a poorer self-concept than typical developing children. The self-concept of dyslexic children should be improved in order to achieve better physical and mental development.

The present study focused on parenting styles and its impact on the self-concept of secondary school students. The sample consisted of 200 adolescent students of class 9th and 10th of schools of Pathankot city. Data was analysed by using correlation and hierarchical multiple regression. Moderate and significant correlations were observed between parenting styles (democratic, autocratic and accepting) and self-concept of the adolescents. To detect the overall effect of gender as moderator in the relationship between parenting styles and self-concept of adolescents, the R2 values of the regression model that included parenting styles, i.e. democratic, autocratic and accepting and their interactions with gender was compared with the regression model having parenting styles without interaction terms. No significant interaction effect of gender of adolescent and parenting styles (democratic, autocratic and accepting) was observed in the analysis. Democratic parenting style was the strongest predictor of self-concept among adolescents. Parents must be taught that parenting should involve an appropriate balance of warmth and restrictiveness.

Introduction. The objective of the research is to identify and describe the relationship between the style of upbringing in the family and the formation of self-concept in adolescents, to establish a relationship between positive and negative styles of upbringing in the family and the formation of individual indices of self-concept of adolescents. Materials and methods. The research employed the following methods: “Q-sorting” (V. Stefanson), “Review of feelings, reactions and beliefs” (K. Rogers) adapted by S. L. Bratchenko, and “Personal differential” (E. F. Bazhin, A. M. Etkind). The study of the family upbringing styles involves the following instruments “Adolescents about Parents” (ADOR), approved by St. Petersburg Bekhterev Psychoneurological Institute, “Measurement of parental attitudes and reactions” (PARY) by E. Schaefer, Test questionnaire of parental attitudes, developed by A. Ya. Varga and V. V. Stolin, the method of diagnosing value orientations by B.S. Kruglov (an adapted and modified version of M. Rokeach’s instrument); the methods of mathematical and statistical processing, and data interpretation (correlation and regression analysis). Research results. The research has identified positive and negative styles of upbringing in the family. The findings indicate that infantilization, rejection, authoritarian hyper-socialization, and directiveness lead to the formation of such qualities in teenagers as isolation, lack of communication, lack of confidence in themselves and their strengths, and the feelings of inferiority and isolation, which negatively affects the building of their self-concept. Conclusion. The experiment made it possible to conclude that the factor of family upbringing is crucial in the formation of self-concept and develop a correction program. Further research is associated with an in-depth study of the family upbringing conditions and the establishment of their influence on the process of building the self-concept in adolescents in various socio-cultural environments. Keywords: self-concept, family upbringing, parenting style, teenager, positive self-concept, positive and negative parenting styles.
