Intelligence and creativity of adolescents in the context of their parents’ educational attitudes

The thesis focuses on perceived educational attitudes of adolescents’ parents in relation to the development of the intellectual and creative potential of adolescents. Basic theories used to analyse this subject were: the parental attitudes typology by Anna Roe and Marvin Siegelman, the theory of fluid intelligence by Charles Spearman, and the theory of creativity by Stanisław Popek. The study has been conducted among pupils of a grammar school who were of legal age and come from villages or small towns. The following tests were used: the Parent-Child Relations Questionnaire (PCR), both “My mother” and “My father” versions, Raven's Progressive Matrices and KANH Questionnaire. The results indicate a correlation between protective and liberal attitudes of parents as perceived by the adolescents and their creativity and intelligence.

Parent Child

The article analyzes features of a modern family and shows the role of parent-child relations in the formation of the "I" image of a younger pupil; relationship between the peculiarities of parent-child relations and the degree of exposure of primary school children to the computer game reality is revealed. The thesis is substantiated that a certain type of upbringing, peculiarities of interaction with a child in a family provoke an excessive enthusiasm for computer games in children of primary school age, causing destructive changes in the construction of the "I" image of a younger pupil. The image of the "I" of active users of computer games is characterized by the indefiniteness of descriptions of the physical "I", weak reflection of their own emotional experiences and bodily sensations, unrealistic (overestimated) level claims, inadequate self-esteem. Child-parent relations in families where active and inactive users of computer games are brought up differ in the types of parental attitudes: acceptance, authoritarian hypersocialization, infantilization and symbiosis.
