| Self report of negative parenting styles, psychological functioning and risk of negative parenting by one parent being replicated by the other in a sample of adolescents aged 13-15. |
| Summary: Reports on a study aiming to establish the extent to which negative parenting styles are linked to increased likelihood of abnormal psychological functioning in young people and the likelihood of negative parenting by one parent being replicated by another. The sample consisted of 391 secondary school students (13-15 years old) who completed questionnaires during PSHE lessons. Findings suggest that negative parenting styles are significantly correlated with raised scores on the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire, and that particularly negative parenting styles in one parent are likely to be found in the other. |
