Impact Factors for Children's Self-control

Abstract

This study delves into the vital psychological attribute of self-control and its profound effects on children, focusing on two pivotal determinants: family environment and educational milieu. Self-control, the capacity to independently govern behaviour, emotions, and decision-making toward long-term objectives, is paramount for personal development and triumph. The family environment, encapsulating facets such as family structure and support, is pivotal in shaping a child's self-control. Factors like socioeconomic adversity and parenting styles(PS) are crucial influencers in moulding self-regulation(SR). Simultaneously, the educational setting, categorized into diverse self-managing aspects, exhibits a discernible impact on overall educational quality. Autonomy support(AS) and structured parenting positively affect children's self-regulation and academic achievements. The study underscores the interdependence between family and educational environments, advocating for targeted interventions and innovative strategies to advance children's self-control. It concludes by proposing avenues for future research to refine further interventions and strategies to foster children's self-control.
