The role of parental styles the socio-emotional competence of children at the beginning of school years

Abstract

The present study aims at investigating the relationship settled between the parental style practised by the parent and the modality of behavioural response of the child expressed at the level of social and emotional competences in different situations, as well as the implications of this type of relationship over the social and emotional development of the child at the beginning of school years. The pilot study represents a validation of the direction of research toward which we aim at, that is to approach the problematics of the practised parental style in relation to different behavioural types practised during childhood expressed at the level of social and emotional competences.
