Authoritative Parenting Research Articles

Children, juveniles, and crime in early modern London: Old Bailey trials, 1674–1750

Abstract This article uses the early records of the Old Bailey to examine how the court handled cases involving children and juveniles, whether as offenders, victims or witnesses. It argues that though juvenile courts belong to a later age, the early modern court was already applying different criteria in trying young offenders. It demonstrates how juries used age, gender and related considerations to justify the ‘pious perjury’ that sheltered many from the full rigour of the law. Previous work on children as victims has focused on child-rape and infanticide. This article explores other categories. It argues that in cases of death following a severe beating the court's sympathies lay firmly with the defendants, determined to uphold the authority of employers and parents. Lastly, the article explores cases involving children as witnesses, which raised difficult questions about the admissibility of evidence. Judges had to decide if the youngster was sufficiently mature to give evidence on oath.

Perceptions of Relationships with Kinship Caregivers Among Parents Following State-Detected Psychoactive Substance Use

SYNOPSIS Objective. This study sought to better understand parent relationships with kinship caregivers, with an eye toward parents’ perceptions of how kinship caregiver mindsets and behaviors surrounding substance use may have impacted parents. Design. Data came from transcripts of in-depth, semi-structured interviews with 16 parents in the United States, who had substantiated child welfare cases related to substance use. Transcripts were dual-coded, and analysis was guided by the reflexive thematic analysis framework. Results. Parents described two different experiences with kinship caregivers. For some families, parents reported fragmentation of their support system; parents described caregivers as undermining their parental authority, disrupting attachment bonds, and communicating with children in ways that perpetuated stigma around substance use. Other parents reported increased cohesion among family members; parents described caregivers as supportive and empowering, particularly as they navigated mandated “recovery.” Conclusions. Findings offer insights to help inform decision-making by both practitioners and policymakers by giving a voice to parents as they navigate the complex systems of child welfare services and drug court programming.

Authoritative Parenting Style and Social-Emotional Development of Pre-Primary Learners: A Case of Lurambi Sub-Kakamega County, Kenya

Parenting is crucial to a child's growth and development since so much of what they learn in their formative years hinges on the strength of their relationships with their parents. The purpose of the study was to determine the effects of authoritative parenting styles on social emotional development of pre-primary learners. The study adopted Baumrind's theory on parenting styles and used descriptive survey research design. The target population was 6,848 pre-primary learners, 264 ECD teachers, and 6,526 parents in Lurambi Sub-County-Kenya. Simple random and purposive sampling techniques helped to obtain sample size of 400 pre-primary learners, 26 ECD teachers and 20 ECD parents from 19 pre-schools. The interview schedule, questionnaire and focus group discussions were used to generate data for the study. The regression analysis indicated that authoritative parenting style had a statistically significant effect in predicting social emotional development of pre-primary learners as indicated by R2 =.206 (20.6%); F(1,18), = 4.661, B= .541, t=2.159, p<0.045. The study concluded that most children had active conversation with their parents, the study also concluded that most children were given token by their parents before doing task, the study also most parents made demands from their children.

Parenting Styles, Savings Attitudes, and Propensity to Save Among Children in Singapore

This study investigates the association between parenting styles, savings attitudes, and the propensity to save among 62 children aged 10 to 15 years who had participated in a matched savings program in Singapore and 25 children who served as a comparison group. Results revealed that savings attitudes and parenting styles were positively associated with the propensity to save. Specifically, older age, perceiving saving as a good thing to do, reliance on parental guidance for saving, and authoritative and authoritarian parenting styles were significantly associated with a higher propensity to save. In contrast, perceiving saving as a struggle and permissive parenting was inversely associated with the propensity to save. Increased authoritative and authoritarian parenting scores predicted children’s propensity to save. Implications of involving children as active agents in saving and parental involvement in matched savings programs are discussed.

Relationships between perceived parenting styles and the self-regulated music practice of Chinese music majors

Parents influence their children’s music learning and practice. This study examines relationships between perceived parenting styles and the self-regulated music practice of Chinese university students majoring in music. A survey was administered to Chinese music majors ( N = 880) studying in mainland China. It examined relationships between the parenting styles participants perceived themselves to have experienced, authoritative and authoritarian, and the six dimensions of self-regulated music practice: motivation, method, behavior, social factors, physical environment, and time. The results suggest that both authoritative and authoritarian parenting styles are positively associated with most dimensions of self-regulated music practice, with authoritative parenting showing a more beneficial effect on learners’ self-regulated music practice. All paths from perceived parenting styles and self-regulated music practice were found to be structurally invariant across gender. The findings contribute to a better understanding of parental influence on the self-regulated practice of Chinese music majors. The limitations of the study and possible future research directions are discussed at the end of the article.

Paediatric Nurses' Personal Accounts of Being Told Not to Disclose Information to Children With Serious Illness-An Interpretative Phenomenological Study.

To explore the experiences, and perceptions of nurses who are told to withhold clinical information from children diagnosed with serious illnesses. An interpretative qualitative phenomenological design was used for the study. Sampling was purposive and data were collected using semi-structured interviews from nurses working in a paediatric setting within the preceding 5 years. Nurse-participants described their personal experiences of withholding situations ('non-disclosure directives'). Their accounts of specific examples of situations ('personal accounts') were extracted from the interview transcripts and analysed using inductive content analysis to identify patterns and concepts within the descriptions. Data management was supported using Dedoose. Nurse-participants were interviewed face-to face and online between November 2019 and December 2020. Twenty-six Australian nurses who have cared for seriously ill children within the preceding 5 years participated in the study. Thirty-nine accounts of non-disclosure situations (personal accounts) were extracted from interview transcripts. Four types of non-disclosure were identified in the personal accounts: withholding information, temporary withholding, lying and combined withholding/lying. The inductive content analysis identified three key aspects of nurse-participants' accounts: beliefs and perceptions (about the child and parents), the nature of the experience and feelings about the experience. Moral distress occurred when nurses' actions conflicted with their moral values in response to a non-disclosure directive, particularly when asked to directly lie to children. Nurses felt disempowered by the parent's authority and the institutional hierarchy that limited their ability to participate in discussions where a non-disclosure directive was given. Nurse-participants were afforded a platform for reflection which proved valuable in allowing them to process their experiences in a non-disclosure situation. Nurses directed to withhold medical information from children should be afforded opportunities for reflection to mitigate moral distress. Nurses should be included in the planning of ethically appropriate responses to withholding directives.

Contribution Of Parental And Teachers' Guidance Towards Independent Behavior Of Elementary School Children

The contribution of parental and teacher guidance to the independent behavior of elementary school children needs to be considered carefully. Although this guidance plays an important role in child development, overprotective attitudes, lack of consistency, and the influence of the social and technological environment can hinder children's independence. This study uses the library research method. The data collection technique in this study was carried out through documentation review or document review. To ensure the validity of the data in this study, the source triangulation technique was used. The results of the study showed that 1). The Role of Parents in Shaping the Independence of Elementary School Children is to play an important role in shaping children's independence, with democratic parenting patterns proven to be more effective in encouraging independence than authoritarian or permissive parenting patterns. 2). The Role of Teachers in Developing the Independence of Elementary School Children is to develop student independence through a teaching approach that encourages responsibility and active participation. By giving individual and group assignments, and involving students in projects and class discussions, teachers help students learn independently. 3). Collaboration of Parents and Teachers in Developing Independence of Elementary School Children is that parents and teachers play an important role in supporting the development of independence of elementary school children. Open communication and good cooperation between the two parties ensure that children receive consistent guidance, both at home and at school.

Opt-out vaccination in school and daycare: Reconciling parental authority and obligations.

An increasing vaccine hesitancy among parents, which has resulted in insufficient rates of immunization, provides reason to reconsider childhood vaccination practices. Studies suggest that parents' decision-making process concerning whether to vaccinate their child is highly influenced by cognitive biases. These biases can be utilized to increase vaccination uptake via changes in the choice context. This article considers childhood vaccination programmes, which involve children being vaccinated in school or daycare unless their parents actively 'opt out'. We suggest that such programmes reconcile parents' decisional authority and vaccination duties. First, opt-out childhood vaccination based in schools or daycare centres are not disrespectful of parental authority. Second, the programme aligns the default setting with a moral obligation to vaccinate one's child that most parents have.

Gambaran Pengasuhan Orang Tua di Suku Nias

Parents are the primary and first educators of children within a family. In the process of emotional adjustment for children, this cannot be separated from family support. Communication is the key to relationships within a family. The parenting style of the Nias ethnic group has its own uniqueness influenced by local culture and values. According to Vinden (2001), there are two parenting styles: authoritarian and authoritative. This study aims to describe the parenting practices of the Nias ethnic group. The research employs a quantitative method using descriptive statistical analysis. The population for this study consists of parents in the Nias ethnic group, with a total of 60 subjects. The sampling technique used is purposive sampling. This study utilizes the parenting style scale developed by Vinden, which has been modified by O'Reily and Peterson (2014) and adapted into Indonesian by Hasanah and Rusli (2020). Based on the research results, the mean for authoritarian parenting style is 18.9 with a standard deviation of 1.50, while the mean for authoritative parenting style is 10.3 with a standard deviation of 1.84. This indicates that the authoritarian parenting style among parents in the Nias ethnic group is higher.

The Influence of Parenting Styles on the Early Childhood Development at Tkk Kasih Mulia Cimahi

Early childhood development is a crucial period in the formation of a child's physical, cognitive, and emotional growth. Parental upbringing plays a significant role in supporting a child's development during this phase.** This study aims to analyze the influence of parenting styles on the early childhood development at Taman Kanak-Kanak (TKK) Kasih Mulia Cimahi. The background of this research is based on the fact that many parents do not fully understand how the parenting styles they adopt affect their child's development, especially during the early years, which are critical for the growth of various aspects of a child's development. The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between different types of parenting styles—authoritative, authoritarian, permissive, and neglectful—and their effects on the physical, social, emotional, and cognitive development of children. A quantitative method with a survey approach was employed for this research. Data were collected through questionnaires distributed to 50 parents whose children attend TKK Kasih Mulia Cimahi, along with direct observation of the children's development. The data analysis technique used was regression analysis to determine the influence of parenting styles on various aspects of child development. The results showed that the authoritative parenting style had the most positive impact on all aspects of child development, particularly in social and cognitive growth. Conversely, authoritarian and permissive parenting styles tended to have negative effects, especially in the emotional and social development of the children. Neglectful parenting had the most detrimental effect on the physical and emotional development of the children. The conclusion of this study is that parental upbringing significantly influences early childhood development. Parents who adopt an authoritative parenting style are more likely to have children who grow and develop optimally. The recommendation is for parents to better understand the importance of applying balanced parenting, such as the authoritative style, which can holistically support a child's development. Additionally, schools are encouraged to provide education to parents on the importance of parenting in supporting early childhood development.

Anxiety is one of the variables that affect a person's mental health. Also, there is a connection between parenting styles and mental health during adolescence. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between perceived parenting styles and anxiety of adolescents in Isfahan (Iran). This descriptive-analytical study was conducted with the participation of 197 teenagers in the age group of 12–18 years in Isfahan, Iran. The participants were selected by cluster random sampling. The Parenting Styles Questionnaire (PSQ) and March Children's Anxiety Questionnaire were used to collect information. Data were analyzed using descriptive and analytical statistics through SPSS 26. The mean and standard deviation of anxiety in adolescents were 45.96 and 16.51, respectively (at a low level). The participants evaluated their parenting style in order as permissive (32%), authoritative (24.9%), neglectful (21.8%), and authoritarian (21.3%). A significant difference was observed between the anxiety level of adolescents and their parenting style (p < 0.001). In this way, the highest anxiety was related to the children of permissive parents, and the most minor anxiety was associated with the authoritarian parents (p < 0.001). The findings of this research indicate that there is a significant difference between the perceived parenting styles in terms of the level of children's anxiety. Therefore, considering the importance of parenting styles on children's psychological characteristics, It is recommended to educate parents about the importance of their parenting style on their children's health.

The relationship between intimate partner violence and parenting styles with mediated attachment styles in Iranian women

PurposeThe primary aim of this study was to investigate the role of attachment styles as intermediaries in the relationship between intimate partner violence (IPV) and parenting styles among Iranian women.MethodsData for this study was collected between September and December 2020. The participants consisted of 102 women who had been referred to Social Emergency Centers in Isfahan due to their experiences with domestic violence. Participants filled out the Haj-Yahia Violence Questionnaire, Baumrind Parenting Styles Questionnaire (BPSQ), and the Attachment Styles Questionnaire (AAQ). To examine the hypothesized relationships, Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) was used.ResultsEconomic IPV victimization was negatively related to secure attachment (β = − 0.309, p = 0.019) and positively related with authoritative parenting (β = 0.422, p = 0.019) and avoidant attachment style (β = 0.563, p = 0.000). There was a significant, positive relationship between sexual IPV victimization with secure and avoidant attachment styles (β = 0.351, p = 0.011; β = 0.407, p = 0.000). Authoritative parenting style was related to avoidant attachment (β = − 0.524, p = 0.015) and secure attachment (β = 0.371, p = 0.000).ConclusionsIranian IPV victims with secure attachment style were more likely to utilize authoritative parenting and those who have avoidant attachment were less likely to use authoritative parenting. Attachment styles may influence the relationship between IPV and parenting styles in Iranian women who have experienced IPV.

Girls were reported to be higher in social anxiety as compared to boys.

Navigating parental disagreement: ethical analysis and a proposed approach.

Shared decision-making in pediatrics can be problematic when disagreements arise. The impermissible-permissible-obligatory (I-P-O) framework helps define the limits of parental authority when clinicians disagree with parents. There is little guidance in the literature, however, on making critical clinical decisions when parents disagree with each other. We use a clinical case involving parental disagreement over resuscitation at borderline gestational age to provide context for an analysis of several potential approaches based on established ethical principles of pediatric decision-making. We identify four potential options for delivery room care: (1) Defer to the pregnant parent; (2) withhold resuscitation unless both parents agree to it; (3) attempt resuscitation if either parent requests it; (4) decide about resuscitation using a framework of advisability. The merits and flaws of each approach are discussed. We propose an expansion of the I-P-O framework that uses consideration of clinical details, an assessment of the patient's best interest, and parental values to determine clinical advisability to guide decision-making in the setting of parental discordance.
