Bidirectional Relations Between Parenting and Behavior Problems From Age 8 to 13 in Nine Countries
Abstract
© 2018 Society for Research on Adolescence This study used data from 12 cultural groups
in nine countries (China, Colombia, Italy, Jordan, Kenya, Philippines, Sweden, Thailand,
and the United States; N = 1,298) to understand the cross-cultural generalizability
of how parental warmth and control are bidirectionally related to externalizing and
internalizing behaviors from childhood to early adolescence. Mothers, fathers, and
children completed measures when children were ages 8–13. Multiple-group autoregressive,
cross-lagged structural equation models revealed that child effects rather than parent
effects may better characterize how warmth and control are related to child externalizing
and internalizing behaviors over time, and that parent effects may be more characteristic
of relations between parental warmth and control and child externalizing and internalizing
behavior during childhood than early adolescence.
