I hypothesized that peers' and adolescents' behavioral problems, as well as parental beliefs and parenting styles, are important determinants of when and how parents manage their adolescents' peer relationships. In addition, I postulated that the impact of parents' management varies with the type of strategies parents employ. Questionnaire ratings were gathered from 153 adolescents (aged 14 to 17) and their parents. Consistent with the predictions, parents intervened more and used restrictive strategies more often when either peers or adolescents had more severe behavioral problems. Parents' beliefs about management were also associated with their management decisions and behaviors. Parents who were highly confident in their effectiveness and who strongly believed that it is their responsibility to intervene tended to intervene more often using both proactive and restrictive strategies. Different parenting styles were differentially associated with parents' management strategies. Authoritarian parenting was associated with an increased likelihood of intervention using both proactive and reactive strategies. Authoritative parenting, however, was associated with a decreased likelihood of intervening in peer relationships and with greater use of proactive strategies and less use of restrictive strategies. Similar to authoritative parenting, uninvolved parenting was also associated with a decreased likelihood of interventions; when uninvolved parents did intervene, however, they tended to use restrictive strategies more and proactive strategies less. Consistent with the predictions, different management strategies appeared to have different effects on adolescents' lives. Highly restrictive strategies were associated with heightened conflict in parent-adolescent relationships, increased closeness in adolescent-peer relationships, and increased behavioral problems for adolescents. In contrast, proactive strategies were related to increased closeness in parent-adolescent relationships and decreased behavioral problems among adolescents. Implications of the findings to parenting were discussed and directions for future studies were offered. Opini Anda Klik untuk menuliskan opini Anda tentang koleksi ini!
