Children's use of the Internet comes with both risks and opportunities. To minimize risks and maximize opportunities, parents may choose to observe, enable, and/or restrict their children's Internet use. However, parents' high confidence in their children's online safety can itself be a risk factor inhibiting parental awareness of online risks.…

Digital parenting refers to the parenting practices that maximize the benefits and minimize potential risks of children's interactions with digital media and online spaces. Balancing the pros and cons of early digital usage is a challenge for many caregivers. This scoping review synthesizes evidence regarding digital parenting practices and their…

This paper presents causal evidence on the impact of parenting practices on early child development. We exploit exogenous changes in nurturing care induced by a parent training intervention to estimate the impact of nurturing parenting practices on child outcomes. We find a large and significant impact measured at age two; in contrast, at age four…

This study examines the mediating effects of parental attributions of children's academic failures in the relationship between maternal failure mind-sets and their parenting styles. Participants were 323 preschool children aged 4-6 years old, with their mothers completing online questionnaires on failure mind-sets, parenting styles, and…

In this study, the concept of social media parenting (SMP) was defined and a scale was developed to measure parents' perceptions of SMP. Although SMP is referred to as "sharenting" in the literature, given that it has a much broader definition, an attempt was made to define it as a new concept that includes the concept of sharenting. The…

Prior research points to the promotion of parenting self-efficacy (PSE) as an important component of parenting interventions; however, few studies have tested PSE as a mediator or moderator of the effects of parenting programs on child behavior. In the current study, we examined the efficacy of the Family Check-Up (FCU), a brief, strengths-based…

This quantitative research investigates the influence of parenting styles on students' attitudes toward learning English, including the descriptions of parenting styles and student attitudes toward learning English. The study involved 146 students from public middle schools in Airmadidi District, North Minahasa Regency, selected based on…

To understand whose parenting (mothers vs. fathers) and which type of parenting (warmth vs. hostility) is more important in predicting adolescent aggression, this study applied dominance analysis to evaluate the relative importance of four different parenting dimensions (maternal hostility, paternal hostility, maternal warmth, and paternal…

Children inevitably start using smart devices from the first year of their lives. Parents should have knowledge and awareness of the conscious use of applications on smart devices. For this reason, a scale to measure parents' knowledge and awareness of the conscious use of applications on smart devices has become necessary. Due to this necessity,…

Racial discrimination is a salient and chronic stressor for ethnic minority parents that can negatively impact their parenting. The present study used a short-term longitudinal design to examine the link between Chinese American mothers' stressful experiences of racial discrimination and their authoritarian parenting practices, the mediating role…

"Research Findings:" Playfulness is an important personality tendency with an important role in the well-being, mental health, and various other aspects of an individual's life. Previous studies have shown that the development of children's playfulness is related to parents' playfulness. However, limited research has been conducted on…

Parents are considered a major resource in children's numeracy development. The relative role of cognitive and motivational parenting practices, however, is unclear given that the two types of practices have largely been studied in isolation. The current study simultaneously estimated the contributions of several cognitive and motivational…

The authors examined task-based (i.e., executive function), surveyed (i.e., effortful control), and physiological (i.e., resting cardiac respiratory sinus arrhythmia [RSA]) measures of child and maternal regulation as distinct moderators of longitudinal bidirectional links between child externalizing (EXT) behaviors and harsh parenting (HP) from 6…

The component model of human parenting has been extensively used to study parents' interactions with their offspring and to examine variation across cultural contexts. The current study applies this model to nonhuman primates to investigate which forms of parenting humans share with other primates and how these interactions change over infants'…

Screens have become increasingly prevalent in children's lives. This study examined the longitudinal association between screen time and aggressive behaviour by investigating the mediating and moderating roles of language ability and parenting stress, respectively. The analysed data consisted of 1,319 children, aged 5 to 15, from the Fragile…
