“…A growing literature in the general population shows that autonomy-supportive and controlling parenting behavior relate differentially to children's adjustment. Whereas autonomy support enhances children's well-being and psychological development (Grolnick et al 2018;Joussemet et al 2008), controlling parenting diminishes children's healthy development and increases their risk to develop problem behavior (Barber et al 2005;Costa et al 2016). Among children with ASD, recent studies have confirmed that controlling parenting also negatively impacts child development (Bader and Barry 2014;Dieleman et al 2017).…”

This study aimed to gain more insight in the sources of daily parenting among mothers of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Specifically, we examined associations between daily variations in child behavior, mothers' psychological needs, and mothers' controlling and autonomy-supportive parenting. Moreover, the study examined the potential mediating role of daily vitality and stress within these associations. In total 41 mothers (M = 41.84 years) of children with ASD (M = 10.92 years, range 7-15) participated in a 7-day diary study. Multilevel structural equation modeling revealed that both daily child behavior (i.e., externalizing problems and prosocial behavior) and mothers' psychological needs relate to day-to-day variation in parenting behavior. Daily stress and vitality played an intervening role in most of these associations.

“…Por último, los progenitores que apoyan la autonomía potencian que sus hijos e hijas se responsabilicen de la gestión y ejecución de sus tareas cotidianas, tanto domésticas como escolares, y promueven que resuelvan por cuenta propia sus conflictos personales, aportándoles, si así lo solicitan, soporte y guía (Grolnick et al, 2018). A este respecto, resulta de capital importancia que, huyendo de la exigencia de perfección , los progenitores manifiesten estima hacia los esfuerzos efectuados por sus hijos e hijas, así como hacia los logros alcanzados, haciendo que tomen conciencia de esos esfuerzos y esos logros, y los valoren.…”

Este trabajo tiene como objetivo explorar el discurso de los estudiantes de 6 a 8 años de edad cuando reflexionan sobre las dinámicas de educación empleadas por sus progenitores. Para ello, partimos de la teoría de la autodeterminación y reflexionamos sobre las prácticas de apoyo a la autonomía y de control parental presentes en el discurso de los menores. En este sentido, comprobamos que el discurso de los estudiantes gira, principalmente, en torno a prácticas parentales de apoyo a la autonomía como la posibilidad de elección de actividades de ocio, la comunicación de problemas y preocupaciones a los progenitores y el desempeño autónomo de algunas tareas por parte de los menores. Sin embargo, también hay evidencias de que las prácticas de apoyo a la autonomía convergen con otras relacionadas con el control parental en determinadas situaciones.

“…Expectations of success may also play a significant role as an intangible identity capital component. These expectations broadly refer to beliefs concerning how one will perform and what one will achieve in certain life domains [33][34]40,42,69 . The confidence that one will achieve certain results that are significant to the acquisition of an adult status could be a significant predictor of adult identity resolution 35 .…”

In contemporary Western individualized societies, both positive psychology and identity capital theory have identified a set of psychosocial assets indispensable for the negotiation of opportunities and risks inherent to the process of transition to adulthood. From among the various identity capital resources, this study focuses on agentic capacities, as one of the most valuable due to their motivational power, and school trajectories, as a powerful structural determinant of transition to adulthood trajectories. In order to better understand the anticipation of adult roles, two studies were carried out aiming to (1) observe differences in agentic capacities (measured by their levels of self-efficacy beliefs, expectations of success concerning the performance of adult roles, and exploration of worldviews and adult roles) and adult identity resolution according to the youths’ level of education; (2) assess the predictive power of youths’ agentic capacities in adult identity resolution, examining possible variations according to the level of education. Differences according to level of education were found regarding identity resolution with less educated youths evidencing higher levels of adult identity resolution. As far as the predictive power of agentic capacities over identity resolution is concerned, it was observed that the type and amount of identity capital that is relevant for the acquisition of a sense of adult maturity varies according to educational level of emerging adults.
