“…Interestingly, we also found that some individuals who had depressive symptoms before social isolation, indicated that their depressive symptoms decreased, which could have been influenced by the activities that individuals carry out day by day. Some hypotheses talk about how individuals with depression can react in both negative and positive ways when faced to social distancing (28)(29)(30)(31). Which opens a study area on the effects of social distancing and how it could influence individuals who already had depression.…”

Introduction: Social isolation due to the COVID-19 pandemic has been identified as a risk factor of several mental disorders. Therefore, the present work aimed to evaluate the effect of social isolation experienced during the COVID-19 pandemic on the mental health of a Mexican population.Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional online survey was conducted in individuals of 18 years of age and over. The questioner was structured to identify onset or worsening of psychiatric symptoms due to social isolation by COVID-19. The survey included changes in eating habits, changes in personal hygiene habits, the starting the use or increased the use of psychoactive substances, symptoms of depression or post-traumatic stress.Results: A total of 1,011 individuals were included in the analysis. The majority were women (68.84%). Changes in eating habits were reported in 38.51% of the participants, 67.80% reported having their physical self-perception distorted or having started a low-calorie diet. Regarding symptoms of depression, 46.10% participants indicated to have at least one depressive symptom, and 4.46% reported suicidal ideation during social isolation. Interestingly, 6.09% of individuals reported that they used to have depressive symptoms prior the COVID-19 pandemic and those symptoms decreased due to social isolation. Additionally, 2.27% of individuals presented symptoms of post-traumatic stress due to the possibility of getting COVID-19.Conclusions: In this work we identified how social isolation has impacted the mental health of the Mexican population. We observed that practically all the symptoms evaluated were affected during isolation, such as personal hygiene and eating habits. Depression and suicidal ideation were the ones that increased the most in the general population, while in individuals who had symptoms of depression before isolation, these symptoms decreased during social isolation.

“…By prompting parents or children to respond to short surveys several times a day for several consecutive days, researchers are able to gain new understanding of how day‐to‐day variability in parenting is related to day‐to‐day variability in children's emotional and behavioral functioning (Li & Lansford, 2018). These mobile technologies are better able than more traditional longitudinal studies with assessment points separated by months or years to capture development as it unfolds in real time (Rothenberg et al., 2019). Advances in neuroimaging also provide opportunities to understand parenting in new ways, in this case in terms of how parenting – particularly abusive parenting – is related to brain structure and function (e.g.…”

This article reviews contemporary research on cross-cultural similarities and differences in parenting. The article begins by providing a definition of culture and how both parenting and culture can change over historical time. The article then presents some classic theoretical frameworks for understanding culture and parenting before considering why parenting may be similar across cultures and why parenting may be different across cultures. The article next turns to a review of cross-cultural similarities and differences in several aspects of parenting, including physical caregiving, cognitive stimulation, warmth and acceptance, control and monitoring, and discipline. Cultural normativeness and beliefs on the legitimacy of parental authority are then considered as potential moderators that contribute to cross-cultural similarities and differences in relations between parenting and child outcomes. The article then considers implications for parenting interventions and laws and policies related to parenting. Finally, the article suggests directions for future research.

“…However, in both studies, three results emerged in contrast with our hypotheses: (1) a positive correlation among supportive PES strategies and youths’ negative emotion dysregulation, (2) a positive correlation among supportive and unsupportive PES strategies, and (3) a positive correlation among youths’ adaptive emotion regulation and emotion dysregulation. Those findings are limited and preliminary, however, a common lens to provide a potential explanation for the first two of the aforementioned weak‐to‐moderate correlations may be a stronger effect of child externalizing and internalizing behavior problems predicting negative parenting (and low positive parenting), than of parenting affecting subsequent child behaviors (Lansford et al., 2018 ; Rothenberg et al., 2019 ). Specifically, since the pandemic started, an overall scenario characterized by a worsening in child problematic behaviors, as well as the forced increased likelihood for all family members to be in the same home space due to quarantine, lockdown, and online education, could have been associated with an increase in the number of times in which parents had to deal with their children’s behaviors of all kinds, including negative emotional reactions.…”

“…Parental responses were recorded on a 5‐point Likert scale (from 0 “Not at all” to 5 “a lot”). In particular, based on a previous validation study (Rothenberg et al., 2019 ), from the 36 items of the original version of the DERS, 10 items that better represented the construct of emotion (dys)regulation (with the highest factorial loadings per sub‐scale reported in Gratz & Roemer, 2004 ) were selected and adjusted for the aforementioned specific negative emotion. For the purpose of this study, six items were included for negative emotions’ adaptive regulation (e.g.…”

This study examines the change and associations in parental emotion socialization strategies in response to children’s negative emotions and youths’ adjustment, comparing before the Covid‐19 pandemic hit Italy and since the pandemic began. Participants were convenient cross‐sectional/normative (Study 1) and clinical/longitudinal (Study 2) samples of Italian parents whose children were in middle childhood and adolescence. In Study 1, self‐reported socialization strategies, youths’ maladjustment, and emotion dysregulation increased since the pandemic began. Whereas, in Study 2, socialization strategies and youths’ maladjustment decreased since the pandemic started. In both studies, unsupportive parental emotion socialization predicted youths’ maladjustment and emotion dysregulation, while supportive parental emotion socialization predicted adaptive emotion regulation. This study advances knowledge about the impact of the Covid‐19 pandemic on the family context.
