“…On the other hand, peer pressure and economic factors such as poverty can contribute to the development of delinquent behavior. Finally, the family environment, which includes structure, parental behaviors, attachment patterns, and economic conditions, is critical in shaping the emergence of delinquent behaviors [1,2].…”

“…Since, Yue did a lot of research in China based on the EMBU scale and adapted the EMBU scale to the actual situation in China, many Chinese scholars have also adopted their modified scales, and all of these studies have confirmed that their scales have good reliability and validity [32]. Though favoritism has been identified to be culture-specific, cross-cultural stability of the EMBU based on data from Chinese subjects is satisfactory [33,34]. Cronbach's alpha for the EMBU in the current study was 0.94.…”

Background Even though a fair amount of studies focus on depression among college students, the effect of perceived parenting styles on the incidence of major depressive disorder (MDD) among representative freshmen in Chinese context is scarcely studied. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of parenting styles on MDD in Chinese freshmen. Methods A total of 9,928 Chinese freshmen were recruited in 2018. 6985 valid questionnaires were collected at one-year follow-up. Composite International Diagnostic Interview 3.0 (CIDI-3.0) was used for the diagnosis of MDD. Egna Minnen Beträffande Uppfostran (EMBU) questionnaire and Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II) were used to assess parenting styles and baseline depressive symptoms, respectively. The associations between parenting styles and MDD incidence was analyzed with logistic regression. Results The incidence of MDD in freshmen was 2.23% (95%CI: 1.91-2.60%). Maternal overprotection (OR = 1.03, 95%CI: 1.01–1.05) and disharmony relationship between parents (OR = 2.35, 95% CI: 1.42–3.89) increased the risk of new-onset MDD in freshmen, respectively. Mild depressive symptoms (OR = 2.06, 95%CI: 1.06–4.02), moderate (OR = 4.64, 95%CI: 2.55–8.44) and severe depressive symptoms (OR = 7.46, 95%CI: 2.71–20.52) at baseline increased the risk of new-onset MDD. Conclusions Maternal overprotection, disharmony relationship between parents and baseline depressive symptoms are risk factors for new-onset MDD in Chinese freshmen.

The family is influential in children’s development and socialisation. Through the lens of social learning, this article explores how the socialisation of boys within families influences or prevents risk-taking behaviours at school. Employing a qualitative research approach, data were generated through semi-structured face-to-face interviews with open-ended questions contained in an interview guide. These were subsequently analysed thematically. Through purposive sampling, three themes emerged from participants’ narratives. Themes reflect risk factors such as family structure on participants’ discipline and emotional regulation, the value of nurturing family relationships, and the family role in positive socialisation. Significantly, the role of fathers and father absence resonated across the three themes. Recommendations for social work practice centre on parenting programmes specially focused on positive parenting for both parents—especially fathers—and closer collaboration with school social workers.
