“…This process is typical of autonomy supportive parenting [57], as well as of authoritative parenting [44], in which rules are discussed and shared with children, stimulating their critical thinking and problem solving and providing them an opportunity of growth. Empirical studies focusing on parenting styles have indeed demonstrated immediate and long-term protective effects of the authoritative style for adolescent development [43,55].…”

“…We may hypothesize, in fact, that these restrictive parental behaviors can be protective if and when they are combined with different parental practices, such as the promotion of an open communication with children regarding their life (and not only the virtual one). The ability to balance communication and control can be ascribed to authoritative parental practices, that the literature has demonstrated to widely and positively impact on adolescent development [43,55].…”

Background Sexting has recently emerged as a public health and social issue. The present study had two aims: a) to preliminarily test adolescent gender differences on parental practices regarding adolescent online life, parental monitoring, adolescent attitude towards sexting and sexting behaviors; b) to separately test for male and female adolescents a conceptual model in which sexting behaviors are explained by the parental practices and monitoring, with the mediation of adolescent negative attitude towards sexting. Methods Direct and indirect links between the variables in the model were investigated. The study was carried out with 541 participants. Participants were Italian adolescents (60% males; 40% females) aged 14 to 19 years (Mage = 16,19 years, SDage = 1,31). Results Results suggested that females sent more multimedia sexts, had a higher perception of risk associated with sexting and reported higher scores for both parental practices regarding adolescent online life and parental monitoring. Rules on Contents, Parental Knowledge, Adolescent Disclosure, and Parental Control resulted to be linked to both sexting attitudes and behaviors for male and female adolescents. Conclusions Findings emphasize the important role that parents play in shaping attitudes and behaviors of both daughters and sons during adolescence.

“…A second possibility is that parenting exerts an indirect effect on the child by creating parental cognitions like parenting self‐efficacy, that the child then models. Whereas the pathway running from positive parenting, to child self‐efficacy, to child delinquency (Juang & Silbereisen, 1999; Olivari, Cucci, Bonanomi, Tagliabue, & Confalonieri, 2018; Walters, 2018) is well‐documented, there may be more to this relationship than meets the eye. This is because there is no meaningful theoretical rationale upon which to base the argument that positive parenting leads directly to child self‐efficacy.…”

Introduction: This study's purpose was to investigate the mediating effect of parental control selfeficacy on the parental warmth → child delinquency relationship in the mothers and fathers of early to mid-adolescent youth in a test of performance accomplishments as a prelude to parental self-eficacy. Methods: Parental warmth and control self-eficacy estimates, representing parental support and control, respectively, were provided by the mothers and fathers of 3934 (2010 boys, 1924 girls) youth from the Longitudinal Study of Australian Children (LSAC) and self-reported delinquency was obtained from the child. Results: As predicted, parental control self-eficacy mediated the relationship between parental warmth and child delinquency, whereas parental warmth did not mediate the relationship between parental self-eficacy and child delinquency. When analyses were performed separately for boys and girls, the father warmth → father self-eficacy → child delinquency pathway achieved the most consistent results in boys and the mother warmth → mother self-eficacy → child delinquency pathway achieved the only signiicant effect in girls. Conclusions: These results suggest that performance accomplishments, as characterized by a warm parent-child relationship, led to enhanced parental control self-eficacy, which, in turn, served to inhibit future delinquency in the child, thereby lending credence to a social cognitive learning theory interpretation of the parental support-control interface.Parental control and support have been found to predict reduced levels of future delinquent behavior in the offspring of these parents (Hoeve et al., 2009). The mechanism of effect, however, is uncertain and a matter of conjecture for researchers, clinicians, and policy makers. It is possible that positive parenting directly affects the child by buffering them from negative peer and neighborhood inluences or by teaching them basic social, coping, and problem-solving skills. A second possibility is that parenting exerts an indirect effect on the child by creating parental cognitions like parenting self-eficacy, that the child then models. Whereas the pathway running from positive parenting, to child self-eficacy, to child delinquency (Juang & Silbereisen, 1999;Olivari, Cucci, Bonanomi, Tagliabue, & Confalonieri, 2018;Walters, 2018) is well-documented, there may be more to this relationship than meets the eye. This is because there is no meaningful theoretical rationale upon which to base the argument that positive parenting leads directly to child self-eficacy. The two most prominent sources of self-eficacy are modeling and performance accomplishments (Bandura, 1986). One or both may be capable of clarifying the a path (positive parenting to child self-eficacy) of the positive parenting → child self-eficacy

“…Gross defines emotion regulation as a mechanism that influences the way people experience or express their emotions (Fletcher, Parker, Bayes, Paterson, & McClure, 2014). In this developmental stage, adolescents frequently go through new and intense emotional experiences with peers and romantic partners that need to be regulated (Olivari, Cuccì, Bonanomi, Tagliabue, & Confalonieri, 2018). Emotion regulation diffi culties resulting from impulse management difficulties and limited access to emotion regulation strategies showed the strongest relationship with BPD (Lotfi et al, 2014;Lotfi, Amini, Fathi, Karami, Ghiasi, & Sadeghi, 2018).…”

The present study aimed to predict borderline personality traits in adolescents based on parenting styles and emotion regulation strategies. Methods: This research was a cross-sectional study. The statistical population included all female high school students in Sanandaj City, Iran in the academic year 2016-17. Out of them, a total of 261 students were selected as the study sample using a random multistage cluster sampling method. The following instruments were used to gather the study data: the schizotypal trait questionnaire-B, the emotion regulation questionnaire, and the parenting styles inventory. The study data were analyzed using multiple regression analysis and the Pearson correlation coefficient. Results: According to the findings, authoritarian and authoritative parenting styles significantly predicted borderline personality total score and its components (P<0.01). But, in this model, permissive parenting was not a significant predictor (P>0.01). In addition, the results indicated that both emotion regulation strategies of reappraisal and suppression significantly predicted borderline personality total score and its components (P<0.05). Conclusion: According to the study results, parenting styles and emotion regulation strategies could be regarded as important variables in predicting borderline personality symptoms, and they should be targeted in therapeutic interventions to reduce borderline personality symptoms.
