“…This research also found that effective communication between parents and children positively impacts students' active learning and their level of discipline. The support provided by parents through positive communication and guidance motivates children to be more focused and disciplined in the learning process (Tuna, 2022;Yang et al, 2021). Apart from that, the role of parents in independent learning is vital.…”

“…The larger the family or significant others he has, the more decisions he makes, and therefore, the greater the influence of his perspective. Intense meetings between parents and children will impact the communication inherent in them (Meter et al, 2021;Yang et al, 2021). Not only attached children but communication must also be open to each other by showing honesty, trust, and mutual respect.…”

This research investigates parent-child interpersonal communication patterns in self-regulated learning (independent learning) of east Kalimantan state madrasah aliyah students. Learning independence is an essential skill in education that allows students to manage, organize, and supervise their learning process. This research uses a qualitative approach with interview and observation methods as data collection tools. Participants in this research were Madrasah Aliyah students in East Kalimantan and the students' parents. The collected data is then analyzed by paying attention to interpersonal communication patterns between parents and children during the learning process. The research results show that communication between children and parents plays a significant role in forming students' character and independent learning abilities. Open and honest communication influences children's confidence in their talents and interests. This also positively impacts students' active learning, discipline, and responsible attitude toward learning tasks and obligations. The role of parents in children's independent learning is evident in various aspects. The implication of this research is to provide recommendations for MAN East Kalimantan and related parties to increase the role of parents in supporting students' independent learning. It is hoped that the results of this research will provide an essential contribution to further understanding the relationship between parent-child interpersonal communication and students' independent learning abilities, which in turn can improve the quality of education at MAN East Kalimantan and similar educational institutions.

“…Recent empirical studies support the beneficial role of MP for parents, parent-child communication, and children. These benefits include higher levels of dispositional mindfulness in children (Moreira & Canavarro, 2018b) and parents (Ahemaitijiang et al, 2021;Kil et al, 2021;Orue et al, 2020;Shorey & Ng, 2021); less internalizing, externalizing, and attention problems in children (Emerson et al, 2021;Yang et al, 2021); positive parenting styles (McCaffrey et al, 2017;Moreira & Canavarro, 2017); reduced parental stress (Anand et al, 2021;Moreira & Canavarro, 2018a); and better child-parent relationships and communication (Coatsworth et al, 2018;Lippold et al, 2021;Shorey & Ng, 2021). Moreover, several intervention studies have documented an increase in MP following participation in an MP program, and they indicated that these changes in MP accounted for the reductions in child psychopathology, decreased emotional reactivity in parenting, and less parenting stress following the MP intervention (Chaplin et al, 2021;Emerson et al, 2021;Meppelink et al, 2016).…”

Internalizing and externalizing symptoms are common among adolescents, and mindful parenting can play a pivotal role in their prevention. Study 1 explores the association between internalizing and externalizing symptoms and the moderating role of mindful parenting. Study 2 explores the longitudinal association between mindful parenting and externalizing symptoms and whether mindful parenting moderates the longitudinal stability of externalizing symptoms. In Study 1, 420 parents (81.9% mothers) of children aged 12 to 17 (M = 14) completed measures of mindful parenting and their children’s emotional symptoms and conduct problems. In Study 2, 151 adolescents (65.6% girls) aged 12 to 17 (M = 13.9) from Study 1 completed a measure of antisocial behavior two times one year apart. Study 1 found an association between adolescents’ emotional symptoms and conduct problems, and this association was moderated by mindful parenting. The association was significant only in adolescents whose parents reported low levels of the mindful parenting factor called “being in the moment with the child.” Study 2 found an association between antisocial behavior at Wave 1 and 2, and this longitudinal association was moderated by mindful parenting. The longitudinal relationship was statistically significant exclusively among adolescents whose parents reported low levels of “mindful discipline.” Mindful parenting seems to be a protective factor for adolescents’ externalizing symptoms. Specifically, “being in the moment with the child” can diminish the association between emotional symptoms and conduct problems, while “mindful discipline” can be beneficial for reducing the stability of antisocial behavior over time.

“…In addition, parents with higher anxiety symptoms showed lower levels of mindful parenting (Bögels et al, 2014). Mindful parenting was crosssectionally related to youth's secure perceptions of their relationship with their parents (Moreira et al, 2018) and low externalizing and internalizing behaviors among youth (Yang et al, 2022). For this reason, mindful parenting can be a mediator in the relationship between parental anxiety symptoms and youth's emotional and behavioral difficulties.…”

One of the central questions in the theory of the intergenerational transmission of psychological symptoms is to identify whether parenting practices explain the transmission of psychological symptoms from parents to youth. This study examined the mediating mechanism of mindful parenting in the relationship between parental anxiety and youth’s emotional and behavioral difficulties. In three waves separated by six months, longitudinal data were collected from 692 Spanish youth (54% girls) aged between 9 and 15 years (Mage = 12.84 years, SD = 1.22 years at Wave 1) and their parents. Path analysis showed that maternal mindful parenting mediated the relationship between maternal anxiety and the youth’s emotional and behavioral difficulties. No mediating effect was found concerning fathers; however, marginal bidirectional relationships were obtained between paternal mindful parenting and youth’s emotional and behavioral difficulties. This study addresses one of the main concerns about the theory of intergenerational transmission using a multi-informant and longitudinal study design, concluding that maternal anxiety predicts less mindful parenting practices and these in turn predict youth’s emotional and behavioral difficulties.
