“…Early work on parenting styles examined a myriad of dimensions including: responsiveness/unresponsiveness (Baldwin, 1948;Freud, 1933;Rogers, 1960;Sears et al, 1957;Schaefer, 1959), democratic/autocratic (Baldwin, 1948), emotionally involved/uninvolved (Baldwin, 1948), control/noncontrol (Schaefer, 1959), acceptance/rejection (Symonds, 1939), dominance/submission (Symonds, 1939), and restrictiveness/permissiveness (Becker, 1964). Studies conducted by these early researchers found that parents who provide their children with nurture (also described as warmth, responsiveness), independence (also described as democratic), and firm control had children with higher levels of competence and social adeptness (see Baldwin, 1948;Sears et al, 1957).…”

“…[1][2][3][4][5][6][7] Rather than focusing on specific parenting practices (such as breast versus bottle feeding or physical punishment versus time out), these researchers have tried to identify the child development correlates of general, crosssituational variations in general parenting approach, often referred to as parenting styles or dimensions. These studies focused less on what parents do and more on how they do it.…”

“…Because investigators have often disagreed about which of these approaches is the most appropriate, the advantages and disadvantages of each will be considered, along with recommendations for future research. the first factor were: Acceptance versus rejection, 7 emotional warmth versus hostility, 1 warmth, 6 love versus hostility, 10 and warmth versus hostility. 9 Labels for the second factor in these same five studies were: Dominance versus submission, 7 detachment versus involvement, 1 permissiveness versus strictness, 6 autonomy versus control, 10 and permissiveness versus restrictiveness.…”

Parenting Dimensions and Styles: A Brief History and Recommendations for Future Research

2013

Over the last decade, researchers have uncovered relationships between general parenting styles and children's obesity. This is an emerging area of research, and there currently is a great deal of interest in the parent's role. This review was written to provide researchers entering this area with a historical introduction to parenting research and to point to some directions for future inquiry. Over the last 75 years, considerable insight has been gained into individual differences in parenting behavior, especially regarding the dimensions underlying individual differences in general parenting approach, and parenting styles resulting from individual differences on these dimensions. The history of empirical attempts to identify parenting dimensions and styles is reviewed briefly, followed by a review of more recent studies of parenting styles. Next is a discussion of data analytic approaches to measuring parenting, with a particular emphasis on variable-centered versus person-centered approaches. Because investigators have often disagreed about which of these approaches is the most appropriate, the advantages and disadvantages of each are considered, along with recommendations for future research.

“…The analysis based on this conception seemed to be more predictive of the child' attributes than the ones based on the specific parental practices, because the influence of any particular practice in the child's development was easier lost among the complexity of other parenting attributes (Baldwin, 1948;Orlansky, 1949;Symonds, 1939).…”

In order to explain the worst levels of adaptation showed by children with disabilities in relation to non disabled children, this paper aims to carry out a review of the most important advances achieved in recent decades in the study of parenting styles and parenting practices in relation to academic competence and behavior problems of children with and without disabilities. For this, we have carried out an analysis of the main works that show this relationship in the population, and then, we did the same including disability as a differentiating factor. In this sense, the authoritative style and specific parenting practices such as setting limits, communication, autonomy or monitoring are described as good predictors of adaptive behavior in children. However, we miss studies to confirm this relationship in children with disabilities. In this population, most of the papers refer, on the one hand, to expectations and, on the other hand, the stress in parenting and its effect on the parents' mental health. In conclusion, the need to provide additional information about family relationships and disability is discussed.
