Felson, Richard B., Zielinski, Mary A.·1989·Journal of Marriage and the Family

Abstract

Longitudinal data are used to estimate the reciprocal relationship between parental support and self-esteem among children in the fifth through eighth grades. The results suggest that parents' supportive behavior-as measured by children's reports-affects the self-esteem of children but that self-esteem also affects how much support children report their parents give them. In addition, parents have a greater effect on the self-esteem of girls than of boys. Finally, mothers and fathers have similar effects for both

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
