Abstract

In this study, we explored the differences between mothers' and children's perceptions of mothers' parenting styles (DMCP of MPS) and examined the effects of these differences on children's depression, aggression, and ego-resilience. A total of 233 pairs of mothers and teen-aged children participated in the study. Our analysis produced four main findings. First, the mothers perceived their parenting attitudes as more rational and affectionate than their children did; children whose mothers rated their parenting styles more favorably had higher levels of depression and aggression and lower ego-resilience. Second, the correlation analysis and the structural equation model verification confirmed that as the DMCP of MPS increased, children's levels of depression and aggression increased, and their ego-resilience decreased. Third, ego-resilience partly mediated the relationship between DMCP-Rationality and depression. Lastly, we found that ego-resilience and depression had dual mediation effects on the relationship between DMCP-Rationality and children's aggression. This paper concludes with a discussion of the implications of these findings and suggestions for future studies.

  • Lack of autonomy due to maternal control was associated with depressive symptoms.

    “Lack of autonomy due to maternal control was associated with depressive symptoms”

    From A Systematic Review of “Helicopter Parenting” and Its Relationship With Anxiety and Depression (2022) · cites this paper as Cho et al. (2020)

    The Results (DMCP of MPS; page unavailable) associate differences between mothers’ and children’s parenting-style ratings with higher depression in the children. The Discussion (page unavailable) identifies the significant depression finding specifically with differences in perceived rationality, not a lack of autonomy due to maternal control. The reported autonomy–control correlation compares mothers’ and children’s ratings; it is not a correlation with depression. (LLM, conf=0.84)

    Experimental — accuracy not yet measured
  • Both studies focused solely on maternal control found a relationship with depression.

    “and both found a relationship with depression (Mandara and Pikes, 2008; Cho et al., 2020).”

    From A Systematic Review of “Helicopter Parenting” and Its Relationship With Anxiety and Depression (2022) · cites this paper as Cho et al., 2020

    The Abstract and Results report a relationship between differences in mothers’ and children’s perceptions of parenting styles and children’s depression. But the study did not focus solely on maternal control: it examined several dimensions of mothers’ parenting styles, including rationality and affection. (LLM, conf=0.88)

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.
