This study aims to apply a meta-structural equation modeling to analyze the relationship between parents’ parenting attitudes and young children’s problem behavior and what kind of causal relationship exists between parents’ parenting attitudes and young children’s problem behavior. To achieve research questions, the researchers searched for various databases and analyzed 42 theses and 33 journals from 2000 to June 2023. When examining the intercorrelations between variables, positive parenting attitude and intrinsic problem behavior, positive parenting attitude and external problem behavior showed medium levels of negative effect sizes, negative parenting attitude and intrinsic problem behavior, and negative parenting attitude and external problem behavior showed medium levels of positive effect sizes. Positive and negative parenting attitudes showed large negative effect sizes, and intrinsic and external problem behaviors showed large positive effect sizes. When examining the meta-structural relationship, parents’ positive parenting attitudes showed small negative effect sizes on young children’s intrinsic and external problem behaviors, and parents’ negative parenting attitudes showed medium levels of positive effect sizes on young children’s intrinsic and external problem behaviors. This study is meaningful in that it sought ways to lower the problem behavior of young children by examining the relationship between parents’ parenting attitudes and young children’s problem behavior.

This study attempted to verify the mediating effect of positive and negative parenting attitudes on their children’s happiness through conversation time with parents and to determine whether there are differences between elementary and middle school students in such effects. To this end, the response data of elementary and middle school students collected in the third year (2020) of the Korean Children and Youth Panel Survey conducted by the Korea Youth Policy Institute were used. The analysis was conducted using structural equations and M-plus. The analysis results are as follows: First, in the case of elementary school students, positive parenting attitudes significantly affected happiness overall. In addition, in the case of middle school students, support for autonomy among positive parenting attitudes positively affected happiness. Second, in the case of middle school students, warmth and structural provision among positive parenting attitudes positively affected happiness by mediating conversation time with parents. Third, the mediating path of conversation time was not significant for autonomy support and coercion in common for all ages. Fourth, rejection of negative parenting attitudes in all ages negatively affected happiness by negatively mediating conversation time. Also, the inconsistency negatively affected happiness by negatively mediating conversation time. In conclusion, this study confirmed the positive effect of a positive parenting attitude on happiness rather than the amount of conversation time with parents. Moreover, it proved that a positive parenting attitude (warmness, structure provision) for middle school students positively affects happiness by mediating conversation time. These results are of great significance in that they provided evidence for the necessity of parental education considering the age of children.

Objectives This study aimed to explore the relationship between parenting attitudes and aggression in children and adolescents using a meta-analysis. To this end, parenting attitudes were classified into positive and negative groups, and their effect sizes were compared. In addition, differences in the relationship between parenting attitudes and aggression in children and adolescents according to subtype of aggression and age were verified.
 Methods Effect sizes of 106 were calculated from 43 studies conducted from 2000 to 2022. There are 6 categories of positive parenting attitudes,11 categories of negative parenting attitudes, 6 categories of aggression, and 3 categories of age. To calculate the effect size, the correlation coefficient r was converted to Fisher's Z. Using R, average effect size, heterogeneity and moderating effect verification, and publication bias were calculated.
 Results First, the effect size of the positive parenting attitude had a negative (-) value, and the effect size of the negative parenting attitude had a positive (+) value. Overall, sub-factors of negative parenting attitudes were more strongly related to aggression than those of positive parenting attitudes. Second, among parenting attitudes, affection (-) and responsiveness (-) had strong negative correlations with aggression, and psychological control (+) and coercion (+) had strong positive correlations. Third, among the types of aggression, overt aggression showed a strong correlation with both positive and negative parenting attitudes. Fourth, as for age, positive parenting attitudes showed strong effect sizes in elementary lower graders (-), while negative parenting attitudes showed strong effect sizes in elementary higher grades (+).
 Conclusions Based on the aforementioned findings, the relationship between the parenting attitude and aggression was specifically confirmed, and the moderating effect of age could be verified. These findings are anticipated to be helpful information for parents considering strategies to prevent or lessen aggression in their children.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of parenting attitudes on peer relationship quality of elementary and middle school students through the mediation of social mindset and social achievement goals. This study utilized questionnaire data from 1,010 students from the 5th grade of elementary school to the 3rd grade of middle school at 2 elementary schools and 2 middle schools in D City. SPSS 23.0 was used to conduct preliminary analysis, and Amos 21.0 was used to conduct two-stage structural equation model analysis to test the hypothesized model. As a result of the study, first, the positive parenting attitudes positively predicted elementary and middle school children's social growth mindset, social achievement goals, and peer relationship quality. Second, elementary and middle school children's social growth mindset and social achievement goals significantly predicted their peer relationship quality, and social growth mindset also had a positive effect on social achievement goals. Third, social growth mindset and social achievement goals each mediated the relationship between elementary and middle school students' perceived parenting style and peer relationship quality, and also had a sequential dual mediation effect. By confirming that positive parenting attitudes directly influence children's social beliefs, motivation, and peer relationship quality this study provides an opportunity to inform parents about the need to foster positive parenting attitudes. In addition, the identification of psychosocial variables (social mindset, social achievement goals) that predict children's social relationships and their causal relationships with parenting attitudes may expand parents' understanding of children's psychology and provide a theoretical basis for program interventions to help elementary and middle school students.

Background: Parents' parenting attitudes according to family structural changes affect adolescents' academic achievement, which is predicted to be important mediating factors such as depression and self-esteem. Purpose: The purpose of this study is to verify the relationship between depression and self-esteem between parents' parenting attitudes and adolescents' academic work skills. Methodology/Approach: In this study, the SPSS 23.0 program and the Amos 23.0 program were used to verify the suitability of the research model, and the suitability indices of the X2, GFI, AGFI, NFI, CFI, TLI, RMSEA, and RMR values were used to verify the suitability of the model. In addition, significance was verified through the Bootstrapping procedure to verify the mediating effect. Findings/Conclusions: As a result of the research model, first, as a result of path analysis, it was found that positive parenting had a negative (-) effect on academic work skills and depression and a positive (+) effect on self-esteem. Parents' negative parenting attitudes had a positive (+) effect on academic work skills, depression, and self-esteem, and self-esteem had a positive (+) effect on depression, but self-esteem did not affect academic work skills. Second, in the mediating effect verification, the positive parenting attitude of parents partially mediated the academic work ability, and self-esteem and depression were found to be double mediated. Third, in the comparison of indirect effects, the indirect effect was found to be significant for the partial mediating effect of depression between academic work skills in the positive and negative parenting attitude of parents, and the indirect effect was also significant in the double mediating effect of self-esteem and depression. Implications: In order not to give adolescents a school work experience, they set new goals with their parents, who are the main caregivers, and suggested ways to achieve a smooth life by improving their learning motivation.

Parental attitudes regarding pain interventions and perceptions of their child’s pain intensity likely influence the decision to administer postoperative analgesics. Our study examined the impact of daily fluctuations in child pain intensity and parental attitudes regarding complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) on analgesic administration following pediatric tonsillectomy. Parents of children undergoing tonsillectomy (n = 33) completed a survey assessing CAM attitudes and a 7-day postoperative electronic daily diary to record their child’s daily pain intensity and analgesic medications (acetaminophen, ibuprofen, or oxycodone). Generalized linear mixed models with Poisson distributions evaluated the effects of within-person (child’s daily pain intensity) and between-person (average postoperative pain, parental CAM attitudes) components on the number of medication doses administered. Higher daily pain intensity was associated with more oxycodone doses administered on a given day, but not acetaminophen or ibuprofen. Positive parental CAM attitudes were associated with less oxycodone use, beyond the variations accounted for by the child’s daily pain intensity and average postoperative pain. Both parental CAM attitudes and their child’s daily pain intensity were independently associated with parental decisions to administer opioids following tonsillectomy. Understanding factors influencing individual variability in analgesic use could help optimize children’s postoperative pain management.

The aim was to investigate the factors affecting the self-esteem and social competence of children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. Many studies have reported parenting variables such as parenting attitude and sense of competence have been suggested as significant determinants of socio-emotional development of children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. In South Korean society, the traditional culture of Confucianism is a strong influence on parenting practices and children's behaviour. However, there have been few studies that examined the relative significance of the parenting and other associated factors for self-esteem and social competence in children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder in Korea living in a strict parenting environment. This study was designed as a cross-sectional and descriptive survey. The subjects were 124 pairs of mothers and their children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, recruited from local paediatric psychiatric clinics in South Korea. Data collection was conducted through the use of questionnaires. Affectionate parenting attitude and co-morbid condition of the child were the most important predictors of self-esteem. Rejecting parenting attitude was the most important predictor of social competence. Higher levels of affectionate parenting attitude of mothers and non-co-morbid status of children both contributed unique variance to the overall prediction of higher self-esteem of children. Higher levels of rejecting parenting attitude of mothers contributed unique variance to the overall prediction of lower social competence in children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. Parenting attitude is the most important factor to contribute to the healthy socio-emotional development in children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. Health care providers need to develop and apply a parenting skills improvement program to improve positive parenting attitudes, which will benefit self-esteem and social competence in children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.

The purpose of the researcher was to investigate high school students' attitude toward and use of alcohol. The following independent variables were investigated: gender, grade level, peer attitude, parental attitude, and knowledge of alcohol. Alcohol questionnaire scores for Use of Alcohol and Attitude Toward Drinking were employed as dependent variables. The sample consisted of 191 students. Five composite null hypotheses and one null hypothesis were tested at the .05 level. A status survey factorial design was employed using a three-way analysis of variance (general linear model) for the composite null hypotheses and one null hypothesis was tested employing a t-test for correlation coefficient. Of the 36 comparisons, 11 were main effects and 26 were interactions. Of the 11 main effects, 8 were statistically significant at the .05 level. None of the 26 interactions were statistically significant at the .05 level. The results of the present study appeared to support the following generalizations: 1. a more positive peer attitude toward alcohol is associated with a more positive attitude toward drinking; 2. a more positive peer attitude toward alcohol is associated with higher use of alcohol; 3. a more positive parental attitude toward alcohol is associated with a more positive attitude toward drinking; 4. a more positive parental attitude toward alcohol is associated with higher use of alcohol; 5. males have more positive attitude toward drinking than females; 6. males have higher use of alcohol than females; 7. an increase in grade level is associated with a more positive attitude toward drinking; 8. there is no association between grade level and use of alcohol; 9. knowledge of alcohol is not associated with attitude toward drinking; 10. knowledge of alcohol is not associated with use of alcohol ; and 11. there is a positive association between attitude toward drinking and use of alcohol.

Objectives Parents play a crucial role in health-related practices of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). This study assessed the association between oral health status and oral health practices of children with ASD in relation to their parental attitudes and comfort in providing oral care. Methods This cross-sectional study included 75 children with ASD attending the special needs schools in Eastern Saudi Arabia from 2015–2018. Parents responded to a self-administered questionnaire assessing their attitudes toward oral health and comfort in providing oral care for children. The clinical examination assessed dental caries (decayed, extracted, and filled: (DMF and def)), gingival disease, and plaque accumulation. The Pearson correlation coefficient was used to assess the relationship between the study variables, while ANOVA followed by post hoc was used to assess the differences. Results Prevalence of dental caries in primary teeth was 76% and 68% in the permanent dentition with a mean of 0.85 ± 1.9 and 1.03 ± 2.9, respectively. Thirty-one participants had gingival problems, mean gingival index was 1.03 ± 0.88, and mean plaque index was 0.95 ± 0.43. Half of the parents supervised their children's brushing, which was significantly associated with plaque accumulation (p = 0.004), gingival disease (p < 0.0001), and def (p = 0.02). Parental attitudes and comfort in providing oral health care were not associated with oral health status of ASD children; however, positive parental attitudes were associated with lower sugar consumption (p = 0.043). An inverse correlation was observed between comfort in providing oral health care with gingival and plaque scores r = −0.18 and −0.23, respectively. Conclusions The data are indicative of poor oral health practices and status among ASD children. Parents' oral health care practices seem to be reactive rather than proactive. Positive parental attitudes were associated with lower sugar consumption. Greater comfort in providing care was negatively correlated with plaque accumulation and gingival problems.

Objectives This study was conducted to investigate the mediating effect of grit and self-efficacy in the relationship between parents’ positive parenting attitudes and adolescent’ happiness as perceived by high school students. Methods This study surveyed 360 high school students located in Gwangju and Jeollanam-do, and analyzed a total of 356 data, excluding 4 who had unfaithful responses. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS 23.0 and Macro 3.3, using descriptive statistics and correlation analysis of major variables, and verified the mediating effecting effect of grit and self-efficacy in the relationship between parents’ positive parenting attitudes and youth welling. Results First, the correlation between parents’ positive parenting attitude, grit, self-efficacy, and adolescent’s happiness perceived by high school students was statistically significant. Second, the partial mediating effect of grit was confirmed in the relationship between parents’ positive nurturing attitudes and adolescent’s happiness perceived by high school students. Third, the partial mediating effect of self-efficacy was confirmed in the relationship between parents’ positive nurturing attitudes and adolescent’s happiness perceived by high school students. Fourth, it was found that grit and self-efficacy were doubled in the relationship between parents’ positive nurturing attitudes and adolescent’s happiness perceived by high school students. Conclusions These researches results are expected to be provided as basic data for developing policies and programs to improve high school students’ happiness in the future.

Bed-sharing and related factors in early adolescents

This study was conducted for the purpose of providing basic data for understanding emotional changes according to the development process of middle school students in counseling and education fields by verifying the mediating effect of self-esteem in the relationship between parenting attitudes and school life adjustment, focusing on middle school students. It has been done. For this purpose, a survey was conducted on 389 middle school students located in N City, and descriptive statistics, correlations, and mediation effects were analyzed using SPSS 23.0 and Model 4 of PRECESS Macro. The research results First, positive parenting attitude and school life adjustment showed a significant positive correlation, and negative parenting attitude and school life adjustment showed a significant negative correlation. Second, self-esteem showed a partial mediating effect in the effect of positive parenting attitude on school life adjustment. Third, self-esteem showed a partial mediating effect in the impact of negative parenting attitudes on school life adjustment, but caution is needed in interpretation due to low explanatory power, so groups according to self-esteem level (top 25%, middle 50%, bottom 25%), and as a result of additional analysis, it was confirmed that each group's negative parenting attitude may have different effects on school life adaptation depending on the individual's level of self-esteem. Based on the research results, limitations and suggestions for follow-up research were discussed.

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition that has been increasingly recognized worldwide, including in Malaysia. However, there remains a gap in understanding the prevalence, parental attitudes, cultural influences, and the role of knowledge and awareness in shaping societal acceptance of ASD. This review aims to describe the prevalence of ASD among children in Malaysia, determine the role of parental attitudes in the developmental outcomes of children with ASD, examine the impact of cultural beliefs and social norms on parental attitudes, and explain how parental knowledge and awareness influence their acceptance of ASD children. Existing data shows that the prevalence of ASD in Malaysia is rising, partly due to increased awareness and improved diagnostic tools. It was recorded that 1 in 625 Malaysian children had ASD. Studies show a substantial increase in diagnosed cases, particularly in urban areas such as Selangor. High parental stress, lack of coping mechanisms, and financial burdens contribute to poorer developmental outcomes, thus, positive parental attitudes are associated with better social skills and emotion regulation in ASD children. In Malaysia, traditional and religious beliefs often contribute to stigma, leading to misconceptions about ASD being linked to karma or supernatural causes. This discourages parents from seeking early intervention and support. Research suggests that higher awareness levels are associated with earlier diagnosis, better intervention outcomes, and reduced stigma. It also improves parental understanding and support for ASD children.

Objective: This study attempted to investigate the structural relationship between positive parenting attitude, career decision motivation, career maturity, and career preparation behavior for high school students. Methods: To this end, a survey was conducted on 379 high school students (270 boys and 109 girls) in K city in Gyeongsangnam-do, and SPSS 20.0 and Amos 22.0 were used for data analysis. Results: The results of this study are as follows. First, positive parenting attitude, career decision motivation, career maturity, and career preparation behavior, positive parenting attitude had a positive significant effect on career decision motivation and career maturity, but did not have a significant effect on career preparation behavior. In addition, career decision-making motivation and career maturity had a positive and significant effect on career preparation behavior. Second, positive parenting attitude and career preparation behavior, the significant mediating effect of career decision motivation and career maturity was confirmed. Conclusions: This study is significant in that it confirmed that parents’ positive parenting attitude influences career adaptation.

The objective of this study was to examine the relation between mother’s ambivalence over emotional expressiveness and children’s strategies emotion regulation and social competence. The subject of the study was 360 children in 4, 5, 6 years old, their mothers and teachers of two kindergartens in Dal-seogu in Daegu. AEQ(King & Emmons, 1990) was used for mother's ambivalence over emotional expressiveness. The combination of ECR(Shiels & Cicchetti, 1995) was used for children’s strategies of emotion regulation and SCBE(La Freniere & Dumas, 1995) was used for social competence. For the analysis of data Pearson’s Correlation coefficient was applied.<BR> The Results were following: First, the study showed that there was a relation between mother’s ambivalence over emotional expressiveness and children’s strategies of emotion regulation. Both mother’s ambivalence over emotional expressiveness and ambivalence over negative emotional competence had negative correlation and had positive correlation with maladjusted strategies of emotion regulation. Secondly, it was showed that mother’s ambivalence over emotional expressiveness had relation with children’s social competence. Mother’s ambivalence over positive and negative emotional expressiveness had negative correlation with calmness, sociality, cooperation, self-control held in a subordinate position and had no correlation with integration. Thus, we can recognize that not only children’s age and gender but also mother’s ambivalence over emotional expressiveness was an important variable in children’s strategies of emotion regulation and social competence.
