170400.pdf (publisher's version ) (Open Access)This study examined relationships between the self-conscious emotions of guilt and shame in both clinical (N = 104) and non-clinical (N = 477) (young) adolescents aged 11-18 years, who completed a questionnaire to assess perceived parental rearing behaviors (EMBU-C) and a scenario-based instrument to measure proneness to guilt and shame (SCEMAS). Results indicated that parental rearing dimensions were positively related to self-conscious emotions. Regarding the non-clinical sample, both favourable (emotional warmth) and unfavourable (rejection) paternal and maternal rearing dimensions were significant correlates of guilt- and shame-proneness. The results for the clinical sample were less conclusive: only maternal emotional warmth and rejection were found to be significantly associated with guilt and shame. Interestingly, no associations between any of the paternal rearing dimensions and self-conscious emotions emerged. Taken together, these results are in keeping with the notion that parental rearing factors are involved in the development of both adaptive and maladaptive self-conscious emotions in adolescents.10 p
Parenting Style and Dimensions Questionnaire: A review of Reliability and Validity
Increasing interest in measuring parenting styles, especially with
the Parenting Style and Dimensions Questionnaire, has emerged in
the last 17 years. However, a critical review of studies using this
instrument to assess parenting styles has not been done. The present
article proposes an extensive review of studies that applied the
instrument, focusing in particular on the different uses of the scale,
its psychometric properties, and its association with other constructs.
A discussion about the applicability, measurement reliability and
validity of the instrument is provided
