A Further Examination of the Distinction Between Dependency-Oriented and Achievement-Oriented Parental Psychological Control: Psychometric Properties of the DAPCS with French-Speaking Late Adolescents

Psychological control refers to parental behaviors that intrude on the psychological and emotional development of the child. In 2010, Soenens et al. proposed a distinction between two domain-specific expressions of psychological control, that is, Dependency-oriented Psychological Control (DPC) and Achievement-oriented Psychological Control (APC). The aim of this study was to evaluate the factor structure, reliability, and convergent validity of the French form of the Dependency-oriented and Achievement-oriented Psychological Control Scale (DAPCS; Soenens et al. in J Pers 78(1):217-256, 2010) in a sample of late adolescents (N=291, mean age=21.65). Confirmatory factor analyses confirmed the hypothesized two-factor solution of the DAPCS for paternal as well as for maternal ratings. Moreover, high indices of internal consistency indicated that both subscales produced reliable scores. Further, convergent validity was confirmed by theoretically consistent associations between the DAPCS' subscales and well-established assessments of general parenting style dimensions. Finally, results evidenced gender specific patterns supporting the relevance of domain differentiation in the assessment of psychological control. Overall, the results of this study indicated that the French form of the DAPCS might be a useful instrument to assess two domain-specific types of parental psychological control among French-speaking adolescent

Group theoretical methods and multiquark hadrons

Tensor operator techniques are used to evaluate the colour-spin matrix elements of multiquark hadrons in the static spherical cavity approximation to the M.I.T. bag model, thereby obviating the necessity for the Jaffe approximation, which creates isospin degeneracies. All q⁴q, q²q² and q⁶ isospin multiplet masses are tabulated and are to be regarded as Jaffe-Low primitives. The dissociation of multiquark bag model eigenstates is shown to be related to a basis transformation and techniques for performing this transformation are described. Tables of 3jm factors and 6j symbols, adequate to calculate dissociations for all q²q² and q⁴q primitives and q⁶ primitives for strangeness ⩽ -2, are provided. The generalized Wigner-Racah algebra is reviewed with emphasis on phase freedom. A method of choosing phases is described and the simplifications due to certain canonical choices are noted. This leads naturally onto a discussion of Butler's method for calculating 3jm factors and 6j symbols for arbitrary compact group chains. The 6j symbols and 3jm factors required for the multiquark calculations are used as examples
