This study examines the influence of socio-emotional parenting towards children's motivation for, and interest in, studying. More particularly, the parental influences were observed while the ...children studied at home during the Covid-19 pandemic. The sample (n = 66) was drawn from the population of students in the sub-district of Sambas, in the West Kalimantan region of Indonesia. Data was examined to assess parental influences on improvement in children's motivation and interest. This quantitative research applied simple regression analysis to the data. The analysis implementation uses the classical assumption test and hypothesis test with the assistance of SPSS for Windows version 26. The research results show that (1) there was a significant influence of 7.3% of the socio-emotional parenting role towards children's motivation to study at home during the Covid-19 pandemic; (2) there was a significant influence of 18.4% in the role of socio-emotional parenting towards a child's interest in studying at home during the Covid-19 pandemic; and (3) there was a significant influence of as much as 64% on a child's interest in studying at home during the Covid-19 pandemic.
Objectives
Parent-child synchrony during interaction might possess important features that underlie parenting processes throughout development. However, little is known regarding the association ...between parent-child physiological synchrony and emotional parenting behaviors during middle childhood. The main goal of the study was to examine whether emotional parenting was positively or negatively associated with parent-child physiological synchrony for school-age children.
Methods
Adopting a biopsychosocial perspective, we incorporated the interbeat interval (IBI) and behavioral observation data of 150 parent-child dyads (child
M
age = 8.77,
SD
=
1.80) to explore the patterns of moment-to-moment dyadic physiological synchrony and to investigate whether these patterns were associated with two emotional parenting behaviors (psychological control and psychological unavailability).
Results
Our findings provided some initial evidence that in low to moderately stressful situations that mimic daily parent-child interaction, parent-child physiological synchrony was indicative of different emotional parenting behaviors in various parent-child interactive situations. Specifically, in the collaborative context (parent-child working together to complete a task), parent-child physiological synchrony was indicative of less psychological unavailability, whereas in the competitive context (parent-child resolving disagreement with each other), parent-child physiological synchrony was indicative of less psychological control. The study implications and future research directions are discussed.
Conclusions
Overall, our findings suggested that dyadic physiological synchrony, indexed by parent-child moment-to-moment matching of IBI, was associated with fewer negative emotional parenting behaviors.
According to emotion socialization theory, parent characteristics interact with child and contextual factors to influence parent responding to youth emotions, which impacts youth emotional reactivity ...and regulation. However, little is known about how treatments for youth emotional disorders, particularly those with significant parent intervention components, may impact parents’ own emotional reactivity and their responses to youth emotion. We investigated whether parents (
N
= 91) participating in a transdiagnostic treatment for youth emotional disorders experienced change in their own emotional reactivity (i.e., symptoms, distress tolerance DT, emotion regulation), supportive responses to youth emotion (e.g., expressive encouragement), and unsupportive responses to youth emotion (e.g., punitive, minimizing). We also examined the relationship of these changes to treatment-related change in youth symptoms. Parent anxiety, depression, stress, DT, and cognitive reappraisal significantly improved from pre- to post-treatment. Unsupportive responses to youth emotions also decreased. Change in parent DT and baseline youth symptoms were the only significant predictors of parent-rated post-treatment youth anxiety and depressive symptoms when all variables were included in regression models. This is the first known investigation of changes in parent emotional reactivity and responses to youth emotions in response to a transdiagnostic treatment of emotional disorders for youth. Results support the beneficial impact of treatment involvement on parents’ own emotional reactivity and behaviors, as well as the potential importance of targeting parent DT to improve youth symptoms.
Highlights
Youth-focused transdiagnostic treatment led to significant improvements in parent psychopathology and distress tolerance.
Youth-focused transdiagnostic treatment led to significant decreases in unsupportive parent responses to youth negative emotions.
Improvement in parent distress tolerance was significantly associated with youth treatment outcomes.

Frontal resting electroencephalogram (EEG) asymmetry is an important physiological indicator of emotion regulation, positive/negative emotion, and approach/withdrawal tendencies. The present study ...examined the relationship of parent-child frontal resting EEG asymmetry patterns and explored the potential moderating role of emotional parenting on such a relationship. We recorded the frontal resting EEG asymmetry of thirty-nine children (
M
age = 8.87 years) and their primary caregivers (
M
age = 39.41 years) and coded their emotional parenting behaviors (psychological control and psychological unavailability) based on behavioral observations. The results indicated that there was not a direct association between parent-child frontal resting EEG asymmetry but that the relationship was moderated by parental psychological control. Specifically, the resting frontal EEG asymmetry of the parents was negatively associated with the EEG asymmetry of their children only under higher levels of parental psychological control. However, psychological unavailability did not exhibit a moderating effect. Accordingly, our findings highlight the critical but differential role of emotional parenting behaviors with respect to the association between the frontal resting EEG asymmetry of parents and their children.
