  • Perceived parenting styles and emotional control as predictors of peer bullying involvement [Elektronski vir]
    Pirc, Tina, 1982- ...
    In our study we tested a model of the relationships among students’ perceived parenting styles, their emotional control and peer bullying involvement, since family characteristics are understudied ... and unclear in comparison with individual and school factors of peer bullying. Our sample included 202 students from 7th and 8th grade from 14 lower secondary schools. The resulting model showed that the authoritative parenting style positively predicted emotional regulation and observation of bullying. The authoritarian parenting style positively predicted relational and physical bullying with teasing and observation of bullying, and negatively emotional control. Emotional control as a mediating variable negatively predicted all forms of involvement in peer bullying. The results indicate the importance of promoting self-regulation skills in adolescents. Some practical implications for parents and school staff are discussed.
