  • - Results indicated that while there is a link between parents' emotional competence and their attachment styles, this correlation is less clear for children.
  • - The findings also showed that parents who used authoritative and permissive parenting styles had higher emotional competence, and that children with authoritative parents displayed greater emotional competence themselves.

Article Abstract

The goal of this study was to examine whether a subject's emotional competence correlates to attachment styles and parenting styles in children and their parents. The study was conducted with fifty children (9-11 years old) and their parents, both of whose emotional competence (EKF) and parenting style (PAQ) were measured. The attachment styles of parents and children were measured with the Adult Attachment Scale (AAS) and the Bochumer Bindungstest (BoBiTe), respectively. The findings provide initial support to the assumption that attachment is related to emotional competence in parents. This relationship, however, was not significantly correlated in children. In addition, authoritative parenting and permissive parenting were significantly associated with emotional competence in parents. Emotional competence in children showed to be associated with an authoritative parenting style.
