Introduction: There are numerous scales of parenting styles adapted for Peruvian adolescents. In addition, some report a structural model that does not match the model of the original version.

Objective: Evaluate the psychometric properties of the Steinberg's Parenting Styles Scale in Peruvian adolescents.

Method: The sample included 563 students. A model of relationships in three dimensions is confirmed: involvement, psychological autonomy, and parental supervision.

Results: The analysis suggested the elimination of five items. The resulting scale shows a good fit: = 469051, = 184, = 254, CFI = .95, TLI = .94, RMSEA = .053, SRMR = .063. Likewise, it shows an optimal internal consistency determined by the McDonald's omega index.

Conclusion: The internal structure of the questionnaire was similar to the original questionnaire and presented adequate reliability and construct validity. however, additional studies with larger age range samples and different Peruvian subcultures are required to achieve its generalization.

Background: Apart from child behavioral problems which were ameliorated by increasing parenting skills, parental well-being is one of the important components for development of parenting sense of competence (PSOC), which subsequently affects parenting style and child outcomes. This randomized controlled trial study aims to determine whether a brief asynchronous parent-focused online video intervention (POVI) that was easily accessible would be effective in increasing PSOC and parental well-being.

Although evidence from previous studies suggests that adolescents with negative coping styles who experienced victimization are more likely to exhibit depressive symptoms, these associations have not yet been disentangled to separate between-person differences from within-person effects. To investigate the within-person bidirectional relationships among relational victimization, coping styles and depressive symptoms, this study conducted a four-wave random intercept cross-lagged panel model analysis. The final sample consisted of 1506 adolescents, 72.

Article Synopsis
  • Preterm birth significantly impacts parents' mental health, and posttraumatic growth (PTG) can help them cope with this trauma, though research on PTG in this context is limited.
  • A study involving 160 parents in Shenzhen, China, found that most had low to medium PTG levels, with influences like older gestational age, higher Apgar scores, positive coping styles, and better social support correlating with higher PTG.
  • The findings highlight the importance of social support and effective coping mechanisms in fostering PTG among parents dealing with the challenges of having a preterm infant.
