Parent Styles Associated with Children's Self-Regulation and Competence in School.
Grolnick, Wendy S.; Ryan, Richard M.
Journal of Educational Psychology, v81 n2 p143-54 Jun 1989
Three dimensions of parent style--autonomy support, involvement, and provision of structure--were studied using 64 mothers and 50 fathers of children in grades 3 through 6. Focus was on defining parental influences on children's school-related adjustment and performance. The three aspects of home environment were differentially associated with varied school outcomes.
