Parental Cognitions, Parental Behavior, and the Child's Understanding of the Parent-Child Relationship.

Dekovic, Maja; And Others

Merrill-Palmer Quarterly, v37 n4 p523-43 Oct 1991

Studied the relationship of parental reasoning complexity to parental behavior during parent-child interactions, and the effect of this relationship on children's social cognitions. Results indicate that parental reasoning complexity is related to parental behaviors of restrictive control, authoritative control, and support, which, in turn, are related to the child's interpersonal understanding.
