The Effects of Parental Firm Control: A Reinterpretation of Findings.
Lewis, Catherine C.
Psychological Bulletin, v90 n3 p547-63 Nov 1981
Evidence that parental firm control promotes effective socialization of children (i.e., promotes self-control, social responsibility) is examined, and a reinterpretation of existing measures of firm control that is consistent with attribution theory is offered. It is concluded that the notion that parental firm control promotes effective socialization should be further investigated. (Author/RH)
