What are three sets of parenting behaviors that are associated with positive adolescent outcomes?
What will be an ideal response?
Parental support that creates an emotionally positive environment is associated with higher levels of interpersonal
competence and confidence in adolescents. A lack of psychological control is related to better psychological and
emotional development of adolescents. Psychological control refers to parents trying to change children's feelings or
thoughts to those that the parent feels are more acceptable, threatening to withdraw love, or inducing guilt.
Increased behavioral control refers to monitoring activities and providing clear and consistent guidelines for
acceptable behavior, and is associated with lower levels of antisocial behavior on the part of adolescents.
