Domenech Rodríguez Natalie Franceschi Rivera Zulma Sella Nieves Jahaira Félix Fermín Psicología Keywords parenting young children Puerto Rican families Little information is available on parenting practices of families living in Puerto Rico. In order to fill this gap, 55 two-parent families with a 6 to 11 year old child were surveyed on contextual stressors known to impact parenting (i.e., depression, subjective economic status, parenting stress, marital satisfaction), parenting practices (i.e., skills building, positive involvement, problem solving, monitoring, and effective discipline), as well as child externalizing behavior problems. Data revealed a sample with relatively low self-reported stressors, high endorsement of parenting practices, and subclinical child externalizing behaviors. All measures were reliable, indicating potential for future use in Puerto Rican samples. All relationships were in the expected direction. Specifically higher reports on stressors were negatively related to endorsement of effective parenting practices, and effective parenting practices were negatively correlated to problematic scores in child outcomes. Maternal problem solving fully mediated the relationship between marital satisfaction and child externalizing behaviors. Implications for future research are provided. 2013 artículo científico 0034-9690 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=28430082014 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=284 Revista Interamericana de Psicología/Interamerican Journal of Psychology application/pdf Sociedad Interamericana de Psicología Revista Interamericana de Psicología/Interamerican Journal of Psychology (Puerto Rico) Num.2 Vol.47 |
