|a People from different cultures use different parenting styles. Some cultures tend to use an authoritarian parenting style predominantly while other cultures tend to exhibit an authoritative parenting style. Interestingly authoritative parenting style differs across cultures. In Western countries, authoritative parenting has certain democratic practices, such as taking children’s preferences into account when making family plans, or encouraging children to express their own opinions. However, a cross-cultural study of parenting styles in four countries found that authoritative parents in China and Russia did not take their children’s preferences into account when making family plans and did not encourage children to state their own opinions. Researchers have become interested in factors that affect individuals’ psychological well-being. Certainly, parenting style has its long-term effects on physical as well as psychological development. One long term effect of psychological development among others is psychological well-being. One of the most important factors that affects individuals’ psychological health and well-being is the parenting style individuals are raised under. Psychological health is dependent on positive aspects such as positive cognitions and emotions. According to Ryff (1989a) psychological well-being is a dynamic concept that includes subjective, social, and psychological dimensions, as well as, health-related behaviors. Ryff crafted six dimensions of psychological well-being and developed a research scale that is used by people who are interested in studying psychological well-being. Ryff’s dimensions of positive psychological health are self-acceptance, positive relations with others, autonomy, environmental mastery, purpose in life, and personal growth It is essential to study the impact of differing parenting styles across cultures and whether these differences affect children’s psychological well-being. Discovering these effects will increase the understanding of the influence of parenting practices on children’s psychological well-being. Research supports how different parenting styles might affect different emotional outcomes in children. However, there is not enough research on how different parenting styles across cultures affect children’s psychological well-being. Therefore, the focus of this study is to explore the relationship between culture, perceived parenting style, and psychological well-being. |
