GAXIOLA ROMERO, José Concepción; GAXIOLA VILLA, Eunice y FRIAS ARMENTA, Martha. Contextual and Individual Variables Related to Maternal Positive Parenting Style. Univ. Psychol. [online]. 2017, vol.16, n.2, pp.51-62. ISSN 1657-9267. https://doi.org/10.11144/javeriana.upsy16-2.vcir.
According to developmental psychopathology theory, psychological development takes different trajectories that can result in adaptation or psychopathology. We hypothesize that some positive contextual and individual variables are functional to psychological adaptation and participate in adaptive niches, which constitute the context where we regularly found the positive competences, as is exemplified by maternal positive parenting style. The aim of the study was to prove in a path model, the functional interdependence of individual and contextual variables in maternal positive parenting style. The sample was formed by 254 mothers, selected from low and high level of academic achievement schools, where their sons or daughters were studying. The variables measured in the model were neighborhood’s social cohesion, family’s social support, perceived health, self-regulation, self-esteem, and psychological well-being. The results support the hypothesis and show the functional interrelationships of the variables in the model proved, and also the presence of an adaptive niche in maternal positive parenting style, which could be used as an example for future studies.
