MARTINEZ, Marta; GARCIA, María Cristina  y  AGUIRRE-ACEVEDO, Daniel Camilo. Response to stress, temperament and child rearing in Colombian children. Rev.latinoam.cienc.soc.niñez juv [online]. 2015, vol.13, n.2, pp.1065-1080. ISSN 1692-715X.  https://doi.org/10.11600/1692715x.13236150914.

The purpose of this study was to explore the relation between the temperament, expectations and parenting practices of a sample of 1 year olds (264) and the levels of salivary cortisol as a response to stress in a subsample (59). The response to stress was associated with the variable of disciplinary practices (R=0.31) and negatively correlated with the variables of extroversion (R= -0.35) and regulation (-0.21). There was no correlation found between the variables of temperament and child rearing, which is interpreted in the light of Goodness-of-Fit model. These results are relevant for the planning of parenting programs and highlight the importance of abolishing physical punishment and promoting flexible child rearing practices that adapt to individual differences.

Palabras clave : temperament; child rearing; stress; punishment; response to stress; salivary cortisol; discipline practices; surgency; regulatory capacity; parenting programs.
