La interacción entre padres e hijos y su relación con los problemas de conducta externalizante
This current study proposes to analyse the possible relationship which exists between externalizing problem behaviour in children reported by parents through the BASC (Behaviour Assessment System for Children), and the parenting style according to the PCRI (Parent-Child Relationship Inventory) composed of seven factors such as support, satisfaction with parenting, involvement, communication, limit setting, autonomy granting, and role orientation, in a sample of 278 children (152 male & 126 female) between 3 and 14 years old. The results show the existence of a significant relationship between exter nalizing problem behaviour in children and the majority of the parenting factors. Furthermore, a model is established which is able to predict 30,7% of the variance with respect to externalizing problem behaviour in children, made up by limit setting from both parents, communication and role orientation from the fathers, and support from the mothers. Finally, the utility of results to raise intervention strategies within the family based on limit setting is discussed.
