Abstract

Previous research suggests helicopter parenting may be disproportionately associated with lower levels of adjustment during emerging adulthood. However, the size, direction, and significance of the effects of helicopter parenting across different indicators of emerging adult functioning has not been empirically established. Therefore, the purpose of this meta-analytic investigation was to clarify the magnitude of the effect of helicopter parenting across multiple indices of well-being, including: internalizing behaviors (anxiety and depressive symptoms), academic adjustment, self-efficacy and regulatory skills. We also explored whether parent gender moderates these associations. An analysis of 53 studies and 111 effect sizes revealed that helicopter parenting was associated with increased internalizing behaviors and reduced academic adjustment, self-efficacy and regulatory skills. Parent gender did not moderate these associations. The findings are discussed in terms of future directions, particularly the need to identify potential moderators. In conclusion, these findings support recommendations for autonomy-supportive parenting practices during emerging adulthood.

超速养育:对直升机式养育在新成人功能的多个指标上的元分析
以前的研究表明,直升机式教养可能与成年期较低的适应水平有很大关系。然而,直升机养育在不同的新兴成人功能指标上的影响大小、方向和意义尚未得到实证证实。因此,这项荟萃分析调查的目的是澄清直升机养育对多个幸福指数的影响程度,包括:内化行为(焦虑和抑郁症状)、学业适应、自我效能和调节技能。我们还探讨了父母的性别是否会调节这些关联。对 53 项研究和 111 个效应大小的分析表明,直升机养育与内化行为的增加、学业适应性的降低、自我效能感和调节技能有关。父母的性别并没有调节这些关联。研究结果对未来的发展方向进行了讨论,特别是需要确定潜在的调节因素。总之,这些研究结果支持在新兴成年期采取自主支持型养育方法的建议。

期刊介绍: The Journal of Adult Development is an interdisciplinary journal covering development in early adulthood, midlife, and later adulthood. The Journal supports innovative theoretical and empirical articles that help direct the future of our field. Critical issues include the importance of life-long education, work and family changes, and physical and mental health influencing adult development. In addition, the impact of personality, emotions, cognition, and biomarkers are areas of interest. The Journal of Adult Development emphasizes the importance of interindividual differences and contextual issues influencing adult development. Interventions that promote optimal development throughout the adult life span are also welcome.
