Prior research has identified associations between parental identity dimensions (i.e., commitment, in-depth exploration, reconsideration of commitment) and both personality traits and parenting practices. However, the role of personality functioning in these relations remains underexplored, particularly from a dimensional perspective. The present cross-sectional study examined the impact of impairments in self (i.e., identity, self-direction) and interpersonal (i.e. empathy, intimacy) personality functioning on parenting behaviors, exploring the mediating role of parental identity in a community sample of 937 cisgender heterosexual parents (Mage = 41.80, SD = 7.48; 80.26% mothers) with children mean aged 9.16 years (SD = 5.22; 50.59% assigned female at birth). Structural equation modeling indicated that impairments in interpersonal functioning were directly associated with higher levels of parental rejection. Significant indirect effects also emerged: greater impairments in both self- and interpersonal functioning were linked to increased parental rejection via lower in-depth exploration and higher reconsideration of commitment. Additionally, self-functioning impairments were indirectly associated with greater parental rejection through reduced commitment. These findings underscore the mediating role of parental identity in the association between personality functioning and parenting, highlighting parental identity as a critical target for prevention and intervention efforts aimed at promoting healthier parent-child relationships.","PeriodicalId":54827,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Genetic Psychology","volume":" ","pages":"1-17"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145226435","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, few studies have explored the role of parents' general emotion beliefs in shaping their emotion socialization beliefs and practices. The present study aimed to 1) validate the Emotion Beliefs Questionnaire (EBQ), a measure assessing individuals' general beliefs about emotions, in Chinese culture, and 2) examine whether parents' general emotion beliefs would relate to how they support children's emotion regulation, with their beliefs about children's emotions acting as a mediator in between. Data were collected from 1,069 fathers and 1,495 mothers of preschool children in China. Confirmatory factor analysis supported a three-factor structure of the EBQ in the Chinese context. Measurement invariance was established across parent gender. Structural equation modeling analyses revealed that parents' general beliefs about the controllability of emotions were negatively related to their beliefs about children's abilities to control emotions. Furthermore, parents' beliefs about the usefulness of positive (negative) emotions were positively related to their beliefs about the value of children's positive (negative) emotions. Parents' beliefs about children's emotions were further associated with their support for children's use of adaptive or maladaptive emotion regulation strategies. These findings have demonstrated the applicability of the EBQ in Chinese culture and underscored the critical role of parents' general emotion beliefs in parental emotion socialization.","PeriodicalId":54827,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Genetic Psychology","volume":" ","pages":"1-18"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-09-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145132637","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Primary caregivers were recruited via an online research platform to answer a survey regarding the development of their child, including the SCQ, and standardized measures of attachment, cognitive development, and social behavior. Correlation and linear regression analyses demonstrated that the established cognitive and social predictors of mirror self-recognition are also related to wider aspects of self-awareness, as measured by the SCQ. Older infants, with strong attachment bonds who placed greater demands on their caregiver and engaged in more pretend play, imitation, self-regulation, and prosociality were likely to have a more developed sense of self. These factors accounted for over 60% of the variance in overall SCQ scores, with pretend play, prosociality, and relational demands making independently significant contributions to the model. To determine causality, we suggest that future observational studies broaden their understanding of the development of the self beyond the mirror mark test of self-awareness and focus on the longitudinal mapping of the social and cognitive process of self-other-differentiation.","PeriodicalId":54827,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Genetic Psychology","volume":" ","pages":"1-11"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-09-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145066630","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Study constructs were measured with student self-report, peer nominations, and teacher reports. We found anxiety was linked to poorer intrapersonal emotion awareness and greater use of adaptive and maladaptive intrapersonal regulation strategies. Social withdrawal was associated with poorer interpersonal emotion awareness and lower use of supportive and unsupportive interpersonal regulation strategies. Social withdrawal was also negatively associated with intrapersonal, adaptive strategy.

The results showed that both mothers' and fathers' higher emotion dysregulation were related to their own higher levels of psychological control, while higher maternal need frustration was related to higher perceptions of parental psychological control in adolescents. In turn, higher perceptions of parental psychological control in adolescents were related to adolescents' higher need frustration and emotion dysregulation. Furthermore, higher maternal emotion dysregulation was linked to higher adolescent emotion dysregulation, and higher paternal need frustration was linked to higher adolescent need frustration. These findings are explored in the context of SDT and highlight the significance of both emotion regulation ability and needs in shaping adolescent adjustment.","PeriodicalId":54827,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Genetic Psychology","volume":" ","pages":"331-348"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143043425","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The analysis of the themes revealed that children and adolescents expressed the sources of happiness mostly through hedonic values, whereas individuals in middle adulthood and late middle age predominantly expressed them in eudaimonic values. Sources of happiness in all life stages include the themes of closeness to family, closeness to friends, social relations, altruistic attitudes, social peace, and traveling. In young adulthood and later life stages, the theme of spirituality emerged, including concepts such as the meaning and purpose of life, belief in God, gratitude to God, and being connected with nature. In childhood, the themes of playing games, receiving gifts, and experiencing surprises were prominent sources of happiness, whereas in adolescence, the themes were eating favorite things and achieving autonomy.

We explored the mediating role of introjected and identified internalization on the intergenerational continuity of four parenting practices related to religion (assurance, disapproval/punishment, social involvement, and encouraged skepticism). We focused on Catholicism as an important test case based on its distinctive components amongst other Christian denominations. In addition to responding to items that measured religious value internalization, 279 community members from the United States were asked to reflect on their parents' use of four religious parenting practices during their childhood, as well as the current practices they are employing with their own children. Respondents' recollections of their parents' religious parenting practices significantly predicted their own current religious parenting practices. Whereas these associations were significantly mediated through identified internalization for all four practices, only the associations between past and current social involvement and disapproval/punishment were also mediated through introjected internalization. Recollection of parenting practices predict adult children's implementation of the same practices with their own children through their level of internalization of their parents' beliefs. Importantly, the efficacy of different types of internalization appears to depend on the specific nature of the behavior to be maintained.","PeriodicalId":54827,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Genetic Psychology","volume":" ","pages":"349-363"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143061493","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
