“…The current body of literature for measuring parental distress, parental burden, or the quality of the caregiver-child relationship is extensive, with a long history of research [ 44 , 45 ]. However, there is a need to assess anxiety related to the COVID-19 pandemic among parents.…”

Background The COVID-19 outbreak and the measures to contain the global pandemic can have an impact on the well-being and mental health status of individuals. Parents of young children are particularly at risk for high levels of parental stress due to the current public health crisis, which can impact parenting behaviors and children’s well-being. Although different initial scales have been developed to measure COVID-19–related anxiety, they have not yet been tested sufficiently in parent samples. A brief measure of COVID-19–related anxiety is necessary for both quick assessment in practice and in larger epidemiological studies of parents. Objective The purpose of this study is to compare the distributions, validities, and reliabilities of four different COVID-19 anxiety scales: Fear of COVID-19 Scale, Coronavirus Anxiety Scale, Pandemic Anxiety Scale, and one subscale of the COVID Stress Scales. Based on the psychometric properties of these scales, we aim to provide recommendations for a brief unidimensional inventory to assess COVID-19–related anxiety among parents. Methods A cross-sectional web-based survey of 515 German-speaking parents (465 mothers, 90.3%) with at least one child aged 0-6 years was conducted during a 6-week period (June 29 to August 9, 2020). Half of the parents were recruited via Facebook parenting groups, while the other half were recruited through childcare centers. We psychometrically tested 25 items on COVID-19–related anxiety using the framework of classical test theory, including item analysis, correlational analysis of family variables, and exploratory factor analysis. Moreover, an item response theory approach was applied to estimate item discriminations and item difficulties. Results Based on the psychometric properties, three items of the Pandemic Anxiety Scale were identified as a single unidimensional factor. The adapted scale demonstrated acceptable internal consistency (α=.79), moderate to high item discrimination, strong positive intercorrelation with two other COVID-19 anxiety scales, and a small positive association with parenting stress. Mothers and fathers did not differ in total scores (t 513 =−0.79, P =.42). Conclusions Factor analysis suggests that existing COVID-19–related anxiety scales measure different latent constructs of anxiety. Furthermore, all scales showed only small to moderate correlations with trait health anxiety, suggesting that COVID-19–related anxiety is distinct from general health anxiety. The adapted “disease anxiety” subscale of the Pandemic Anxiety Scale is an economical measure for assessing COVID-19–related anxiety in parents. Directions for future research are outlined.

“…While parenting captures behaviors or strategies that parents use to achieve a specific outcome, parent–child relationship refers to the quality of interactions between a parent and a child, including emotional connection (Foran et al, 2020). Some parent–child relationship measures, however, overlap with specific parenting behaviors (e.g., behavioral control; Foran et al, 2020). From the EST perspective, the parent–child relationship was proposed to capture parent–child attachment security (Cummings & Davies, 2002), but measures of parent–child relationship vary (Erel & Burman, 1995).…”

This conceptual review summarizes two decades of research on conflict management behaviors and their implications for family functioning. We review the accumulated research on the impact of three common conflict resolution strategiesdestructive interparental conflict, constructive interparental conflict, and intimate partner violenceon parenting and parent-child relationships, including child abuse. Our review is based on published peer-reviewed articles that include families with minor children of various ethnic and racial compositions and diverse family forms. We also provide a brief overview of the literature covering correlates of specific conflict management behaviors and comment on the effectiveness (or lack thereof) of intervention Statement of Relevance: This updated review yields process-related insights. Prior research mainly conceptualized conflict in negative, narrow termswith correspondingly harmful outcomes. More recent work suggests that the impacts of conflict are shaped by how it is handled by adults and perceived by children. This review sheds light on correlates of negative conflictincluding verbal and physical conflict. It also highlights emerging evidence on the implications of constructive conflict and provides recommendations for future research.

“…Детско-родительские отношения (parent -child relationship) -это ком плексная категория, характеризующая родительский контроль, знание родителей о детях (parental knowledge), уровень доверия, субъективную удовлетворенность этими отношениями детей и родителей и др. Качество детско родительских отно шений критически важно для развития ребенка в раннем возрасте, имеет послед ствия для здоровья и благополучия на протяжении всей жизни [Foran et al, 2020], а также является важнейшим фактором благополучной социализации ребенка. В многочисленных исследованиях обсуждаются связи между качеством отношений и делинквентным и асоциальным поведением детей/подростков [Walters, 2019].…”

Статья посвящена анализу ряда ключевых конструктов, описывающих различные аспекты родительской активности, которые используются в междисциплинарных исследованиях детского образования. Цель статьи — реконструкция развития понятийного аппарата, прояснение значений и сфер применения ключевых конструктов, описывающих родительство, и освещение последних тенденций в исследованиях родительства в образовании. Для выявления ключевых конструктов проведен библиометрический анализ баз Web of Science и Scopus и отобраны 12 114 статей. Выделены три кластера ключевых понятий, в первый из которых вошли конструкты, характеризующие особенности взаимодействия родителя и ребенка (в первую очередь, стили воспитания) в контексте образования. Во втором кластере родительская активность оценивается «из перспективы школы», важнейшим понятием является родительская вовлеченность. Третий кластер включает понятия из наиболее новых публикаций, в которых обсуждаются полюса благополучия и стресса детей и родителей в контексте образования. Для дальнейшего анализа отобраны четырнадцать конструктов, наиболее часто используемых в англоязычной научной литературе (parenting styles, parent-child relationship, parental attachment, parental support, parenthood, parental practices, parental involvement, parental engagement, parental beliefs, parental education, parent training, parental stress, parent-child interaction, parental participation). Обсуждается путь, пройденный исследователями от первой половины XX века до начала 2021 г., рассматриваются доминирующие представления о вкладе родителей в развитие детей на разных этапах развития науки и перспективы исследований родительства в ближайшем будущем. Благодарность. Исследование осуществлено в рамках Программы фундаментальных исследований НИУ ВШЭ.
