“…Our sample's alpha reliabilities for these scales ranged from .80 to .88. One measure of maternal locus of control was derived from the Parent Locus of Control Scale (PLOC; Campis, Lyman, & Prentice-Dunn, 1986). The PLOC assesses the parent's attribution of control in the parenting role and in parent-child interactions.…”

Child and familial pathways to academic achievement and behavioral adjustment: A prospective six-year study of children with and without ADHD

This longitudinal study examined familial and child predictors of academic achievement and behavioral adjustment. Participants included 115 children with ADHD and 59 normative comparisons. Data analyses spanned three assessment waves from elementary- through secondary-school grades. We evaluated the degree to which child and familial factors present during middle school mediated relationships between childhood ADHD, subsequent academic achievement, and behavioral adjustment during high school. We found that emotional and behavioral well-being of ADHD children during middle school mediated relations between childhood ADHD and adverse academic and behavioral outcomes during high school. In addition, familial factors in middle school years predicted the behavioral adjustment of children in both the ADHD and non-ADHD groups. Academic achievement during high school was strongly associated with previous achievement levels. Our results provide support for tailoring preventive interventions to the unique needs of children with ADHD and their parents at various stages of adolescent development.

“…Direct intervention with parents has also been shown to change their attitudes and thereby improve their willingness and ability to discuss CSA prevention with their children. In another USA study, Campis, Prentice-Dunn, and Lyman (1989) found that providing parents with information about the effectiveness of CSAPE and reinforcing their capacity to cope with the challenge of delivering CSA prevention messages significantly increased parents' intentions to discuss CSA prevention with their children. In a further USA study, Burgess and Wurtele (1998) studied the effects of a CSAPE video for parents on parent-child communication about CSA.…”

THIS PAPER PRESENTS THE results of a systematic review of literature on the topic of parents' views about child sexual abuse prevention education. It describes: i) what parents know about child sexual abuse prevention education; ii) what child sexual abuse prevention messages parents provide to their children and what topics they discuss; iii) what parents' attitudes are towards child sexual abuse prevention education in schools; and iv) their preferences for content. Electronic database searches were conducted to identify relevant literature published in English relating to child sexual abuse prevention programs and parents' views. A total of 429 papers was evaluated, with 13 studies identified as meeting the study's inclusion criteria. Worldwide, empirical research on parents' views about child sexual abuse prevention programs is limited and more research is needed in Australia. Implications for future research and practice are outlined.

“…Parental eflBcacy and parental control were measured in the study using the Parent Locus of Control Scale (Campis, Lyman, & Prentice-Dunn, 1986). These constructs are included because it has been suggested that feelings of self-efficacy, defined as "the conviction that one can successfully execute the behavior required to produce outcomes" (Bandura, 1977, p. 193) relate to the beUef that outcomes are related to one's actions (Bandura, 1977).…”
