Abstract

Chinese secondary school students in Shanghai (n=3022) responded to measures of perceived parent-child relational qualities (parental trust of the child, child’s trust of parents, child’s readiness to communicate with parents, and child’s satisfaction with parental control), parental behavioral control (including indicators of knowledge, expectation, monitoring, discipline, and demandingness), and parental psychological control. Results showed that parental trust of the child and child’s trust of parents were positively related to child’s readiness to communicate with the parents and satisfaction with parental control. Parental-child relational qualities were positively related to different aspects of behavioral control but negatively related to psychological control. Relative to measures of parental behavioral control measures, parental psychological control was a stronger predictor of parent-child relational qualities.
