| Summary: | 碩士 === 輔仁大學 === 兒童與家庭學系碩士班 === 98 === This work investigates the parent’s and children’s perceptions and attributions to permissive parenting behavior. A comparison of the content of the attributions was performed, and the relation between permissive parenting behavior, attributions and parent-child relationship were identified. A questionnaire was completed by 258 pairs of parent and their 5th and 6th grade children. The data was analyzed by descriptive statistics, factor analysis, t-test, ANOVA and hierarchical regression.
Results indicated that the frequencies of all the parent’s and child’s perceptions of permissive parenting behavior are “once in awhile”. In addition, the participants tend to select “mostly disagree” from the attribution pool. Although children attribute permissive parenting behavior to “incapable of parenting” or “involving with love”, but parents do not discriminate the meanings from the attributions. Furthermore, parents agree more to the attributions when parents’ perception on permissive parenting behavior is at a higher frequency, while the parent-child relationship is unsatisfactory. On the other hand, children agree more to the attribution “involving with love” when children’s perception on permissive parenting behavior is at a higher frequency, while the parent-child relationship is satisfactory. However, if children agree more to “incapable of parenting” attributions, the parent-child relationship is unsatisfactory. Finally, suggestions for further studies were proposed based on the results of this study.
