Self-determination theory defines two important dimensions of teaching style: autonomy support and structure.The purpose the present study was to investigate synergistic relationship perceived teacher provision structure in prediction self-regulated learning.Students (N=526) completed questionnaires assessing support, structure, learning.First, were found be positively correlated, suggesting that student generally goes hand with order classroom. Second, moderated regression analyses...
In current research on parenting, 2 ways of conceptualizing perceived parental autonomy support can be distinguished. Parental defined in terms promotion independence (PI) or volitional functioning (PVF). This study aimed to establish the empirical distinctiveness both conceptualizations and examine their relative contribution prediction adolescents' adjustment. The authors conducted 3 studies, which sampled late adolescents (N=396, mean age=18.70 years, 79% female; N=495, age=19.30 74%...
Parental monitoring, assessed as (perceived) parental knowledge of the child's behavior, has been established a consistent predictor problem behavior. However, recent research indicates that more to do with adolescents' self-disclosure than parents' active monitoring. Although these findings may suggest parents exert little influence on authors argue this conclusion is premature, because in itself be influenced by rearing style. This study (a) examined relations between parenting dimensions...
A developmental contextual test of a dual-cycle model identity formation is presented. In addition to commitment-formation cycle-represented by Marcia's (1966) classical dimensions exploration in breadth and commitment making--the comprises commitment-evaluation cycle--constituted 2 additional depth identification with commitment. sample 402 college students assessed 4 times over years, both the cycle increased across time. Identification showed slight decrease Latent growth curve (LGC)...
Psychologically controlling teaching (PCT) refers to the use of intrusive behaviors that pressure students act, think, and feel in particular ways.The goal present research was examine dynamics involved PCT.Study 1 examined self-regulated learning achievement outcomes PCT, whereas Study 2 antecedents (i.e., individual environmental pressures).In 1, we found PCT related negatively students' self-regulation strategies, which, turn, positively academic achievement.Students' relative autonomy...
Different theoretical contentions on gender differences in loneliness exist, often including the emergence of particular developmental periods. To explain those ideas, current meta–analysis synthesizes available evidence across lifespan. Three–level meta–analyses were conducted with 751 effect sizes, covering 399,798 individuals (45.56% males). Results showed a close–to–zero overall ( g = 0.07). Most examined moderators non–significant, except for age, scope sampling area, and year...
Social relationships are of vital importance for children's and adolescents' development, disruptions in these can have serious implications.Such play a central role both loneliness social anxiety.Although phenomena closely related, they largely been studied separately, important questions remained unanswered concerning how go together within across time.Multilevel meta-analyses were performed on 102 cross-sectional studies, published between 1981 2016, including 41,776 participants (39%...
Longitudinal data were used to evaluate whether parental psychological control would have a negative impact on identity formation. Perceived and 4 dimensions (i.e., commitment making, exploration in breadth, identification with commitment, depth) assessed 5 times college sample. Associations between associations both positive association breadth) stable across time. Further, the developmental pathways of these constructs appeared be correlated: Increases associated simultaneous decreases...
