The Mediating Effect of Parentification on Perceived Parental Rearing Styles and Social Anxiety among College Students
Abstract
This study investigated the relationship between perceived parental rearing styles, parentification, and social anxiety. In addition, researchers examined the mediating effect of parentification on negative parental rearing styles and social anxiety. The participants were 262 male and female college students, whose ages ranged from 18 years to 28 years of age. The psychological tests used in this research included the following: Parker’s Parental Bonding Instrument, Parentification Questionnaire, and LaGrea’s Social Anxiety Scale. The correlational analysis results indicated that negative rearing styles of both parents were positively correlated with the social anxiety of college students. However, parental rearing styles were significantly correlated with fear of others’ evaluation and fear of general social situation among factors of social anxiety. And, perceived negative parental rearing styles were also positively correlated with parentification, while parentification was positively correlated with social anxiety. There was no significant relationship between parentification and fear of new social situation. It was found that parentification was partially mediating negative parental rearing styles and social anxiety. Results of this study were interpreted with previous studies and the Adler’s theory of individual psychology about roles of parents in sociability.
