Influence of Parents and Peers on Identity

Adolescence is a pivotal period of identity formation, during which individuals begin to answer questions central to their sense of self, such as "Who am I?" and "Who do I hope to become?" Both parents and peers play critical roles in guiding adolescents through this complex developmental phase.

Bullying

8.4K
A modern form of aggression is bullying. As you learn in your study of child development, socializing and playing with other children is beneficial for children’s psychological development. However, as you may have experienced as a child, not all play behavior has positive outcomes. Some children are aggressive and want to play roughly. Other children are selfish and do not want to share toys. One form of negative social interactions among children that has become a national concern is...

Self-Evaluation: Self-Enhancement and Self-Verification

Social psychologists have documented that feeling good about ourselves and maintaining positive self-esteem is a powerful motivator of human behavior (Tavris & Aronson, 2008). In the United States, members of the predominant culture typically think very highly of themselves and view themselves as good people who are above average on many desirable traits (Ehrlinger, Gilovich, & Ross, 2005). Often, our behavior, attitudes, and beliefs are affected when we experience a threat to our...

Stress and Mental Health

Chronic stress profoundly affects mental health, significantly influencing mood, behavior, and overall quality of life. Research closely links chronic stress with mental health conditions such as depression, anxiety, and substance use disorders. Ongoing exposure to stress can lead to physiological and psychological changes, initiating a cycle of emotional distress and maladaptive coping mechanisms.
Individuals with depression often experience challenges in both their personal and professional...

Depression: Overview

Depression is a prevalent mental illness marked by persistent sadness and lack of interest in previously enjoyable activities. It can take several forms, including major depression, persistent depressive disorder, and bipolar I and II disorders. Symptoms range from emotional changes like chronic worry to physical changes like sleep disturbances and suicidal thoughts. From a neurobiological perspective, depression is believed to be triggered by abnormalities in the brain's prefrontal cortex,...

Parental problematic internet use (PIU) is linked to adolescent depression. Clearer internet rules, especially for content, may weaken this association, suggesting parental monitoring is key.

Area of Science:

  • Psychology
  • Public Health
  • Sociology

Background:

  • Parental problematic internet use (PIU) is an emerging concern.
  • Adolescent mental health, particularly depression, is a significant public health issue.
  • The role of parental factors in adolescent well-being requires further investigation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To examine the association between parental PIU and adolescent depression.
  • To investigate whether internet-related rules moderate this association.
  • To provide clinical recommendations for addressing parental PIU in adolescent mental health treatment.

Main Methods:

  • Recruited 4592 adolescent-parent dyads using national Qualtrics panels.
  • Utilized validated scales: Problematic and Risky Internet Use Screening Scale (PRIUSS-3), Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9), and internet specific parenting practice scale (ISPPS).
  • Employed regression analyses to assess associations and moderation effects.

Main Results:

  • Parental PIU significantly predicted adolescent depression symptoms, including suicidal ideation (β = 0.35).
  • Time-related internet rules showed a non-linear moderation effect; the association was strongest with unclear/mid-range rules.
  • Stricter content-related rules demonstrated a linear moderation, weakening the link between parental PIU and adolescent depression.

Conclusions:

  • Parental PIU is a risk factor for adolescent depression, independent of adolescent PIU.
  • The structure and clarity of internet-related parenting rules influence this association.
  • Clinicians should assess parental PIU and involve parents in monitoring adolescent internet use content.
