Abstract:
Although parents' educational stress has become a buzzing problem for Chinese parents and society in recent years, it is underresearched. To fill this gap, we first conceptualize the construct of parents' educational stress. Then, we use a multi-study scale development process to develop and validate a two-dimensional parents' educational stress scale. Moreover, drawing from social comparison theory, we explore this new construct's preliminary nomological network by examining its antecedents and consequences (controlling parenting and family-to-work conflict). Overall, our research suggests that the parents' educational stress scale is a reliable scale that can be used to assess this widespread phenomenon and that parents' educational stress has detrimental effects on parents' parenting style and work behaviour.
