Resumo(s)
This chapter analyzes current evidence between parenting styles and adolescent
outcomes for the Portuguese context. Parenting styles and adolescent outcomes were
analyzed in a sample of 517 Portuguese adolescents aged 11 to 19 years old, of whom
214 (41.4%) were males. The adolescents were classified into 1 of 4 groups
(authoritative, authoritarian, indulgent, and neglectful) on the basis of self reported
ratings of their parents on two dimensions: Acceptance/involvement and
strictness/imposition. Adolescents were contrasted along two different set of outcomes:
(1) priority given to Schwartz's values (self-direction, universalism, benevolence,
tradition, conformity, security and realization) and (2) level of Self-esteem (appraised in
five domains: academic, social, emotional, family, and physical). Regarding the
consequences of using a particular parenting style on the personal and social adjustment
of children, studies from Anglo-Saxon literature suggest that the children from
authoritative families display a better adaptation that children socialized with other
parenting styles. Results with Portuguese adolescents suggest that adolescents from
indulgent families score the same, and even better than those of authoritative families, in
some indicators of psychosocial adjustment. The study refers to the need for further
research, taking into account new contexts and new cultures.
