Parents' Recall of Childhood Relationships and Sense of Love Worthiness: Associations with Children's Socioemotional Functioning in Middle Childhood.

Contreras, Josefina M.

Merrill-Palmer Quarterly, v46 n3 p491-513 Jul 2000

Examined association between parents' recollections of childhood parental acceptance and their children's socioemotional functioning. Assessed children's peer functioning through observers' ratings, mothers' reports, and children's self-perceptions. Children of mothers who recalled greater parental acceptance perceived themselves as more accepted by peers and performed better in peer interaction sessions. (DLH)
