Title: 외조모의 긍정적 양육행동과 어머니의 자기분화 및 긍정적 양육행동이 학령 후기 아동의 자아개념에 미치는 영향
Abstract: Objective: This study examined the effects of maternal grandmothers’ positive parenting behavior and mothers’ self-differentiation and positive parenting behavior on self-concept in late childhood. Methods: A total of 341 5 th – and 6 th – grade elementary school children and their mothers participated in the study. Children were surveyed regarding perceptions of their mothers’ positive parenting behavior and their own self-concept. Mothers responded to questionnaires regarding both positive parenting behavior of their mothers and their own self-differentiation. The data were analyzed using SEM. Results: Maternal grandmothers’ positive parenting behavior had an indirect effect through mothers’ self-differentiation and positive parenting behavior on children’s self-concept. Mothers who perceived positive parenting behavior in their mothers in their childhood showed positive parenting behavior (as perceived by their children), and those children reported a higher level of self-concept. Mothers who perceived their mother’s parenting behavior in their childhood more positively reported a higher level of self-differentiation, and those mothers showed more positive parenting behavior (as perceived by their children), which led to more positive self-concept in children. Conclusion: The findings specify the pathways from maternal grandmothers’ positive parenting behavior to children’s self-concept through mothers’ self-differentiation and positive parenting behavior in an aspect of the intergenerational transmission of parenting. The findings also emphasize the importance of mothers’ positive parenting behavior for positive self-concept in late childhood.
