Abstract

Background

Evidence from Euro-American and Eastern cultures suggest that parenting practices are linked to diverse problems, including aggression in youths. Findings from the sub-Saharan region rarely contribute to this debate.

Method

We examined the contributions of Baumrind's parenting style typology to overt aggression among Nigerian adolescents. Adolescents (n = 261) completed measures of parenting styles and overt aggression.

Results

Results revealed that males were more overtly aggressive compared to females. Parenting styles were weakly related to overt aggression in adolescents. Girls who received authoritative parenting styles were the only group noticed to have a decline in overt aggression especially as they grew older. Boys who received authoritative parenting as well as boys and girls who received both authoritarian and permissive parenting reported sustained heightened levels of overt aggression even as they grew older.

Conclusion

Parenting outcomes differ between gender and that authoritative parenting training could help reduce overt aggression among adolescent girls.

父母的教养方式会导致明显的攻击性,但年龄和性别也有影响
来自欧美和东方文化的证据表明,父母的做法与各种各样的问题有关,包括青少年的攻击性。撒哈拉以南地区的调查结果很少有助于这一辩论。方法探讨了鲍姆林德教养方式类型对尼日利亚青少年公开攻击行为的影响。青少年(n = 261)完成了父母教养方式和显性攻击的测量。结果男性的攻击性明显高于女性。父母教养方式与青少年的显性攻击性关系不明显。受到权威型父母教育的女孩是唯一一组明显攻击性下降的女孩,尤其是随着年龄的增长。接受权威型教育的男孩,以及同时接受权威型和宽容型教育的男孩和女孩,即使随着年龄的增长,公开的攻击性水平也会持续提高。结论父母教养结果存在性别差异,权威教养训练有助于减少青春期女孩的显性攻击行为。
