Emerging evidence suggests that overprotective and controlling parenting, often referred to as "helicopter parenting" may have negative implications on the child's mental health such as anxiety and depression. However, no systematic review on the topic exists.
Conducting a systematic review to identify all studies where the relationship between helicopter parenting and symptoms of anxiety and/or depression have been investigated.
A systematic literature search conducted the 3rd of November 2021 yielded 38 eligible studies. Since helicopter parenting is a fairly new construct, this review considered parental control and overprotective parenting to be dimensions of helicopter parenting and thus, eligible for the study. Study quality was assessed in accordance with Campbells Validity Typology.
The majority of the studies included in this review found a direct relationship between helicopter parenting and symptoms of anxiety and depression. However, validity problems undermine these findings with regarding to assessing the causal relationship between helicopter parenting and these symptoms. There were no longitudinal studies of sufficient quality to determine if helicopter parenting precedes the outcome of anxiety and depression.
Even though the majority of the studies included in this systematic review found a relationship between helicopter parenting and anxiety and depression, the evidence for this relationship is insufficient and must be investigated further. Findings suggest that it is important to include both maternal and paternal parenting style in future studies as they could affect the outcome of anxiety and depression differently.

新出现的证据表明，过度保护和控制型育儿方式，通常被称为“直升机式育儿”，可能会对孩子的心理健康产生负面影响，如焦虑和抑郁。然而，目前尚无关于该主题的系统综述。
进行一项系统综述，以确定所有研究直升机式育儿与焦虑和/或抑郁症状之间关系的研究。
2021年11月3日进行的系统文献检索产生了38项符合条件的研究。由于直升机式育儿是一个相当新的概念，本综述将父母控制和过度保护型育儿视为直升机式育儿的维度，因此符合该研究条件。研究质量根据坎贝尔效度类型进行评估。
本综述纳入的大多数研究发现直升机式育儿与焦虑和抑郁症状之间存在直接关系。然而，在评估直升机式育儿与这些症状之间的因果关系方面，效度问题削弱了这些发现。没有足够高质量的纵向研究来确定直升机式育儿是否先于焦虑和抑郁的结果出现。
尽管本系统综述纳入的大多数研究发现直升机式育儿与焦虑和抑郁之间存在关系，但这种关系的证据并不充分，必须进一步研究。研究结果表明，在未来的研究中纳入父母双方的育儿方式很重要，因为它们可能对焦虑和抑郁的结果产生不同的影响。
