Despite the importance of understanding the relations between parenting and youth's prosocial behavior, there is surprisingly little research focused on the relations among parenting practices, shame, guilt, and prosocial behaviors. The present study was designed to examine the intervening roles of shame and guilt in relations between parental support and psychological control and public and altruistic prosocial behaviors in college students. The participants were 304 (62.5% female, 76.3% European American, = 18.71, = 0.92) college students. We found partial support for our hypotheses. Specifically, we found that parental psychological control was positively linked to shame which, in turn, was positively linked to public prosocial behaviors. In contrast, parental support was positively linked to guilt which, in turn, was positively linked to altruistic prosocial behaviors and negatively linked to public prosocial behaviors. Further, psychological control was directly and positively linked to public prosocial behaviors and negatively linked to altruistic prosocial behaviors. Parental support was directly and positively linked to public prosocial behaviors. Discussion will focus on the implications of the findings for theories of moral socialization and prosocial development.
尽管理解养育方式与青少年亲社会行为之间的关系很重要,但令人惊讶的是,很少有研究关注养育方式、羞耻感、内疚感和亲社会行为之间的关系。本研究旨在探讨羞耻感和内疚感在父母支持与心理控制以及大学生公开亲社会行为和利他亲社会行为之间关系中的中介作用。参与者为304名大学生(62.5%为女性,76.3%为欧美裔,平均年龄 = 18.71岁,标准差 = 0.92)。我们的假设得到了部分支持。具体而言,我们发现父母的心理控制与羞耻感呈正相关,而羞耻感又与公开亲社会行为呈正相关。相反,父母支持与内疚感呈正相关,而内疚感又与利他亲社会行为呈正相关,与公开亲社会行为呈负相关。此外,心理控制与公开亲社会行为直接呈正相关,与利他亲社会行为呈负相关。父母支持与公开亲社会行为直接呈正相关。讨论将聚焦于研究结果对道德社会化理论和亲社会发展理论的启示。
