Crianza y agresividad de los menores: ¿es diferente la influencia del padre y de la madre?

Ana Tur-Porcar, Vicenta Mestre, Paula Samper y Elisabeth Malonda

La crianza aporta mensajes y reglas que modulan el desarrollo de la personalidad de los menores. Estos mensajes tienen una influencia positiva o negativa sobre su conducta. El objetivo de este estudio empírico ha sido analizar las relaciones entre la agresividad física y verbal de los hijos y las hijas y el estilo de crianza practicado por el padre y por la madre. Se ha realizado sobre una muestra de 2.788 alumnos entre 10 y 15 años, que cursan el tercer ciclo de Educación Primaria (44%) y el primer ciclo de Educación Secundaria (56%). De ellos, 1.412 son varones (50,6%) y 1.375 son mujeres (49,3%). Los resultados muestran que la agresividad de los hijos varones está más relacionada con los factores de crianza asociados a la madre, además de la inestabilidad emocional. En las hijas, ambos progenitores influyen por igual.

Parenting and children’s aggression: Are there differences in the influence of the father and the mother? Child rearing provides messages and rules that mediate the children’s personality. These messages have a positive or negative influence on their behaviour. The objective of this empirical study was to analyse the relationship between physical and verbal aggression of sons and daughters and parenting style practiced by the father and the mother. The sample consisted of 2,788 students, aged 10 to 15 years, studying either the third cycle of Primary Education (44%) or the first cycle of Secondary Education (56%). Of them, 1,412 were boys (50,6%) and 1,375 were girls (49,3%). The results show that children’s aggressiveness is more related to factors associated with the mother’s parenting. In the case of daughters, the influence of parenting factors are caused by both parents (father and mother).
