Parenting Styles
There are 4 parenting styles commonly used in psychology today that are based on the work of developmental psychologist Diana Baumrind in the 1960’s and then further expanded by Stanford Researchers Eleanor Maccoby and John Martin in 1983. These are:
- Authoritative
- Authoritarian (or Disciplinarian)
- Permissive (or Indulgent)
- Neglectful (or Uninvolved)
The parenting style theory is based upon evidence from studying preschoolers, and the close relationship that was discovered between the different types of parenting styles and children’s behavior.
Parenting For Brain goes into detail about each of the parenting styles, including their positives and negatives, as well as illustrating how the different styles of parenting can lead to different child development and child outcomes.
Classical Conditioning
In psychology, conditioning is the process of pairing two stimuli together so that if one stimulus can trigger a reaction, the other can do the same too – simply by learned association.
Parenting For Brain shows how this can be a useful parenting technique to help establish positive behaviors in your child, while also sharing some classical conditioning examples that you and your child will encounter in your everyday lives, so that you can always remain one step ahead.
