Family co-responsibility links family involvement with students' socioemotional needs and with the actions carried out by the school. This study aimed to understand, from the perspective of education professionals, family co-responsibility for the socioemotional support of basic education students in public schools. A qualitative study with a descriptive design and an interpretive orientation was conducted. Data were collected through an asynchronous, self-administered open-ended questionnaire completed by three professionals with different profiles and were examined through qualitative content analysis and source triangulation. The results show heterogeneous family involvement and support practices that combine educational monitoring with emotional support. Participants distinguished between having communication channels available and sustaining ongoing coordination with families. The barriers identified were mainly located in family and socioeconomic conditions, and no barriers were explicitly attributed to the school. Family-school collaboration was recognized as relevant to addressing socioemotional needs. Based on the professionals' perceptions, the study concludes that family support integrates educational and socioemotional dimensions and gains meaning through its connection with the school, within a co-responsibility in which both settings play distinct and complementary roles.

This mixed-methods study examined whether first-year teachers could improve relationships with students through Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS). Fifty novice teachers implemented one of three PBIS strategies: daily one-on-one conversation, verbal praise, or immediate rewards with 192 selected students over a two-week period. Teacher-student relationships were measured using the Student-Teacher Relationship Scale (STRS) before and after the intervention. Results showed significant reductions in conflict (t(191) = 7.14, p < .001, d = 0.98) and moderate increases in closeness (t(191) = –7.11, p < .001, d = 0.67). No significant differences emerged across grade levels, teacher and student gender, or PBIS strategy type. Thematic analysis of teacher reflections highlighted improvements in engagement, cooperation, emotional regulation, and relational trust. Although the study was limited by its two-week duration and reliance on teacher self-reports, the findings demonstrate that even brief PBIS interventions can yield measurable relational benefits. Implications are discussed for teacher preparation programs and school-based practice. Keywords: teacher-student relationships, Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS), teacher preparation programs, first-year/novice teachers, school climate.

This study aims to examine the impact of parental involvement and socioeconomic status (SES) on academic achievement at public senior high schools in Tangerang Municipality. The study used a cross-sectional survey design. The study population consisted of students from public senior high schools in Tangerang Municipality. We applied Weighted Regression analysis utilizing a sample size of 893 participants. We used a validated questionnaire that was distributed via WhatsApp groups. The findings showed that parents with high SES tended to be more involved in their children's learning; however, high parental SES did not guarantee high academic achievement for their children. The mean difference tests revealed that academic achievement did not differ significantly by parental involvement, whereas it did differ significantly by parental SES. Researchers also found that parents’ involvement in education significantly boosted students' academic achievement. In contrast, parents' SES did not have a significant impact. Intensive discussions, good communication, full attention, giving gifts, and providing learning facilities are effective parental involvement actions that encourage increases in children's academic achievement. Parental involvement matters more than parental SES in improving students’ academic achievement. Therefore, maintaining strong relationships between schools and parents is essential to support students’ educational outcomes. Local governments need to strengthen regulations governing parents' roles at home and at school. Keywords: academic achievement, parental involvement, SES.

The article discusses the concepts of spirituality, morality, and personal qualities of students, reveals the essential characteristics of spiritual and moral education of students, and the importance of cooperation between parents and teachers in educational activities.

Mothers often manage everyday discipline while also carrying the strain and worry that come with raising a child, yet these experiences are rarely studied together in Indian samples. This study examined the relationship between parenting attitude, parental stress, and anxiety in mothers. A quantitative, cross-sectional correlational design was used with 59 mothers selected through convenience sampling. Participants completed a 30-item questionnaire rated on a five-point Likert scale, in which parenting attitude was assessed through three dimensions (laxness, over-reactivity, and verbosity), and parental stress and anxiety were each assessed with ten study-developed items. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics, Cronbach's alpha, and Pearson's correlation, with Spearman's rank correlation as an additional check. Mean scores were 3.30 (SD = 0.54) for parenting attitude, 3.06 (SD = 0.89) for parental stress, and 3.16 (SD = 0.72) for anxiety. Significant positive correlations were found between parenting attitude and parental stress (r = .52, p < .001), parenting attitude and anxiety (r = .44, p < .001), and parental stress and anxiety (r = .51, p < .001), and all three remained significant in a sensitivity analysis. Over-reactivity and verbosity were more strongly related to stress than laxness was. The findings suggest that difficulties in discipline, parenting strain, and worry tend to occur together, and that support for mothers could address emotional strain alongside parenting skills.

Families raising children with special educational needs (SEN) may experience adversities. However, previous research has focused on individual children, and limited research has examined family polyvictimization (FPV) and SEN correlates from a family-centered perspective. This study analyzed data from a family-based survey conducted in Hong Kong between August 2022 and March 2023, comparing families with and without children with SEN. A total of 1,400 respondents participated (mean age = 39.75 years, SD = 6.99; 75.4% female), each representing one participating family. Of these respondents, 130 reporting children with SEN and 1,270 without. Respondents provided information on sociodemographic characteristics, family violence and FPV experiences, and health outcomes. Multivariable logistic regression identified factors associated with having children with SEN. Lifetime FPV prevalence was higher among families reporting children with SEN than among other families (23.1% vs. 8.2%). After adjustment for sociodemographic, family-context, psychosocial-attitude, and social-support variables, FPV was associated with higher odds of SEN-reporting family status (aOR = 2.630, 95% CI 1.529–4.524). Other adjusted correlates included lower family income, male dominance, violence socialization, lower perceived social support, violence against adult parents, children, and older family members, poorer respondent physical health, and lower child quality of life. These findings underscore the importance of viewing families raising children with SEN as a window for identifying family violence and call for early detection, systematic screening, and family-centered interventions. Future research should examine these associations over time and strengthen family-based support.

Parental education is one of the most visible predictors of children's socio-emotional and academic trajectories, though its influence on their school adjustment and mathematical reasoning is rarely examined together. This review is intended to synthesize theoretical and empirical literature about how parental education level influences adaptation of children at school and their mathematical thinking. There are several pathways through which parental education influences their children's academic behaviour, home environment stimulation for mathematical tasks, and educational expectations. Literature evidence shows that higher parental education is associated with richer home numeracy and literacy environments. More homework involvement, and smooth behavioural and emotional adjustment to school are also positively correlated to higher parental education, whereas lower parental education is associated with socioeconomic disadvantage and lack of access to resources for their children both at home and school. The review is particularly focussed in Indian context covering the National Education Policy 2020 and its emphasis on foundational literacy and numeracy, implications of parental involvement , teacher practices, and policy interventions.

A questionnaire survey was conducted with 1,635 students from two secondary schools in Hunan Province to examine the statistical roles of interpersonal emotion regulation and family functioning in the relationship between anhedonia and depressive symptoms in adolescents. The results showed that (1) after controlling for grade and gender, anhedonia was significantly and positively associated with depressive symptoms; (2) a continuous-variable model based on the full sample indicated a significant partial mediating effect of interpersonal emotion regulation on the association between anhedonia and depressive symptoms; and (3) family functioning moderated the association between anhedonia and interpersonal emotion regulation, such that lower family functioning scores (i.e., healthier family functioning) were associated with stronger conditional indirect effects linking anhedonia to depressive symptoms through interpersonal emotion regulation. When BDI-II-C Items 4 (loss of pleasure) and 12 (loss of interest) were removed from the depressive symptom total score and the analyses were repeated, the main results remained stable. An exploratory sensitivity analysis using the BDI-II-C cutoff revealed a significant mediating pathway in the below-cutoff group, whereas the regression association between interpersonal emotion regulation and depressive symptoms was not significant in the at-or-above-cutoff group. Given that grouping by the cutoff of the same dependent variable narrows the within-group score range and may affect within-group regression estimation, these subgroup results are reported only as exploratory sensitivity analyses. These findings suggest that interpersonal emotion regulation and family functioning are important factors in understanding the statistical association between anhedonia and depressive symptoms in adolescents.

Family-school engagement is key to holistic development and educational equity in early childhood. This study proposes and empirically evaluates a hierarchical model of engagement, composed of five dimensions: communication-participation, trust-inclusion, learning support, institutional resources, and digital mediation. The objective was to analyze the relationships between these dimensions from a dual perspective (families and teachers) in early childhood education contexts. Participants included 299 teachers and 308 family members from urban early childhood institutions, who completed a validated Likert-type questionnaire. A cross-sectional quantitative design was applied, employing descriptive analyses, internal consistency estimation (Cronbach's alpha), interdimensional correlations, and hierarchical modeling. The findings revealed: (a) high internal consistency across all dimensions (α ≥ .90), (b) strong correlations between dimensions within each group, (c) a more cohesive perceptual pattern in families, and (d) a greater weight of relational dimensions in the hierarchical model. This study provides empirical evidence and a robust theoretical framework for evaluating engagement in an integrated manner. Its distinctive value lies in offering a useful tool for institutional assessments, pedagogical decisions, and public policies aimed at improving communication, cultural inclusion, and digital equity in early childhood education settings

Academic expectations can be an important part of adolescent development, but students may experience these expectations as pressure. This study examined perceived parental pressure and academic stress among school students aged 16-18 years in Thanjavur, Tamil Nadu, and assessed the association between the two variables. A quantitative, descriptive-correlational, cross-sectional design was used. Convenience sampling yielded 61 consenting students. Data were collected through an online structured questionnaire containing a 20-item perceived parental-pressure measure and a 30-item academic-stress measure. Descriptive statistics, Cronbach's alpha, and Pearson's product-moment correlation were used. The mean perceived parental-pressure score was 52.31 (SD = 17.07), and the mean academic-stress score was 85.62 (SD = 22.59). Internal consistency was high in this sample (α = .95 and .96, respectively). Perceived parental pressure was positively associated with academic stress, r = .38, p = .003, 95% CI [.14, .57]. Students reporting greater perceived parental pressure tended to report greater academic stress. Because the study was cross-sectional and used a convenience sample, the findings do not establish causation and should not be generalised to all adolescents. The results highlight the value of realistic academic expectations, supportive family communication, and accessible school-based student support.

Introduction The rapid expansion of social media has created new opportunities for adolescent connection but has also heightened risks of involvement in online aggression and cyberbullying. This study examined how problematic social media use, social media concealment, and parental media monitoring relate to cyberbullying victimization and perpetration among adolescents. Methods Participants include 686 adolescents ages 12–18 from 12 schools. Logistic generalized linear mixed models were used to account for the nested structure of students within schools. Results Results indicated that both problematic social media use and concealment from parents were significantly associated with greater odds of cyberbullying victimization and perpetration, whereas parental media monitoring was not a significant predictor in either model. Discussion Findings highlight the importance of addressing adolescents’ specific patterns of media use and point to multi-systemic prevention approaches involving families, schools, and technology developers to mitigate cyberbullying risks.

Parental overprotection, which combines high control with low encouragement of autonomy, has been linked to anxiety in young people, but findings are mixed. This correlational, cross-sectional online survey examined whether adolescents? reports of parental overprotection were related to their anxiety. Participants were 86 school-going adolescents aged 13 to 18 years (M = 15.58, SD = 1.60; 43 girls, 40 boys, 3 who preferred not to say), recruited by convenience (snowball) sampling. They completed the brief current form of the Parental Bonding Instrument (overprotection = control minus autonomy items, averaged across mother and father) and the child version of the Screen for Child Anxiety Related Emotional Disorders (SCARED). Overprotection was not significantly related to anxiety, Spearman ρ(82) = .09, 95% CI [-.13, .30], p = .415, and results were similar for mothers, fathers, and in sensitivity analyses. The study could detect only correlations of about .30 or larger, and the overprotection scores had low reliability, so the result is inconclusive. Anxiety scores were high: 79.1% scored at or above the SCARED cut-off of 25. Larger samples and more reliable measures are needed.

This study addresses the process of symbolic grief experienced by mothers of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), considering psychological vulnerability and resilience in the face of the deconstruction of the image of the idealized child. It is based on the understanding that an ASD diagnosis may disrupt expectations developed throughout pregnancy regarding the child’s development and future, thereby affecting the maternal experience. The general objective is to analyze the process of symbolic grief experienced by mothers of children with ASD, integrating psychological vulnerability, resilience, and support networks. Specifically, the study seeks to identify factors of psychological vulnerability resulting from maternal overload; discuss the impact of symbolic grief on atypical motherhood; and evaluate the role of support networks and public policies in promoting these women’s mental health. This is a narrative literature review of a qualitative, descriptive, and exploratory nature, conducted using the BVS-Psi and SciELO databases. The results indicate that a diagnosis may trigger psychological distress, frustration, guilt, fear, and emotional overload, contributing to social isolation and mental health problems. However, psychological support, family and community assistance as part of a support network, and effective public policies contribute to strengthening resilience and reframing the experience of atypical motherhood. It is concluded that understanding the impact of symbolic grief on these mothers is essential to broadening the perspective of psychology and public policies regarding their socio-emotional needs, promoting comprehensive care and strengthening mental health.

Parental relationships remain an important aspect of psychological functioning throughout our lives. However, little research has been carried out examining their relationship with emotional regulation in non-clinical populations. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between perceived parental attachment and emotional regulation in young adults using a quantitative non-experimental correlational design. An online questionnaire consisting of sociodemographics and 30 Likert scale statements, 15 statements relating to parental attachment (1-15) and 15 statements relating to emotional regulation (16-30) was completed. From the sample of 102 responses exported, 1 case did not give consent and so were removed from analysis, giving a total of 101 complete cases. Reverse scoring was applied to negatively worded statements. Mean scores for parental attachment were 51.83 (SD = 12.15). Mean scores for emotional regulation were 49.42 (SD = 8.41). Internal reliability for parental attachment was high with a Cronbach?s alpha score of .877. Internal reliability for emotional regulation was acceptable with a score of .767. There was a significant positive association between parental attachment and emotional regulation (r(99)=.511, 95% CI [.35, .64], p<.001). Approximately, 26% of variance appeared to be shared between the two variables. Young adults with higher levels of perceived parental attachment (closeness, trust and open communication) reported higher levels of emotional regulation. As this study used a correlational design, this represents an association rather than a causal relationship. Overall, the findings provide evidence to take a relational approach and consider individuals within their context in counselling psychology.

The widespread availability of smartphones and internet access has made TikTok part of children’s everyday entertainment. This situation requires parents to guide children not only by limiting screen time but also through communication that helps children understand appropriate content and use. This study aims to describe and analyse parents’ interpersonal communication patterns in controlling TikTok use among children aged 7–12 years in Villa Gading Harapan 5 Housing Estate, Tambun Utara, Bekasi. The study used a descriptive qualitative design. Data were collected from April to June 2026 through semi-structured interviews, non-participant observation, and documentation. Five parents were selected as key informants using purposive sampling, while two children participated as supporting informants. The data were analysed through data reduction, presentation, conclusion drawing, and technique triangulation. The findings show that parents apply the five elements of effective interpersonal communication proposed by Joseph A. DeVito: openness, empathy, supportiveness, positiveness, and equality. Supportiveness is the most visible element, expressed through advice about age-appropriate content, direct supervision, time limits, and diversion to other activities. Openness remains the most vulnerable element because one child tended to restrict parental access to digital activities. The study indicates that controlling TikTok use is more effective when rules are accompanied by warm dialogue, emotional understanding, and opportunities for children to express their views. Parents should therefore maintain consistent, non-judgmental conversations and make digital supervision part of daily family interaction.

The transition from early childhood education to kindergarten is a critical developmental period for all children, and one that can be particularly demanding for those with special educational needs (SEN). This article presents findings from a mixed methods case study conducted in two private schools in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. This study investigates how parental attitudes, teacher preparedness, communication gaps, and structural barriers influence school transitions. Findings reveal a consistent divergence in perspective: parents generally regarded transition difficulties as normal and time-limited, whereas teachers identified sustained, complex challenges related to emotional regulation, large class sizes, limited specialist training, and insufficient information about incoming children. Parental reluctance to accept a formal diagnosis was viewed as a significant barrier in both schools. Given the small and unevenly distributed sample, reported divergences are viewed as illustrative rather than generalisable. The study contributes to a growing body of research evidence on inclusive educational transitions in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) context. Its originality lies in comparing perspectives within an under-researched educational and cultural context, revealing differences in how parents and teachers perceive transition difficulties. This context-specific evidence has implications for educational policy and practice.

Interactions between melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH) neurons and oxytocin neurons are crucial for parental care. Whole-cell patch-clamp recordings demonstrated that MCH inhibits paraventricular hypothalamic nucleus (PVN)-oxytocin neurons through activation of barium-sensitive inwardly rectifying potassium channels, potentially G-protein coupled inwardly rectifying potassium channels, and pup-directed aggression was positively related to loss of MCH neurons. Our findings offer a glimpse into the neural mechanisms underlying the evolutionary regulation of offspring caregiving and abuse in males.

Relationship quality is typically assessed using self-report questionnaires, which are time-consuming and may not fully capture interpersonal processes during interaction. Automated facial expression analysis provides an opportunity to study nonverbal behavior during naturalistic interactions in a more objective and continuous manner. We characterize dyadic facial synchrony from video-based facial action unit time series and examine its association with marital relationship quality. Specifically, dyadic coordination is quantified using zero-lag cross-correlations between partners’ facial behaviors across multiple action units. Computed over successive temporal windows, these synchrony measures form a multidimensional synchrony profile, termed the S-matrix. We evaluate the proposed method using an iMotions dataset comprising video recordings of in-person conversations, frame-level facial expression estimates, and Quality of Marriage Index (QMI) survey responses from 27 married couples. Results from an unsupervised clustering analysis demonstrate that the proposed synchrony representation provides better separation between couples with high and low marital relationship quality than conventional statistical feature baselines.

کیفیت رابطه معمولاً با استفاده از پرسشنامه‌های خودگزارشی ارزیابی می‌شود که زمان‌بر بوده و ممکن است فرایندهای بین‌فردی را در طول تعامل به طور کامل منعکس نکند. تحلیل خودکار حالات چهره این امکان را فراهم می‌کند تا رفتارهای غیرکلامی در تعاملات طبیعی به شیوه‌ای عینی و پیوسته مورد مطالعه قرار گیرد. در این پژوهش، هم‌زمانی چهره‌ای دوتایی بر اساس سری‌های زمانی واحدهای کنشی چهره مبتنی بر ویدئو توصیف شده و ارتباط آن با کیفیت رابطه زناشویی بررسی می‌شود. به طور مشخص، هماهنگی دوتایی با استفاده از همبستگی‌های متقاطع بدون تأخیر میان رفتارهای چهره‌ای زوجین در چندین واحد کنشی کمی‌سازی می‌شود. این شاخص‌های هم‌زمانی که در پنجره‌های زمانی متوالی محاسبه می‌شوند، یک نمایه هم‌زمانی چندبُعدی به نام ماتریس S را تشکیل می‌دهند. روش پیشنهادی با استفاده از مجموعه داده iMotions شامل ضبط ویدئویی مکالمات حضوری، برآوردهای حالت چهره در سطح فریم و پاسخ‌های پرسشنامه Quality of Marriage Index (QMI) از ۲۷ زوج متأهل ارزیابی شده است. نتایج تحلیل خوشه‌بندی بدون ناظر نشان می‌دهد که نمایش هم‌زمانی پیشنهادی، جداسازی بهتری میان زوج‌های دارای کیفیت رابطه زناشویی بالا و پایین نسبت به ویژگی‌های آماری متداول فراهم می‌کند.

Abstract Adolescence involves social reorientation toward peers, increasing exposure to interpersonal stressors and vulnerability to psychopathology. The current study investigated the potential buffering effects of high-quality parent–child relationships (PCRs) on the associations between peer stress exposure and multiple measures of positive valence systems (PVS) functioning. The study included 165 adolescents, ages 9–16 (81 girls, M age = 11.93, 78.18% White). Interviews were conducted to gather data on PCR quality and peer stress exposure. Adolescents self-reported their reward sensitivity, and behavioral reward sensitivity was derived from a reward learning paradigm. The reward positivity (RewP) was recorded during three tasks using monetary, social, and food reward stimuli. Contrary to our predictions, adolescents who had higher-quality PCR showed a blunted monetary RewP ( β = 0.17, p = .020) and reduced behavioral reward sensitivity ( β = 0.15, p = .040), when also reporting high levels of peer stress exposure. No significant interaction was found with other measures as the outcomes. The results suggest that high-quality PCR may not uniformly buffer against the effects of peer stress exposure and highlight differential effects for different PVS measures. Future research across multiple units of analysis is needed to elucidate the complex pathway to PVS-related psychopathology during this critical developmental stage.

چکیده: نوجوانی با بازآرایی اجتماعی به سوی همسالان، افزایش مواجهه با عوامل استرس‌زای بین‌فردی و آسیب‌پذیری نسبت به آسیب‌شناسی روانی همراه است. پژوهش حاضر به بررسی اثرات بالقوه محافظتی روابط والد-فرزند با کیفیت بالا (PCR) بر ارتباط بین مواجهه با استرس همسالان و چندین شاخص عملکرد سامانه‌های ارزش‌گذاری مثبت (PVS) پرداخت. این مطالعه شامل ۱۶۵ نوجوان ۹ تا ۱۶ ساله (۸۱ دختر، میانگین سنی = ۱۱٫۹۳، ۷۸٫۱۸٪ سفیدپوست) بود. مصاحبه‌هایی برای گردآوری داده‌ها درباره کیفیت PCR و میزان مواجهه با استرس همسالان انجام شد. نوجوانان حساسیت پاداش خود را به صورت خودگزارش‌دهی بیان کردند و حساسیت رفتاری به پاداش از طریق یک الگوی یادگیری پاداش استخراج شد. مثبت‌گرایی پاداش (RewP) در طول سه تکلیف با استفاده از محرک‌های پاداش پولی، اجتماعی و غذایی ثبت شد. برخلاف پیش‌بینی‌ها، نوجوانانی که PCR با کیفیت بالاتری داشتند، در صورت گزارش سطوح بالای مواجهه با استرس همسالان، RewP پولی کاهش‌یافته (β = ۰٫۱۷، p = ۰٫۰۲۰) و حساسیت رفتاری به پاداش کاهش‌یافته (β = ۰٫۱۵، p = ۰٫۰۴۰) نشان دادند. هیچ تعامل معناداری با سایر شاخص‌ها به عنوان پیامد مشاهده نشد. نتایج نشان می‌دهد که PCR با کیفیت بالا لزوماً به طور یکنواخت در برابر اثرات مواجهه با استرس همسالان نقش محافظتی ایفا نمی‌کند و بر تفاوت اثرات بر شاخص‌های مختلف PVS تأکید دارد. پژوهش‌های آینده با استفاده از واحدهای تحلیلی چندگانه برای روشن ساختن مسیر پیچیده آسیب‌شناسی روانی مرتبط با PVS در این مرحله بحرانی رشد ضروری است.
