Abstract

Roditeljsko ponašanje predstavlja zaštitni, odnosno rizičan faktor razvoja teškoća u psihosocijalnom funkcioniranju pojedinca. Posljednjih godina sve više pažnje usmjerava se na ulogu oca u predviđanju dobrobiti djeteta. U ovome istraživanju sudjelovalo je 259 očeva s područja Varaždinske i Osječko-baranjske županije, prosječne dobi 45,04 godine (uz SD = 5,40). Samoprocjene očeva uparene su s procjenama dobrobiti djeteta od strane učitelja te je na taj način obuhvaćeno 258 učenika 6. razreda osnovnih škola, odnosno 141 djevojčice i 117 dječaka prosječne dobi 12,59 godina. Podaci su prikupljeni u sklopu projekta Hrvatske zaklade za znanost Dobrobit djeteta u kontekstu obitelji (CHILD-WELL). Korišten je URP29 upitnik kao mjera roditeljskog ponašanja (roditeljska podrška i restriktivna kontrola), kojeg su ispunjavali očevi te SDQ upitnik kao mjera dobrobiti djeteta, odnosno snaga (prosocijalno ponašanje) i teškoća (emocionalni problemi i problemi u ponašanju), kojeg su ispunjavali učitelji. Dobiveni rezultati ukazuju na to kako se dječaci i djevojčice razlikuju u dobrobiti. Dječaci imaju izraženije probleme u ponašanju od djevojčica, a djevojčice se ponašaju prosocijalnije u odnosu na dječake. Vezano uz roditeljsko ponašanje očeva, utvrđeno je kako očevi više restriktivne kontrole iskazuju prema dječacima negoli djevojčicama, no jednako topline prema dječacima i djevojčicama. Nadalje, utvrđeno je kako je roditeljska podrška očeva značajan pozitivan prediktor emocionalnih problema, kojim se objašnjava 2,2% varijance emocionalnih problema te da je restriktivna kontrola očeva značajan negativan prediktor prosocijalnog ponašanja, kojim se objašnjava 1,9% varijance prosocijalnog ponašanja. U konačnici, dobiveni rezultati ukazuju na neznačajni moderatorski efekt spola djeteta u predviđanju dobrobiti djeteta temeljem očevih karakteristika i roditeljskih ponašanja.

Abstract (english)

Parental behavior is a protective or risk factor in the developmental of difficulties in the psychosocial functioning of an individual. In recent years more attention has been focused on the role of the father in predicting the child's well-being. In this study participated 259 fathers from Varaždinska and Osječko-baranjska county. The self-assessments of the fathers were paired with the assessments of the child's well-being, fulfilled by the teachers. In this way, 258 students of the 6th grade of primary schools were included, i.e. 141 girls and 117 boys. The data were collected as part of the Croatian Science Foundation's Child Well-being in the Family Context project (CHILD-WELL). The URP29 questionnaire was used as a measure of parental behavior (parental support and restrictive control), which was completed by fathers, and the SDQ questionnaire was used as a measure of the child's well-being, apropos strengths (prosocial behavior) and difficulties (emotional and behavioral problems), which was completed by the teachers. The results indicate that boys and girls differ in well-being. Boys have more pronounced behavior problems than girls, and girls behave more prosocially than boys. Regarding the characteristics and parental behavior of fathers, it was found that fathers show more restrictive control towards boys than girls, but equally warmth towards boys and girls. Furthermore, it was determined that parental support was a significant positive predictor of emotional problems, which explained 2.2% of the variance of emotional problems, and that restrictive control was a significant negative predictor of prosocial behavior, which explained 1.9% of the variance of prosocial behavior. Ultimately, the obtained results indicate an insignificant moderating effect of the child's gender in predicting the child's well-being based on the father's characteristics and the parents' behavior.
