Socializing Children and Parents in Families

  • Chapter
Handbook of Marriage and the Family

Abstract

The classical scientific approach for understanding human social development has been to isolate particular phenomena, examine their components, and identify cause-effect patterns. This tradition, often referred to as positivism, has dominated the study of parent-child relationships in recent decades (Peterson & Rollins, 1987; Stafford & Bayer, 1993). Until quite recently, research on this fundamental aspect of family life was conceptualized largely in isolation from its social context, with parents being viewed as the “socializers and shapers” of the young (Arnett, 1995; Baumrind, 1978; Collins & Repinski, 1994; Maccoby & Martin, 1983; Rollins & Thomas, 1979; Stafford & Bayer, 1993). During the past 2 decades, however, more comprehensive models of the parent-child relationship have received substantial attention (Maccoby, 1992; Peterson & Rollins, 1987).
