Erfassung von elterlicher bedingter Wertschätzung im Lern- und Leistungsbereich und im Bereich der Emotionsregulation

Eine deutschsprachige Adaptation der Parental Conditional Regard Scale (PCR-D)

Published Online:August 03, 2017https://doi.org/10.1026/0049-8637/a000172

Abstract

Zusammenfassung. Elterliche bedingte Wertschätzung ist eine weit verbreitete Erziehungsstrategie zur Förderung erwünschten kindlichen Verhaltens im Lern- und Leistungskontext und im Kontext der Emotionsregulation. Hierbei bringen Eltern ihren Kindern mehr Wertschätzung als üblich entgegen, wenn diese erwünschtes Verhalten zeigen, und entziehen Wertschätzung, wenn diese unerwünschtes Verhalten zeigen. Da bedingte Wertschätzung sowohl mit der psychosozialen Anpassung (z. B. dem Selbstwert und der Emotionsregulation) als auch mit der Schulleistung negative Zusammenhänge aufweist, ist es notwendig über ein diagnostisches Instrument zu verfügen, mit dem elterliche bedingte Wertschätzung erfasst werden kann. In der vorliegenden Studie wurde erstmalig eine deutsche Adaptation der Parental Conditional Regard Scale (PCR; Roth, Assor, Niemiec, Ryan & Deci, 2009) zwei Stichproben von Jugendlichen (N = 144; N = 293) im Alter von 10 bis 17 Jahren vorgelegt. Für die PCR-D zeigten sich die erwartete Faktorenstruktur, sehr gute interne Konsistenzen und akzeptable Retest-Reliabilitäten. Die PCR-D korrelierte erwartungskonform mit konstruktnahen Kriterien wie dem Selbstwert, der Emotionsregulation sowie Schulnoten und erwies sich als messinvariant bei Jungen und Mädchen.


Measuring Parental Conditional Regard in the Domains of Academic Achievement and Emotion Regulation: A German-Language Adaptation of the Parental Conditional Regard Scale

Abstract. Parental conditional regard is a widely used parenting practice to foster desired child behavior in the domains of academic achievement and emotion regulation. This practice involves parents providing more attention and affection than usual when their children enact desired behaviors or attributes and providing less attention and affection than usual when their children do not. However, since parental conditional regard is negatively associated with psychosocial adjustment (e. g., self-esteem and emotion regulation) as well as academic achievement, it is necessary to develop a diagnostic instrument that enables researchers to assess parental conditional regard. In the present study, we tested a German adaptation of the Parental Conditional Regard Scale (PCR; Roth, Assor, Niemiec, Ryan & Deci, 2009) in two samples of German adolescents (N = 144; N = 293; 10 – 17 years). Results revealed the expected factor structure, excellent internal consistencies, and acceptable retest reliabilities. The German PCR revealed the expected correlations between parental conditional regard and important validity criteria, such as emotion regulation, self-esteem, and school grades. Tests of measurement invariance indicated no differences between boys and girls.
