AERA Online Paper Repository, Paper presented at the Annual Meeting of the American Educational Research Association (Chicago, IL, Apr 13-16, 2023 and Virtual, May 4-5, 2023)
Associations between dimensions of social creativity (i.e., Peer Influence, Problem-Solving Quality, Social Initiative, Social Ability, and Interpersonal Self-Confidence) and parenting styles, including Emotional Warmth, Strictness and Punishment, Overinvolvement, Favouring Subject, and Rejection, were investigated among 823 Chinese middle school students. The impacts of having siblings and parents' education on social creativity were also examined. Results showed that parents' "Emotional Warmth" was positively associated with dimensions of social creativity. In contrast with findings from western samples, Chinese Mothers' "Strictness and Punishment" was positively associated with children's "Interpersonal Self-Confidence." Mothers' "Favouring Subject" and "Rejection" were negatively associated with students' "Social Initiative" and "Interpersonal Self-Confidence", respectively. Students with siblings showed higher social creativity; parents' education was not associated with students' social creativity.
