This study was designed to explore the longitudinal relations among parenting, internalizing symptoms, and different forms of prosocial behavior in Turkish children. The study tracked 293 mothers and their preschool-aged children (48% girls, M age = 49 months) over 3 years. Mothers reported on their parenting practices, including demands for obedience, warmth, and inductive reasoning when children were 4 years old. They reported children’s intern…

Basic Psychological Needs Satisfaction and Frustration Scale (BPNSFS): A Turkish Adaptation Study
This two‐wave study aimed to adapt the Basic Psychological Needs Satisfaction and Frustration Scale (BPNSFS) to the Turkish language and cultural context. At Time 1, participants included 1033 Turkish high school students ( M age = 15.91, SD = 0.36; 41.9% female) from 26 public schools located in Ankara, Türkiye. At Time 2, 849 students continued to participate in the study. A series of CFA provided support to the originally proposed six‐factor s…
Longitudinal relations between early prosocial behaviors toward parents and later prosocial and aggressive behaviors in Turkish early adolescents
Because Turkish early adolescents learn and practice many essential prosocial behaviors (i.e., helping, sharing) within the family context, it is important to examine whether early adolescents' prosocial behaviors toward parents at age 10 (Time 1) were related to their later prosocial and aggressive behaviors at age 13 (Time 3) via perceived parental psychological control at age 12 (Time 2). Participants were 355 early adolescents ( M age = 9.89 …
Procrastination, perceived maternal psychological control, and structure in math class: The intervening role of academic self‐concept
Do students procrastinate less when their parents psychologically press them to study? Or do they show procrastination when classroom environment lacks structure? In this study, we aimed to investigate to what extent perceived maternal psychological control and perceived classroom structure in math class relate to adolescents' academic procrastination in math via adolescents’ academic self‐concept in math. Three hundred fifty‐three adolescents ( …
The intergenerational similarity of social value orientations in adolescents and emerging adults: Variable-centered and person-centered approaches
The current study examined the intergenerational similarity of middle adolescents’ and emerging adults’ social value orientations (SVO) using different variable-centered and person-centered approaches and whether perceived parental autonomy support and conditional regard would play a role in similarity. The sample consisted of 218 middle adolescents (ages 14–15, eighth and ninth grades) and 219 emerging adults (ages 19–25, attending university) a…
Factors Influencing Children's Appraisals of Interparental Conflict: The Role of Parent-Child Relationship Quality
The cognitive contextual model proposes that children's appraisals of interparental conflict (IPC) can influence their adjustment. In addition, previous research revealed that interparental disputes may reflect on parent-child relationship that is linked with children's self-blame and threat appraisals concerning IPC. However, there is a scarcity of research directly addressing the intervening role of the parent-child relationship on children's a…
The antecedents of social value orientation among Turkish adolescents and emerging adults
The current correlational study examined the individual (self-regulation) and social (self-construal, parental practices) antecedents of social value orientations (SVO) among middle adolescents and emerging adults. The sample consisted of randomly selected 218 middle adolescents (ages 14-15) and 219 emerging adults (ages 19-25) and their parents in a metropolitan area of Ankara, Turkey. The results revealed that emerging adults have more prosocia…
Longitudinal relations among parenting daily hassles, child rearing, and prosocial and aggressive behaviors in Turkish children
The present study was designed to examine the longitudinal relations between parenting daily hassles and young children's later prosocial and aggressive behaviors, as well as the mediating role of parenting practices in a non‐Western society. The final sample was 159 middle class Turkish school age children (45.3% girls, M age = 84.69 months, 76.9% from public school, 23.1% from private school in Bolu, Ankara, and İstanbul) and their mothers. Ove…
Individualism-collectivism and conceptualizations of interpersonal relationships among Turkish children and their mothers
This study examined children's, adolescents', and their mothers' individualistic-collectivistic (I-C) tendencies. Specifically, we investigated relationships among mothers' and children's socioeconomic characteristics and their I-C responses to interpersonal conflict situations. Participants were 240 students (from fifth, eighth, and tenth grades) and their mothers. To measure I-C tendencies, we used six hypothetical scenarios depicting interpers…
