Title Odnos percepcije "helikopter" roditeljstva i prilagodbe mladih u razdoblju predodraslosti Title (english) The relationship between perceived "helicopter" parenting and young adults adjustment Author Iva Ilijić Mentor Ivana Macuka (mentor)Committee member Ivana Tucak Junaković (predsjednik povjerenstva)Committee member Irena Burić (član povjerenstva)Committee member Ivana Macuka (član povjerenstva)Granter University of Zadar Defense date and country 2020-03-05, Croatia Scientific / art field, SOCIAL SCIENCES Abstract Izraz tzv. helikopter roditeljstva se pojavio posljednjih godina s ciljem opisivanja roditelja koji kontroliraju svoju djecu na jedinstven način donoseći važne odluke umjesto svoje djece ili rješavajući probleme koje su njihova djeca sposobna riješiti. Ovakvo kontrolirajuće ponašanje roditelja posebno je teško odrasloj djeci koja su u razdoblju predodraslosti, budući da je to doba u kojem je iznimno važna autonomija i istraživanje različitih mogućnosti. Rezultati istraživanja u ovom području opisuju brojne korelate helikopter roditeljstva i prilagodbe mladih u razdoblju predodraslosti, među kojima su najčešće niže zadovoljstvo životom i viša zastupljenost depresivnih simptoma. Međutim, rezultati istraživanja doprinosa helikopter roditeljstva nisu konzistentni, te se često kao razlog navodi izraženost roditeljske topline u odnosu roditelja i djece, pored kontrole. Stoga je cilj ovog istraživanja utvrditi odnos percepcije helikopter roditeljstva i nekih mjera psihološke prilagodbe (zadovoljstva životom i depresivnosti) mladih u razdoblju predodraslosti uz kontroliranje dimenzije topline u odnosu roditelja i mladih. U sklopu istraživanja validirana su dva upitnika, Upitnik helikopter roditeljstva (Helicopter Parenting Scale, Padilla-Walker i Nelson, 2012) te Upitnik percepcije roditelja (Perceptions of Parents Scale, Grolnick, Ryan i Deci, 1991; Robbins, 1994) iz kojeg je korištena subskala procjene topline majki i očeva. U istraživanju je sudjelovalo ukupno 495 osoba u dobi od 18 do 25 godina, odnosno 431 djevojka i 64 mladića. Analize razlika ne potvrđuju razlike u procjenama helikopter roditeljstva očeva i majki i depresivnosti kod mladića i djevojaka, ali djevojke percipiraju više razine topline roditelja i navode više razine zadovoljstva životom u odnosu na mladiće. I mladići i djevojke percipiraju više razine majčinog helikopter roditeljstva i topline u odnosu na očeve. Procjene topline roditelja (ali ne i helikopter roditeljstva) značajno koreliraju sa zadovoljstvom životom i depresivnosti mladih. Testiranjem moderatorske uloge topline majki i očeva utvrđeno je da jedino procjena očeve topline moderira odnos helikopter roditeljstva očeva i depresivnosti na poduzorku djevojaka.
Abstract (english) The expression helicopter parenting has, for some time, been used for describing parents who control their children in unique ways, by making important decisions for them and solving their problems. This sort of controlling parenting is especially hard for emerging adult children, considering this is a time when autonomy and exploring possibilities is very important. Research in this area has been focused on exploring different relationships helicopter parenting has with different child adjustment indicators, most notably lower life satisfaction and higher depression. However, findings in this field have not been consistent. One of the proposed reasons for the inconsistency is the moderating presence of parental warmth in helicopter parenting practices. The goal of this research is to determine the relationship between perception of helicopter parenting and some measures of child adjustment (depression and life satisfaction) while taking into consideration levels of parental warmth. As part of the research, Helicopter Parenting Scale (Padilla-Walker i Nelson, 2012) and Perception of Parents Scale (Rollick, Ryan i Deci, 1991; Robbins, 1994, out of which) were validated. All together, 495 emerging adults between the ages of 18 and 25 participated in the survey, out of which 431 were female. No differences were found between males and females in levels of depression and the perception of their mothers' and fathers' helicopter parenting, but the results did show that females perceive higher levels of parental warmth and are more satisfied with their life than males. Both genders perceive higher levels of maternal helicopter parenting and warmth in relation to paternal. Parental warmth (but not helicopter parenting) estimates correlate significantly with young adult life satisfaction and depression. Examining the role of parental warmth as a moderator showed that only paternal warmth moderated the relationship between paternal helicopter parenting and depression in young adult females.
