Overview

Longitudinal study examines household chaos effects on parenting behaviors in 696 parents, suggesting self-control and emotional states play key roles.

Key Points

  • HOUSEHOLD CHAOS negatively impacts parenting behavior through diminished self‐control.
  • Emotional distress mainly affects inconsistent discipline, not positive parenting.
  • Data from 696 parents were analyzed using structural equation modeling to explore mediation models.
  • Improving parents' self‐control can enhance consistent discipline and reduce parenting challenges.
