What does pausing before I respond feel like from my teenager’s side?

The authors examine maternal warmth as a proposed link between mindful parenting and adolescent emotional difficulties.

Who was studied?

168 mother-child pairs participating in the study

Age / stage: Adolescence

Read with three questions

  1. How did the authors investigate maternal warmth as a proposed link between mindful parenting and adolescent emotional difficulties?
  2. What other family or child characteristics could account for the observed pattern?
  3. Does the proposed sequence from mindful parenting through warmth require assumptions about timing?

Keep the limits in view

An indirect association among three measured constructs cannot identify the order in which family changes occurred.
