Abstract

The present study was designed to examine the relationship between the adolescents' and mothers' perceptions of maternal child-rearing practices. Both the adolescents and their mothers completed questionnaires containing modified forms of several Bronfenbrenner and Schaefer parental behavior scales. The results indicated that in several areas of maternal child-rearing practices there was substantial agreement between the mother and child; however, in a few areas there was low to moderate agreement.
