Maternal and paternal psychological control and adolescents' negative adjustment: A dyadic longitudinal study in three countries.

Psychological Control (PC) interferes with autonomy-related processes in adolescence and has a negative impact on adolescents' development related to internalizing and externalizing problems. Several scholars suggested that PC can be used differently by mothers and fathers. However, these diffe...
