Abstract:

Helicopter parenting, defined as a form of overinvolved parenting of young adult children, is shown to be associated with young adult children’s well-being. Furthermore, the phenomenon of helicopter parenting is increasingly evident across various cultures. In this study, the association between helicopter parenting and young adult children’s well-being problems was examined, and the associations were compared between samples of American and Finnish young adults. With a sample of 441 American and 306 Finnish university students, results from path models suggested that maternal and paternal helicopter parenting was associated with university students’ symptoms of anxiety and depression, life dissatisfaction, and emotional dysregulation. Furthermore, even though the mean levels of helicopter parenting were lower among Finnish parents as compared with American parents, the associations between helicopter parenting and young adults’ well-being problems were, in general, equally significant. The implications for university students, parents of students, educators, and university administrators from different cultural backgrounds were also discussed.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Helicopter parenting is a phenomenon that is attracting sizable attention from university administrators and instructors. We examine the implications of helicopter parenting for both the political science classroom and for public opinion. Using a survey conducted at multiple universities in the United States, we find that helicopter parenting has a significant impact on the policy attitudes of college students. Specifically, students with helicopter parents are more likely to express support for both government surveillance and nanny state policies than are students without helicopter parents. Given the growing trend of helicopter parenting, these findings will likely have substantial implications for both the political science classroom and public opinion in the near future.

Abstract:

This study examined two potential mechanisms, competence and self-efficacy, that might account for the relationship between helicopter parenting and anxiety symptoms among female university students, and whether any mediating effects differed by parent gender. Structural equation modelling of data collected from 473 undergraduate students showed that both competence and self-efficacy mediated the association between paternal helicopter parenting and female university students’ anxiety symptoms. No mediation effect was found for maternal helicopter parenting. A comparison between paternal and maternal effects revealed that they differed significantly from each other. Specifically, associations between helicopter parenting and female university students’ competence and self-efficacy were much stronger for fathers than for mothers. Implications of the gender-specific findings are discussed in this article, and their importance for prevention and intervention are highlighted.

Abstract:

Helicopter parenting among parents of young adults has risen in the last few decades, especially in middle-class families, and is identified as a risk factor for offspring’s maladaptive adjustment. Using actor–partner interdependence modeling, this study investigated why mothers and fathers use helicopter parenting. More specifically, the study investigated how mothers’ and fathers’ characteristics (prevention focus, promotion focus, interpersonal regret, and self-regret) work together to predict their helicopter parenting. Questionnaires were collected from 96 families (mother, father, and young adults). The results revealed that higher levels of maternal and paternal prevention focus were related to higher levels helicopter parenting by mothers and fathers, respectively. In addition, higher levels of paternal interpersonal regret were associated with lower levels of helicopter parenting by fathers. Maternal prevention focus, promotion focus, and interpersonal regret were (indirectly) associated with paternal helicopter parenting. The results indicate that parental prevention and promotion focus may play a role in the etiology of helicopter parenting and may therefore be taken into account when addressing such parenting behavior. Further research is needed to deepen our understanding of the processes that shape the tendency to helicopter parent.

Abstract:

In this sexcerpt from their book, Love, Money, and Parenting: How Economics Explains the Way We Raise Our Kids, Matthias Doepke and Fabrizio Zilibotti discuss the phenomenon of helicopter parenting, in which parents spend more time monitoring their kids’ activities. They present empirical evidence for a rise in parental involvement and suggest that greater income inequality and the related higher stakes surrounding children’s educational success may be driving parents to be more attentive.

Abstract:

The concept of helicopter parenting is used to describe a parental disposition that is excessively child-oriented, intrusive and limiting to child’s autonomy. It is characterized by parents being overly concerned about child's future, making great efforts to avoid possible negative outcomes, preferring to plan and handle child’s life and even executing child’s tasks in his/her place. The objective of this study is to establish the relation between helicopter parental attitudes and ego inflation. The Perceived Helicopter Parental Attitude Scale and Ego Inflation Scale were applied to 432 people with an age group of 24-34 years. Hypotheses of the study were tested using structural equation modelling after results related to the fit values and factor loads of the scales were determined to be appropriate and adequate. The study found that 42.80 percent of the change in the inflated ego reported in young adults can be explained by a helicopter maternal attitude (R2 = .43). Helicopter paternal attitude accounted for 22.10 percent of the change in the inflated ego observed in young adults (R2 = .22). It has, thus, been demonstrated that ego inflation is triggered by helicopter parental attitudes and helicopter attitudes of mothers are more successful in creating ego inflation than those of fathers. We hope that the findings of the present study can be used in parent education and family counselling practices.

Abstract:

The current study will examine the dynamics among helicopter parenting, parent-child relationships, and college students’ psychosocial outcomes, such as self-esteem and depressive symptoms. Helicopter parenting is commonly defined as parental over-involvement to their children’s live, which can negatively affect children’s self-esteem and depressive symptoms since helicopter parenting, in general, is argued as not developmentally appropriate parenting for young adult children. However, the negative impact of helicopter parenting can be buffered when children have positive relationships with parents. Hence, the current study will examine whether college student’s self-esteem and depressive symptoms are affected by helicopter parenting and whether the parent-child relationships can moderate the link between helicopter parenting and college students’ self-esteem and depressive symptoms. The study uses about 208 undergraduate students at one of major universities in southern region in the U.S.

Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to examine the phenomenon of helicopter parenting and the motivation behind overinvolved parenting of college-aged children. The literature reviewed in this study includes factors that contribute to helicopter parenting in the higher education environment: Millennial characteristics, parental demographics, and technology. In addition, the privacy act, higher education rankings, and financial aid (i.e., tuition and enrolment management strategy), which contribute to the higher education environment, are discussed. Literature on why parents engage in helicopter parenting is limited. As such, this study helped to address this gap in research. Using a social constructivist approach, data were obtained using a qualitative, multi-instrument case study method. Five parents of female, undergraduate students at a Canadian university participated in the telephone interviews. This study found financial and emotional support were the foremost ways parents supported their children. Parents were motivated by their desire to offer guidance; need for connection and communication; and need to show and receive love. Parents who participated in parent programming offered by the university, regardless of the type of programming, found it to be beneficial. Future research is needed to study father-son dyads as well as explore the reciprocation of support, specifically emotional support, from students to parents.

Abstract:

abstract: With the establishment of the emerging adult developmental period and the rise of helicopter parents, attachment theory provides foundation for conceptualizing the continued involvement of helicopter parents in their emerging adults’ emotion regulation processes. This study utilized dyadic data from 66 emerging adult children and their helicopter parents to examine the association of helicopter parent-emerging adult communication in mitigating the associations between experiences of affect and stress. Specifically, the purpose of the present study was to use dyadic data to examine how communication within the helicopter parent-emerging adult relationship associates with emerging adults’ ability to regulate experiences of negative and positive affect. Both associations within the emerging adult and helicopter parent individually (actor effects) and how helicopter parents impact construct associations for emerging adults’ (partner effects) were considered. Two multilevel mediation models using Actor-Partner Interdependence Models were conducted to assess the relations between affect, stress, and helicopter parent-emerging adult communication quality for negative and positive affect separately. The positive direct effect between negative affect and stress was statistically significant for emerging adults, but not for helicopter parents, suggesting that, for emerging adults, higher perceptions of negative affect were associated with higher levels of stress. The direct and indirect effects for the mediation model examining actor and partner effects between negative affect, communication quality, and stress were non-significant for both emerging adults and helicopter parents. The direct effect between positive affect and stress was statistically significant for helicopter parents but not for emerging adults; however, the directionality of the significant association was positive and not as hypothesized. Finally, the direct and indirect effects for the mediation model examining actor and partner effects between positive affect, communication quality, and stress were non-significant for emerging adults and helicopter parents. Considerations for future studies examining aspects of attachment within emotion regulation for the helicopter parent-emerging adult relationship and the importance of considering relationship characteristics, such the relational characteristics of social support and conflict, are discussed.

Base on the current social phenomena, first of all, the study of this article provides an overview of what is known about helicopter parenting behavior both in the family and the classroom, trying to find out why it exists. Secondly, this article also discuss the pervasiveness of this issue and present a typology of the different levels of intensity of parental involvement, as well as ways in which the child may respond to such behaviors. And the child with such response may lead to the result of the Peter Pan syndrome of his own. Apart from two of those above, the study of this article is also highly focused on the learning achievements of children with Peter Pan syndrome of their own who are educated by helicopter parents. The analyzed data of this study is taken from 2005 Taiwan Education Panel Survey （TEPS）.The 2005 second grade senior high school students were used as sample, including 8836 students. The correlation analysis of the questionnaire data was by using SPSS statistical software. The results are as what follows: 1. The response of child with Peter Pan syndrome of his own does show highly remarkable difference with the helicopter parenting behavior from the other kind of parenting behaviors. 2. The effect of lower learning achievements due to the children with Peter Pan syndrome of their own who are educated by helicopter parents.

O presente trabalho apresenta o processo de desenvolvimento e os estudos psicométricos iniciais do Helicopter Parenting Instrument (HPI), um instrumento que avalia a perceção dos filhos em relação a comportamentos parentais inapropriados em relação à etapa desenvolvimental dos filhos. Participaram, neste estudo, 187 adultos emergentes, com idades compreendidas entre os 18 e os 25 anos. Os participantes responderam a um questionário de dados sociodemográficos, ao HPI, ao Inventário de Sintomas Psicopatológicos (BSI) para avaliar a sintomatologia ansiosa e depressiva; ao Inventário do Clima Familiar (ICF) para avaliar a coesão e o conflito familiares; e à Escala das Dimensões do Desenvolvimento Identitário (DIDS) para avaliar o desenvolvimento identitário. Foram analisadas as características psicométricas do HPI. O estudo da validade de constructo foi realizado através de uma análise fatorial confirmatória. A validade convergente foi analisada a partir das correlações entre o HPI e as dimensões do BSI, do ICF e da DIDS em estudo. O HPI apresentou valores de consistência interna satisfatórios e a estrutura fatorial proposta foi confirmada. Os resultados sugerem que o HPI é uma medida que pode ser utilizada para avaliar a parentalidade helicóptero em adultos emergentes portugueses.
The present study presents the developmental process and the initial psychometric studies of the Helicopter Parenting Instrument (HPI), an instrument that evaluates children's perception of parental behaviors inappropriate to their children's developmental stage. A total of 187 emerging adults, aged between 18 and 25, participated in this study. Participants answered to a questionnaire on socio-demographic data, HPI, Psychopathological Symptom Inventory (PSI); the Family Climate Inventory (ICF), and the Identity Development Dimension Scale (DIDS) to assess identity development. The psychometric characteristics of HPI were analyzed. The study of construct validity was performed through a confirmatory factorial analysis. The convergent validity was analyzed from the correlations between HPI, BSI, ICF and DIDS. HPI presented satisfactory internal consistency values and the proposed factorial structure was confirmed. The results suggest that HPI is a measure that can be used to evaluate helicopter parenting in Portuguese emergent adults.

Abstract:

Without a doubt, parents play a critical role in socializing moral development in their children. This handbook provides a collection of state-of-the-art theories and research on the important role that parents play in moral development. The contributors take a comprehensive, yet nuanced approach to considering the links between parenting and different aspects of moral development. The volume begins by providing an overview of traditional and contemporary theories on parenting and moral development, including perspectives related to parenting styles, domain theory, attachment theory, and evolutionary theory. In addition, there are several chapters that explore the genetic and biological influences related to parenting and moral development. The second section of the volume explores cultural and religious approaches to parenting and moral development and presents examples of contemporary research with diverse populations such as Muslim cultures and US Latino/as. The last major section of the volume examines recent developments and approaches to parenting, including chapters on topics such as helicopter parenting, proactive parenting, parent-child conversations and disclosure, parental discipline, and other parenting practices designed to foster moral development. Overall, the volume brings together the latest scholarship on parenting and moral development and lays out the next set of fundamental theoretical and empirical issues that will significantly advance the field. This volume is a must-read for scholars, practitioners, educators, students, and policy makers interested in the latest scholarly developments in the field of parenting and moral development.

Abstract:

Chapter 2 moves beyond nutritional discourse to consider the more social and emotional content of parents’ food talk. Much of this talk was oriented toward the concern to socialize and to train but not to overly limit children, project a negative adult persona, or come across as judgmental of others’ choices. The popular concept of the overprotective “helicopter parent” was an expression of these ambivalences, visible in national media and parenting blogs as well as in the ongoing commentaries of Atlanta parents; overattentiveness and food anxiety were seen as potentially negative influences on children. This chapter explores how food and feeding are wrapped up with models of personhood, that is, with conceptions of the kind of person one should be in order to be a good parent or a healthy child and socially attractive to others. In particular, it examines how power struggles around children’s food reflect ideas about individuality, relationships, and the fuzzy boundaries of the self.

Abstract:

This chapter is about the joys and anxieties of parenting on the move. It begins with the concept of “extreme parenting” to orient a discussion of what it means to parent in a risk society and in the face of an uncertain future. Parents in late modernity are often forced to make a trade-off between safety and freedom, with intensive or helicopter parenting falling at one extreme of this trade-off and worldschoolers’ free-range parenting style falling at the other. Parents on both ends of this continuum are motivated by a desire to secure their children’s future success; however, worldschooling upends conventional parenting culture by encouraging children to embrace “good risk” rather than avoiding risk altogether. The chapter details four strategies worldschooling parents use to frame risk as a good thing in order to foster their children’s sense of independence and self-reliance. At the same time, however, they actively cultivate these qualities within the context of family togetherness. This results in a paradox of “cultivated independence” where the intertwined goals of independence and self-reliance must be monitored and directed by parents who are carefully attuned to their individual children’s needs.

Abstract:

The “Parenting Post-9/11” chapter examines the environment that Generation Disaster’s caregivers created within the family microsystem throughout their childhood and adolescence, as parents are generally the most important developmental influence during those formative years. It then considers how this cohort’s parents were impacted by 9/11 and all of the subsequent societal changes, as well as their fears about children’s safety amid the rise in school shootings, and it demonstrates how children’s responses to stressful and traumatic events are closely correlated with their caregivers’ reactions. The chapter considers whether accusations of “helicopter parenting” by these caregivers are valid, and it examines the impact of smartphones and other technologies on the first group of parents and children that had to incorporate these tools into their family dynamics.

Abstract:

The authors distinguish between two modes of caregiving: providing and provisioning. Caregiving can be provided directly or provisioned—that is, arranged to be done by someone else. The authors further explain how people have providing ambition—they aspire to provide care directly—and provisioning ambition—they have aspirations concerning procuring care by others. This distinction and the key role of providing ambition are at the heart of work–care conflict and the tough choices that parents, especially, face about child care and fulfilling caregiving ambition. The authors discuss how many parents report that their providing ambition directly clashes with their work ambitions and how their preference is child care by relatives. They also consider how the providing–provisioning distinction helps to explain why child care became such a flashpoint for second-wave feminism and underlies many modern stereotypes of parenting, such as helicopter parents. Finally, they give readers the opportunity to rate their own providing and provisioning ambitions.

Abstract:

Abstract Aircraft system identification can either occur in the time-or frequency-domain with each approach having inherent advantages and disadvantages. For example, time-domain modelling generates superior time history matches and has a superior ability to achieve a trim solution. However, time-domain models do not provide a high degree of insight to the frequency responses of the system, which is important for control law development and for matching handling qualities for pilot-in-the-loop simulation — this is a strength of the frequency-domain approach. This paper utilises a Pareto optimization procedure to combine both the time- and frequency-domain approaches and exploit the strengths of both methods. Pareto fronts are generated for the system identification of a 6 degree-of-freedom forward flight model at 90 kts of the National Research Council of Canada’s Bell 412 helicopter. The generated Pareto fronts showed the necessity of balancing the time- and frequency-domain matches whereby moving from the compromise solution to either the isolated time- or frequency-domain solutions resulted in a small improvement in one while the other suffered relatively more. Accordingly, the multi-objective solution using Pareto optimization capitalized on the strengths of both approaches and avoided an overspecialized solution in either of the domains.

Abstract:

The paper demonstrates the successful application of an optimisation methodology for the design of a diffuser-ejector exhaust duct. Maximising simultaneously pressure recovery and the entrainment ratio are diverging objectives which could hardly be achieved by a conventional manual trial-and-error approach relying on the designer’s experience. This multi-objective design problem has been solved for the axis-symmetric exhaust duct with a given characteristic length, inlet section and minimal standoff distance by coupling a parametric method with 2D CFD analysis. Open cubic B-splines have been employed to generate the contoured duct shape, for which the control-point vertices have been defined by a total of 17 engineering parameters. A bell mouth inlet has been chosen for the ejector inlet. The parameter constraints result from weight and integration requirements. Three characteristic engine operating points have been chosen for the multi-point and multi-objective shape optimisation. The entire process of model building, meshing, performing the 2D CFD calculation and post-processing to extract the required metrics has been fully automated. A commercial process integration software package is used to link the different tools together in a unified environment. The design space exploration is carried out via a latin-hypercube sampling technique. This random space filling method has been chosen because of its considerable lower number of experiments compared to factorial sampling techniques. Parameter ranking is obtained by a weighted average of the correlation coefficients for each objective. The parameter hierarchy is slightly different for the engine operating points. However, there exists a clear threshold separating the influential parameters from the insignificant ones. A subsequent DOE is performed for the reduced parameter set for which the minimum number of experiments has been chosen as twice the number of experiments to generate a quadratic response surface. The Normal-Boundary Intersection method is applied to find the Pareto front based on the response surface model as surrogate model. The results show that a gain of 20% for the pressure recovery for a given entrainment ratio could be achieved compared to a configuration defined by a manual trial-and-error approach. The great benefit of the present method is its capability to handle easily geometrical constraints and the weight of the different design objectives which may change even during the detailed design phase.
