What is the article about?
A
The study drew on prospective, longitudinal data to test the hypothesis that the intergenerational transmission of positive parenting is mediated by competence in subsequent relationship with peers and romantic partners. Results indicated that supportive parenting during adulthood was predicted by observed maternal sensitivity during the first 3 years of life, even after controlling for several factors. Moreover, the intergerenational association in parenting was mediated by later competence in relationships with peers and romantic partners.
