Abstract

Self-concept is a person¿s perception of their physical self in the context of their life experiences. This study is aimed at getting to know the relationship between mothers¿ and fathers¿ teenager-perceived parenting style, on one hand, and each of the dimensions of physical self-concept (physical endurance, general self-esteem, coordination, general physical self-concept, etc.) Six hundred 12-18- year-old students from 12 secondary education centres took part in this research. The «Parental Bonding Instrument» by Parker, Tupling & Brown (1979), as well as a shortened version of the «Physical Self Description Questionnaire» by Marsh, Martin & Jackson (2010), were used. Factor analysis was completed to assess response validity. Besides, multivariate and univariate variance analyses were used to identify which physical self-concept dimensions differ according to parent educational approach and teenager gender. Results show that 33.7, 16.8, 17.1 and 32.4% of the mothers were perceived by teenagers as permissive, democratic, negligent and authoritarian, respectively. Among fathers, these values were 32.0, 19.2, 15.7 and 33.1%, respectively. In general, higher values associated to the 11 dimensions of the physical self-concept were observed among boys than girls. The lowest values were found among teenagers who perceive authoritarian style in their parents¿ educational style. Therefore, teenagers who perceive a permissiveness parenting style are concluded to get better physical self-concept results than those who perceive an authoritative parenting style. Besides, the possible negative impact of neglecting and authoritative styles on physical selfconcept is observed to be stronger among mothers than fathers. The implications that lack of affection and excessive control may have on the formation of appropriate self-concept in teenagers are discussed.
