Abstract:
Objective:To explore the characteristic of parenting style and its relationship with self congruence in Tibet middle school students.Methods:Totally 1149 Tibet students in 2 middle schools were investigated by the Scale of EMBU (Egma Minnen av Bardndosnauppforstran)and SCCS (Self Consistency and Congruence Scale) from counties resided mainly by Tibet people.Results:The total average scores of Tibet students'self-congruence were lower than the median[(2.8 ± 0.3) < median 3].There was no significant difference between genders [(2.6 ±0.3)vs.(2.7 ±0.4),P >0.05],and the scores of self flexibility had statistical significant difference in gender [(2.9 ±0.5)vs.(2.8 ±0.5),P <0.05].The scores of parenting style in positive elements were negatively correlated with self congruence in Tibet middle school students (r =-0.20,P <0.01 ).Multi-linear regression showed that the element of maternal emotion and understanding had negative relevance with SCCS(β=-0.16,P <0.01),while the element of maternal rejection and denial had positive relevance with SCCS(β=0.16,P <0.01) .Conclusion:It indicates that the level of self-congruence is higher than median,and that parenting style might have a certain relationship with self congruence in Tibet middle school students.
