Abstract
Self-regulation ability is important for developing and maintaining organized behavior. These skills participate in several tasks and help an individual to perform better. Parental influence can shape children’s behavior and have further effects on their self-regulation ability. This research focuses on the interaction between parenting style and children’s self-regulation skills in China. All studies were based on scales. Self-regulation Questionnaire and Parenting style scale were used to determine the different factors in this research. In addition, other questions evaluating family status and child academic performance are added. 146 effective responses were received. Children with authoritative parents show a higher self-regulation ability. While authoritarian and neglect parents may contribute to the low self-regulation ability of the child. Whereas, Gender shows no significant difference in these skills. And mother shows a greater influence on the child than the father. Further research is needed to study self-regulation and child development deeply.
