Impact of parenting styles on adolescents' self-esteem and internalization of values in Spain
2007
The relationship of parenting styles with adolescents' outcomes was analyzed within a sample of Spanish adolescents. A sample of 1456 teenagers from 13 to 16 years of age, of whom 54.3% were females, reported on their parents' child-rearing practices. The teenagers' parents were classified into one of four groups (authoritative, authoritarian, indulgent, or neglectful). The adolescents were then contrasted on two different outcomes: (1) priority given to Schwartz's self-transcendence (universalism and benevolence) and conservation (security, conformity, and tradition) values and (2) level of self-esteem (appraised in five domains: academic, social, emotional, family and physical).

Creativity in Middle Childhood: Influence of Perceived Maternal Sensitivity, Self-esteem, and Shyness
2016
This study aimed to examine the relationship between maternal sensitivity and affect, as perceived by the child, and childhood creativity. Self-esteem and shyness were considered mediating factors. A total of 151 elementary school pupils were tested on verbal and pictorial creativity, self-esteem, and perceived maternal affect and sensitivity. Their teachers assessed each child’s shyness in their relations at school. A Multiple Indicators and Multiple Causes (MIMIC) model of the causal relationships among the study’s variables was tested. Results supported this theoretical model of causality. Maternal sensitivity had a significant, direct, positive effect on self-esteem, and a direct negati…

Il legame di attaccamento ai genitori e ai pari come predittore dell’autostima e dell’ego-resiliency.
2017
The aim of this study was to analyse the relationship between the quality of attachment relationships with parents and peers on the one hand, and ego-resiliency and self- esteem on the other hand. The present research was conducted with a group of 218 students (male = 101) aged from 11 to 19 years (M = 14.43, DS = 2.60). The results emphasize that (a) self-esteem is positively associated only with security of attachment to the mother, (b) ego-resil- iency is positively associated with security of attachment both to mother and peers, and (c) boys seem to have higher levels of self-esteem and ego-resiliency than girls.
Promuovere l'autostima, l'autoefficacia e lo stile decisionale a scuola attraverso la scrittura espressiva
2015
Esprimere in forma scritta le proprie emozioni positive quando si pensa ai propri obiettivi di vita fa bene alla salute. È questa la conclusione cui è giunta laura King dopo aver analizzato gli effetti della trascrizione del proprio miglior sé proiettato nel futuro. James W. Pennebaker, pioniere della scrittura espressiva sperimentata secondo la modalità retrospettiva, ha invece sottolineato gli effetti sulla salute della scrittura di emozioni negative connesse ad episodi traumatici vissuti nel passato. Nel presente studio, si sono presi in considerazione i contributi dei due ricercatori per confrontare gli effetti della trascrizione delle paure e delle speranze riguardo al futuro su tre co…

Dystopian fiction in English: a corpus-driven analysis of esteem in Veronica Roth’s "Divergent" trilogy
2020
In light of the recent wave of popularity of dystopian fiction for young adults, and in particular of Veronica Roth’s trilogy Divergent, research has begun to focus on this subgenre. However, the focus tends to be on educational and gender approaches to the novels, while the psychological aspects of the characters have been largely ignored. My study focuses on the representation of esteem and self-esteem in the trilogy through an analysis based on annotation. The results shed light on the factors that affect the protagonist’s role and self-representation.
