SAMANIEGO, Virginia Corina. Parental tolerance scale towards infant behavior. rev.latinoam.psicol. [online]. 2010, vol.42, n.2, pp.203-214. ISSN 0120-0534.
It was hypothesized that there is differential parenting tolerance towards children behavior. We defined the parental tolerance construct as a complex variable that includes some socio-cognitive variables as attributions, emotions and parenting styles. The purpose of this research was to evaluate the empirical basis for the parental tolerance towards children behavior construct as well as to develop and validate a scale. The dimensions included in the scale were intent, dispositional attribution, attribution of responsibility, anger, anxiety, expectation of resistance, forcefulness, verbosity, laxness and over reactivity. Factor analysis showed that three of the factors explained 40% of the variance. Factors were called affective behavioral reactive, non-permissive attributive and attributive. Reliability was assessed using the Cronbach alpha coefficient (alpha.74). These results provide a strong empirical support for the hypothesized construct.
