Цифровая родительская медиация и ее связь с показателями психологического благополучия детей школьного возраста
Digital parental mediation has emerged as a result of the increasing popu- larity of electronic technologies and their active use in the education of children. Recent research on digital parental mediation highlights the various characteristics that define parental support and control over a child’s digital activity. This study isaimed at determining the relationship between digital parental mediation (paren- tal control and parental support) and the psychological well-being (self-satisfaction and subjective happiness) of adolescents. The characteristics of digital mediation (control and support) are assumed to have opposing effects on the psychological well-being of schoolchildren. The study sample consisted of 4,011 teenagers aged 13 to 15 (M = 14.07, SD = 0.76), 42% of whom were male. In the course of the study, the Digital Parental Mediation Questionnaire, the I myself scale from the questionnaire, the Multidimensional Scale of Student Life Satisfaction, and the Scale of Subjective Happiness were utilized. Statistical processing involved exploratory and confirmato- ry factor analyses, correlation and regression analyses. As a result, it was confirmed that parental control and support of a child’s digital activity are related, but their ef- fects on psychological well-being vary. Thus, parental support increases a teenager’s satisfaction and happiness, whereas parental control decreases them. This effect is more pronounced in younger adolescents.
