Hi I'm looking for suggestions for self-report measures of parents perceived self-confidence or self-efficacy in their abilities to handle their child's behaviors. Particularly looking for measures that can be used in reference to adolescents or older children. And particularly looking for measures that capture how capable parents feel when it comes to managing/helping children's problem behaviors. References to substance use or trouble-making behavior a bonus. I've been mainly referred to the Parent Sense of Self-Competency scale, but find this focuses too broadly on the competence of being a parent in general, and lacks the specificity on child behaviors. Any recommendations appreciated. Thank you in advance!
As a parent I normally monitor?
The mood change of a teenager when told you are not going to the market?
The amount of time the child spends on the phone instead of reading.
The amount of hours spend sitting on tv listening soaps and not news.
To measure myself confidence is through
The number of positive compliments I tell other children to copy from the older one.
Also the way I communicate to the teenage, if it is harsh it means my confidence is low but if it is not, it means I have much confidence.
