Maternal communication styles and adolescent psychological hardiness: a study of senior high school students

The family is a primordial educational institution, shaping the intellectual models and behavioral orientations of individuals. This influence is exerted through ongoing communication between parents and children. From the earliest age, daily interaction within the family helps to forge individual perceptions of the family communication pattern. Mother-child interaction is of particular importance. It evolves, develops and diversifies as the child grows, playing a crucial role in his or her cognitive and emotional development. Daily communication within the family has a direct impact on the personality and psychological structure of each individual.
