Resumo: Abstract: Parental attitudes toward child socialization influence their child-rearing practices, the quality of parent-child relationships, and children’s developmental outcomes. The Modified Child Rearing Practices Questionnaire (CRPR-Q) has been widely used to assess parenting practices across children’s development. However, the few studies investigating its two-factorial structure (nurturance and restrictiveness) have shown inconsistent findings and have not explored measurement invariance across children’s sex and age groups. The aims of this study were to (1) further investigate the factorial structure of the CRPR-Q, by using bifactor solutions (b-confirmatory factor analysis [B-CFA] and b-exploratory structural equation modeling [B-ESEM]) and (2) examine the measurement invariance of CRPR-Q across children’s sex and age groups. A community sample of 589 Portuguese mothers of children aged 3 to 15 years completed the CRPR-Q. Our findings revealed that the B-ESEM model best fit the data. A clear differentiation between the two a priori factors (nurturance and restrictiveness) was found. However, our findings suggest the need to control for content specificity and rely on a broader perspective regarding the nurturance factor. Measurement invariance was observed across children’s sex but not across children’s age groups. These findings contribute to a more in-depth understanding of the underlying relationships among the CRPR-Q items.

O Modified Child Rearing Practices Questionnaire (CRPR-Q) tem sido um instrumento amplamente utilizado para avaliar as práticas parentais no decurso do desenvolvimento das crianças. No entanto, os poucos estudos feitos para avaliar a sua estrutura fatorial, originalmente concebida como tendo dois fatores (suporte e restritividade), mostraram resultados inconsistentes e não foi explorada a invariância da medida entre os sexos e as idades. Os objetivos deste estudo foram (1) investigar de forma mais aprofundada a estrutura fatorial do CRPR-Q usando soluções estatísticas bifatoriais (bifator-confirmatory factor analysis [B-CFA] e bifactor-exploratory structural equation modeling [B-ESEM]) e (2) examinar a invariância de medida do CRPR-Q de acordo com o sexo e os grupos de idades das crianças. Uma amostra de 589 mães portuguesas com filhos de idades compreendidas entre os 3 aos 15 anos completou o CRPR-Q. Os nossos resultados revelaram que o modelo B-ESEM é o que melhor se ajusta aos dados. Verificou-se uma clara diferenciação entre os dois fatores estabelecidos a priori (suporte e restritividade). No entanto, os nossos resultados sugerem a necessidade de controlar a especificidade do conteúdo e ter uma perspetiva mais ampla em relação ao fator suporte. Foi confirmada a invariância do modelo relativamente ao sexo das crianças, mas não nas diferentes faixas etárias. Estes resultados vêm contribuir para uma compreensão mais aprofundada deste instrumento de medida e da relação subjacente que existe entre os itens que compõe o CRPR-Q.This research has been supported in part by grants from the Portuguese Foundation for Science and Technology (FCT) (UIDB/04810/2020; SFRH/BD/134132/2017; 2020.01755.CEECIND)Edições ISPARepositório do ISPARibeiro, OlíviaGuedes, MaryseVeríssimo, ManuelaRubin, KennethSantos, António J.2022-02-10T16:41:27Z2021-122021-12-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10400.12/8547engRibeiro, O., Guedes, M., Veríssimo, M., Rubin, K.
