| Abstract: | Background: Research on how parenting influences social withdrawal has reported inconsistent findings, partly due to the tendency to examine parenting dimensions in isolation and the varying effects of cultural contexts on these relationships. Objective: This study identified distinct parenting profiles within the Korean context by analyzing eight parenting dimensions (i.e., intrusiveness, over-expectation, inconsistency, abuse, neglect, affection, monitoring, and reasoning) and their relation to social withdrawal trajectories from late childhood to early adolescence. Methods: Latent profile analysis (LPA) and latent growth modeling (LGM) were conducted using Mplus 8.4 on data from 1,893 children in the KYCPS (Waves 4, 6, and 7). Results: Three parenting profiles were identified: Controlling but Affectionate Parenting (CA Parenting), Moderately Directive and Neglectful Parenting (MDN Parenting), and Warm and Attentive Parenting (WA Parenting). Children in the MDN Parenting group showed persistently high levels of social withdrawal. The WA Parenting group demonstrated lower initial levels with minimal increases over time whereas the CA Parenting group exhibited a significant increase in social withdrawal during adolescence despite initially low levels. Conclusions: While high parental involvement may appear beneficial in childhood, inadequate support for autonomy can lead to increased social withdrawal over time. These findings suggest the importance of balancing parental control with autonomy support to reduce social withdrawal during adolescence. |
