The impact of parent's development styles on personality-building

Abstract

In this work we presented an original graphic representation of a two-dimensional developmental interaction style in which the positive and negative dimensions of emotionality are shown on the abscissa (x coordinates) and the positive and negative dimensions of behavioral control are shown on the "y" coordinate. The development of positive and negative emotionality and positive and negative character traits are shown in the development quadrants and each development quadrant represents a developmental interaction style that differently develops positive or negative emotional traits and positive or negative character traits as well as other positive or negative developmental competences. The first development quadrant (++) develops emotional warmth and positive character traits (responsibility). The second developmental quadrant (-+) develops emotional coldness and responsibility. The third development quadrant (-) develops emotional coldness and irresponsibility and the fourth developmental style (+ -) develops emotional warmth (protection) and indulgence and irresponsibility. Each of these development styles differently (positively or negatively) develops different developmental competences with which the personality will develop and interact with the environment.
