abstract="Negative parenting practices are thought to be essential for the development of adolescents' internalizing problems. However, mechanisms linking parental practices to adolescents' internalizing problems remain poorly understood. A potential pathway connecting parental behaviors to internalizing problems could be through adolescent expressive suppression--the tendency to inhibit the observable expression of emotions.This study examined the indirect effects of three individual parenting practices--poor monitoring, inconsistent discipline and use of corporal punishment--on adolescents' internalizing problems through adolescents'regular use of expressive suppression in a sample of 1132 adolescents (10-14 years). Structural Equation Modeling indicated that parenting practices were related both directly and indirectly to adolescents' internalizing problems through their relationship with suppression. Clinical implications and future directions are discussed.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
