Title: Low Self-control and Deviance: Examining the Moderation of Social Support from Parents
Author: Higgins, George E.
Boyd, Rebecca J.
Appeared in: Deviant behavior
Paging: Volume 29 (2008) nr. 4 pages 388-410
Year: 2008-05
Contents: Drawing on self-report survey data from a sample of 425 college students in 2001, this study examines whether parental support can moderate the link between low self-control and deviance. Using multiple measures of low self-control and parental support and item parcels of deviance, structural equation models are developed to arrive at the results. Results reveal that parental support does not completely moderate the link between low self-control and deviance. Importantly, we find that parental support can reduce the link that low self-control has with deviance, suggesting that this is a measure that may be manipulated to reduce instances of deviance.
