Abstract

The present study examined individual and environmental factors that are linked to resilience in a sample of rural Midwestern Latinx early adolescents in the United States (N = 123, mean age = 11.53 years; 56.9% female). Using resilience theory and the Positive Youth Development (PYD) framework, we examined the associations of mothers’ and fathers’ positive parenting to early adolescents’ (EAs) effortful control and resilience across two time points, and examined bidirectional relations between effortful control and resilience. Using structural equation modeling, we found positive concurrent associations at Time 1 (T1) between mothers’ positive parenting and EAs’ effortful control and resilience. Fathers’ T1 positive parenting was positively associated with EAs’ T1 effortful control, but not their resilience. Although mothers’ positive parenting was not longitudinally associated with EA resilience, fathers’ T1 positive parenting was associated with EAs’ resilience at Time 2 (T2). Positive concurrent associations between effortful control and resilience were found at both time points; however, bidirectional effects were not significant. Our results suggest that resources such as positive parenting and effortful control have important implications for positive youth development in ethnic minority EAs.
