Child-rearing attitudes of subjects who vary in guilt.
The present study sought to determine whether high- and low-guilt Ss differ in their child-rearing attitudes. High-guilt Ss were found to be more likely to prefer an overprotective orientation combined with harsh punitive control. In general, attitudes of the high-guilt Ss were seen as more likely to produce psychological disturbance in their children.
