Chapter 5 160 perceived parental psychological control predicted adolescents’ positive affect the next day, but not vice versa (parent-driven effect). Conversely, in 15.5% (n = 24), adolescent positive affect predicted parental psychological control, but not the other way around (adolescent-driven effect). In the remaining 27.1% (n = 42), no day-to-day effects were found between parental psychological control and adolescents’ positive affect.

Among the families with reciprocal effects (23.2%), displayed is the number who showed one of the four qualitatively different cycles. + = positive effect size. - = negative effect size.
