| description | © 2017 by the authors. The detrimental impact of poverty on child behavioral problems is well-established, but the mechanisms that explain this relationship are less well-known.

The results show that certain parenting styles, such as psychological control, as well as mothers’ life satisfaction partially mediate the correlation between poverty and child behavioral problems. |
