ABSTRACT

This study aims to identify whether unique anxiety profiles in school-age children and parents exist, and to determine whether these profiles differ from each other based on anxiety control beliefs (ACB) and parenting behavior. A total of 265 children (C) in grades 4 to 6 and their mother (M) and father (F) participated in this study. Latent profile analysis (LPA) revealed three anxiety profiles: (1) C high-MF mid profile, (2) CMF low profile, and (3) F high-CM mid profile. A multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) showed profile differences except for mother’s negative behavior. It is suggested that children’s cognitive vulnerability and parenting behaviors were likely to aggravate anxiety issues within a family contexts.
