Abstract
This study of variables associated with maternal monitoring of child`s whereabouts and daily activities was conducted with 1500 children (8 and 13 years of age) and their mothers. They responded to questionnaires on monitoring knowledge, sources of maternal information (maternal solicitation and/or child disclosure), and demographic variables. Data were analyzed by Pearson`s r, ANOVA, and regression analysis. Mothers` knowledge of her child`s activities and whereabouts and the sources of her knowledge were associated with mothers` higher level of education. Child`s age was related to mother`s knowledge and maternal solicitation. Maternal solicitation and child`s age were highly predictive of mothers` knowledge of her child`s whereabouts and activities. Results of this study may have applications for parental supervision and child rearing attitudes.
