Abstract
Prior research has highlighted the influence of parenting on behavioral problems amongst youth, with less information on emerging adulthood. The present study surveyed 572 emerging adults aged 18 to 25 on their current experiences of parental discipline, emotion dysregulation, and aggression. Various direct and indirect effects were found.
