Sažetak
The aim of this paper is to explore whether parental monitoring contributes to delinquency directly or indirectly through association with deviant peers, and whether this differs for boys and girls. Analyzed data was gathered in 2006, on a representative sample of 887 pupils (463 boys and 418 girls, age 11-16). Direct contribution of parental monitoring to delinquency was assessed with hierarchical regression analysis, while indirect contribution was assessed with mediation analyses. In both analyses, parental alcoholism and conflict between parents were control variables. Results showed that lower parental monitoring directly contributes to more expressed delinquency of boys and girls likewise. Also, results revealed that on sample of boys parental monitoring does not show indirect contribution to delinquency through association with deviant peers, while on sample of girls, parental monitoring shows partially indirect contribution.
