Abstract

Family is the first informal institution in which children grow and develop, internalizing values, norms and beliefs as well as a place in which disciplines are applied to form principles of the mental and self in the future, and for children to get the required attention and love from the parents and the family which can raise their potentials and development. One of the ways to measure the parents' parenting skills is by parenting-self-efficacy, that is, a self-evaluation towards their ability in playing the parenting roles to give positive effects to the behaviours and developments of the children. This study aims to examine the effect of parenting efficacy on children's social-emotional development. The research method used in this study is descriptive quantitative with explanatory method. The sample was taken by random sampling technique with 100 students from 4 B-class kindergartens in Malang Regency. The data are analysed using simple regression analysis with a result showing that parenting efficacy has positive and significant effects on children's social-emotional development. The higher the parent's efficacy level, their children's social-emotional development gets higher too. Parenting efficacy needs more attention in order to maximally improve children's development.
