ABSTRACT
(1) Objectives:
The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between mindful parenting and children's creative tendencies and to investigate the mediating role of parent-child intimacy and connectedness to nature in the relationship between mindful parenting and children's creative tendencies. (2)Methods:
In this cross-sectional study, nearly 800 mothers of children aged 3-6 were enrolled. General sociodemographic data, the Mindfulness in Parenting Questionnaire (MIPQ), the Creativity Assessment Packet (CAP), the Child-Parent Relationship Scale-Short Form (CPRS-SF), and the Connectedness to Nature Index-Parents of Preschool Children (CNI-PPC) were all included in the questionnaire survey. (3)Results:
There were significant positive correlations among mindful parenting, parent-child intimacy, connectedness to nature, and children's creative tendencies. Mindful parenting had a positive predictive effect on children's creative tendencies. Parent-child intimacy played a mediating role between mindful parenting and children's creative tendencies. Connectedness to nature played a mediating role between mindful parenting and children's creative tendencies. The correlation between mindful parenting and children's creative tendencies may be impacted by the chain mediation effects of parent-child intimacy and connectedness to nature. (4)Conclusions:
By promoting parent-child intimacy and connectedness to nature, and by utilizing the chain mediating effects of both, mindful parenting positively impacted children's creative tendencies.
