Parenting
- Our centre’s research emphasizes the importance of a nurturing environment that fosters healthy social-emotional development in children. Our center examines how such an environment can be created through emotional interactions between caregivers and children with hyperscanning techniques.
- Our centre explores the crucial impact of parenting practices on children’s mental health outcomes, investigating how different parenting styles can enhance or hinder a child’s growth at both behavioural and neural levels.
- Our centre also aims to develop intervention programmes on parents’ parenting attitudes and practices to facilitate a closer emotional connection between parents and their children, and to enable parents to fulfil a better role in their children’s social-emotional development.
