Egna Minnen Betraffande Uppfostran- Short Form (S-EMBU) – Parent & Child

The S-EMBU (Swedish for "My memories of upbringing") (Arrindell et. al, 1999) consists of 23 items designed to assess perceptions of parental rearing behaviors. The Short Form questionnaires (parent and child) consist of three subscales: rejection (7 items), emotional warmth (6 items), overprotection/control (9 items), and 1 unscaled item. Items are answered on a 4-point Likert scale (1=No, 2=Yes, but seldom, 3= Yes, often, 4= Yes, most of the time).
