The Argentine Scale of Children Perception of Parental Relationships, the Physical and Verbal Aggression Scale and the Emotional Instability Scale, were administered to 583 Spanish and Argentine 8 to 12 year old children. Results indicate that: 1) aggression and emotional instability are highly related; 2) parental style dimensions are related in different ways with emotional instability and aggressiveness and this relationship follows approximately the same patterns in socially vulnerable and middle class children; 3) a mother and a father s behaviour is differently related to emotional regulation in children; 4) psychological models that associate some parental behaviours with children s socio-emotional development, remain invariant through the different socioeconomic strata and national cultures here studied.  a1134-7937  a2174-0437
