Perhaps most worrying of all, one of the studies found the causal effect of parents' failure mindsets on their responses to their children's hypothetical failure: 'Overall, parents who see failure as debilitating focus on their children's performance and ability rather than on their children's learning, and their children, in turn, tend to believe that their intelligence is fixed rather than malleable.'

One study found that parents' praise of children's effort at 14–38 months of age (e.g. 'Good job putting that block back in!') rather than natural ability ('You're a smart girl!') predicted growth mindsets at 7–8 years, suggesting that causal mechanisms identified in many experimental studies focused on school-related achievement may be operating on home environments too.
