Drug abuse is one of the most serious social issues in Malaysia. Therefore, this  quantitative study was conducted to identify the relationship between parenting styles and the risk of drug abuse among youths. A set of questionnaires were distributed to respondents at IKTBN Chembong. A total of 123 students of IKTBN Chembong were involved in this study. Two instruments were used in this study, Baumrind's Parenting Styles Questionnaire (1967) and the Drug Abuse Screening Test (DAST-20). The results showed that authoritative parenting style was the highest style used by parents (37.86%) followed by authoritarian parenting style (35.32%) while permissive parenting style was (30.01%). Testing for hypotheses was carried out using the Pearson Correlation test. The findings show that there is a significant correlation between permissive parenting style and drug abuse risk (r = .61). Authoritarian parenting lifestyle with drug abuse risks showed a weak and positive relationship (r =.119) while for authoritative parenting style with drug abuse risks showed a weak and negative relationship (r = .005). The implication of this study is the importance of parenting styles in dealing with the risks of drug abuse against youth in the future.

This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between parenting styles and childhood dental caries using a sample of 3 to 6 years old children in Korea.<br/>The subjects were 158 children aged 3 to 6 years old and their parents in Korea. The parenting styles were divided into three groups (authoritative, authoritarian, and permissive) using a translated version of the Parenting Styles and Dimensions Questionnaire (PSDQ).<br/>Among the 353 parents/child dyads, 158 questionnaires were returned. Authoritative parenting style was the majority (95.6%), followed by authoritarian (3.8%), and permissive (0.6%). There were no statistically significant differences between dental caries and parenting styles. The mean of dft index in authoritative group was lower than others. In the authoritative domain, the higher the authoritative tendency, the lower the dft index.<br/>Overall, authoritative parenting styles resulted in low rates of dental caries for the children. The stronger the authoritative tendency of the parents, the lower the experience of dental caries in the children. Therefore, parenting styles were likely to affect the oral health of a child, but it seemed necessary to supplement the evaluation tool to evaluate the parenting styles.

<p><span>Adolescents undergo drastic changes in terms of physical, cognitive, emotional, and psychosexual aspects. Those changes result in unstable emotions within themselves. Accompanied with high level of curiosity as a process of searching for identity, this emotional instability causes adolescents to frequently engage in actions that do not comply with the rules and norms of the society, known as juvenile delinquency. This stud aims at discovering whether permissive, authoritative, and authoritarian parenting styles are related to juvenile delinquency tendency. The participants of this study are 151 students from X school. This study can be considered as a quantitative research with correlational non-experimental design. Due to abnormal data distribution, Spearman correlation test was used to analyze the data. This study concluded that authoritarian and permissive parenting styles are not related to juvenile delinquency tendency (p&gt;0.05) whereas authoritative parenting style is significantly related to juvenile delinquency tendency (p&lt;0.05). Furthermore, the direction of the relationship between authoritative parenting style and juvenile delinquency tendency revealed negative correlation, which means the more authoritative the parenting style is, the lower the tendency will be.</span></p><p><span> </span></p><p><strong><span>Keywords:</span></strong><span> Juvenile delinquency, authoritative parenting style, authoritarian parenting style, permissive parenting style</span></p>

Baumrind’s (1971) theoretical model of parenting styles was used. It is comprised of authoritative, authoritarian and permissive parenting styles. The Parental Authority Questionnaire (Buri, 1991) was used and modified in order to assess the three parenting styles based on parents’ perception. After consultation with experts, Researcher developed the Academic Performance Questionnaire, which was used to assess the students’ performance with regard to their educational motivation, communication skills, learning skills, creativity, positive attitude and study skills in this correlational study. Both instruments were developed on five point Likert scale. The target population of the study comprised of students of higher secondary level along with their parents studying at 17 Islamabad Model Colleges of both boys and girls. The sample was drawn from 10 Islamabad Model Colleges. The total number of respondents comprising the sample was 350 students 17-20 years old. Stratified random sampling was used to represent both genders equally. The correlation between parenting styles and academic performance was computed through Pearson’s correlation coefficient (r). The results of study showed that authoritative parenting style of mother and father had a positive relationship with academic performance. While the authoritarian and permissive parenting style of mother and father were negatively correlated with academic performance. Overall, the authoritative style of parenting proved to be appositive style and authoritarian and permissive styles proved to be negative styles of parenting in the cultural context of Islamabad.

Background: The type of parent’s child rearing and the perception of problems by adolescents are one of the important reasons for the formation of inappropriate behavior and delinquency in adolescents. Objectives: The purpose of the present study was to determine the relationship of perceived parenting styles with self-control capacity and affective self-regulation among delinquent adolencents. Materials & Methods: The research type was descriptive-correlational. The population of this study included all delinquent adolescents (N=94) from the Guilan Provincial Reconstruction and Upbringing Center and temporary detention centers in 2017-2018. Seventy-three adolescents were selected and completed the Parenting Style Inventory (PSI), Tangney Self-Control Scale (TSCS) and Measure of Affect Regulation Styles (MARS). The data were processed using Pearson correlation coefficient and stepwise multiple regression analyses by SPSS V. 22 software. Results: Regression analysis indicated that authoritative parenting style positively (β=0.906, P<0.001) and authoritarian parenting style negatively (β=-0.537, P<0.001) 38% of the changes were predicted in the SCS among delinquent adolencents (F=20.511. P<0.001). Also, the authoritative parenting style negatively (β=-0.641, P<0.001) 41% of the changes were predicted in the MARS among delinquent adolencents (F=47.543, P<0.001). The permissive parenting style was not statistically significant in any of the regression analyses (P>0.05). Conclusion: Parenting styles have an effective role in the emergence and inhibition of delinquent behavior. It seems that authoritarian and authoritative parenting styles respectively play a role in improving and weakening self-control capacity and affective self-regulation in delinquent behavior among adolencents boys.

No two parents view things in the same way when it comes to raising their children. In this light, the current study attempted to establish a link between parenting methods and gender role ideas. This study used a correlational research design. We selected 300 individuals from a population of 1480 using stratified and simple random selection procedures. The participants’ parenting styles were assessed using Buri’s (1991) Parental Authority Questionnaire (PAQ), and their sex role beliefs were assessed using Williams and Best’s Sex-Role Ideology Scale (SRIS) (1990). Moment of Pearson-Product Correlation was used to determine the relationship between parenting methods and sex role ideology, while regression was utilised to determine the variables’ predictions. It was discovered that parenting techniques had no effect on the participants’ sex-role ideas. Individuals with an authoritative parenting style, on the other hand, were more likely to develop a more modern sex-role ideology, whereas those with an authoritarian parenting style developed a more conventional sex-role ideology. Additionally, both sex and religion predicted modern and traditional sex-role ideas, respectively. Tribe anticipated an authoritative parenting style without regard for either permissive or authoritarian parenting methods. The study recommends that because parenting styles are related to sex-role ideology, guidance and counselling coordinators should place a premium on the most effective parenting style in order to help students develop an acceptable sex role ideology.

The study used a descriptive method utilizing observation of the six subjects in the preschool level of UB VDTALC, the parenting style, and Dimension Questionnaire is a survey tool for the parents of the six subjects and the Key-informants interview among the teachers. It was found out that most of the subjects' parents use Authoritarian parenting styles and sometimes use Authoritative and Permissive parenting styles. Five out of six subjects exhibit more positive behavior to parents who most often use the Authoritative Parenting Style. Only one child exhibits negative behaviors to parents who most often use Authoritative Parenting Style but has the lowest overall composite mean in the Authoritative Parenting Style. This study will help parents and early childhood educators know what roles to take in terms of their parenting style.
