| Abstract | ||
| Introduction: Parenting plays an important role in the transition from adolescence to adulthood and socialization. Parenting behavior can restrict or reinforce optimal individuation amongst adolescents. Aim of the study: to assess the relationship between parenting style and behavioral problems in adolescents. Subjects and method: Correlational descriptive research design was used for this study. This study was conducted at four preparatory schools; 2 schools for urban areas and 2 for rural ones which were chosen randomly. A total sample is 363 adolescents. Two tools were used for this study: tool I youth self-report (YSR) to assess behavioral problems in adolescents and Parent Authority Questionnaire (PAQ) to assess Parenting styles (authoritative, permissive, and authoritarian). Results: there was a significant relation between authoritarian parenting style and both of internalizing and externalizing behavioral problems enlisted in youth self-report. The most significant factor affecting abnormal behavioral problems among adolescents is authoritarian parenting style. Conclusion: Authoritarian parenting style with low responsiveness and high demanding in parenting behavior has shown to be directly related to increased children’s internalizing and externalizing symptoms. Recommendations: Training programs for parents about the best style they should use with their children. | ||
