Abstract

Psychology has developed an interest in parenting styles and how they affect teenagers' psychosocial development. The current study aims to explore the role of parenting style on adolescent self-efficacy and self-esteem. The study was conducted on 140 adolescents from Kerala within the age group of 15-19, in which 70 were boys and 70 were girls. The variables such as parenting style, self-efficacy, and self-esteem were assessed using scale of parenting style, general self-efficacy scale and Rosenberg’s self-esteem scale respectively. Correlation test and t-test were carried out to analyse the data collected from the participants. Results showed that, there exists no significant relationship between parenting style and other variables namely, self-efficacy and self-esteem. No significant difference was found between male and female in parenting style, self-efficacy and self-esteem.
