Parenting Styles and Self-esteem

Year: 2011

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: This study was examined the relationship between parenting styles and self-esteem. Five-hundred-forty six Shiraz University students (240 girls and 306 boys) were participants of the study. Steinberg's Parenting Styles Scale (2005) and Coopersmith's self-esteem scale (CSEI) were used as measures of the study. Simultaneous multiple regression of CSEI total score on the parenting styles subscales, revealed that the “acceptance-involvement” and “psychological autonomy-granting” styles were significant positive predictors of the self-esteem. Also, the results of analysis t-test showed that the mean score of girls was significantly greater than boys in the “behavioral strictness-supervision” style.
