Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: The major focus of this research was to analyse the link between various parenting styles as well as emotional regulation skills of high students and to find out which style can best predict effective emotional regulation. The study used a correlational research design based on a purposive sample of 90 students aged 14–18. The required data were collected using two scales namely the Inventory of Parenting Style and Scale of Emotional Maturity. The conducted analyses were limited to correlation and MANOVA tests. Results showed a statistically significant positive correlation between parenting style and emotional maturity (p < 0.05). The findings of MANOVA (Pillai’s Trace = 0.116, F = 3.17, p = 0.028) suggested that the authoritative parenting style had the most significant influence on emotional regulation. The research endorses the idea that parental authority, which features love, is considered and exercised in a well-balanced manner among other qualities, and is what really enhances high school students’ ability to regulate their emotions, become resilient, and mature, especially among Indian students.
