The main purpose of this study was to examine the impact of adolescents' perceived parenting styles and some selected demographic factors on the self-regulation of Amanuel secondary and preparatory school adolescent students. The data related to the demographic characteristics, perceived parenting styles, and adolescent self-regulation were collected through self-report measures from a total of 349 (164 females and 185 males) adolescent students selected via stratified and simple random sampling techniques from all grade levels of the school. Descriptive statistics, one sample t-test, independent samples t-test, one way ANOVA, and Pearson product moment coefficient were used to analyze the data that were collected from samples of the study. The results revealed that family structure and perceived parenting style significantly affected Amanuel secondary and preparatory school adolescent students' selfregulation. Hence, adolescents who were from intact families had significantly higher selfregulation than those who were from non-intact families. In addition, adolescents who perceived their parents as authoritative had significantly higher self-regulation score than those who perceived their parents as authoritarian and neglectful. Sex, age, and parental education of participant adolescents did not significantly affect their self-regulation. The finding also indicated that there were statistically significant positive correlations between parental dimensions (parental responsiveness and parental demandingness) and adolescents' selfregulation. One can conclude that adolescent students of Machakel woreda had significant lower score of self-regulation; and parenting styles and structures of their families had significantly affected their level of self-regulation. Finally, recommendations were forwarded based on the findings of the present study.

Introduction: Helicopter parenting (HP) refers to a distinct type of perceived parenting. It is developmentally inappropriate levels of parent involvement and control in their children’s lives, which is often observable through their advice, direction, and help with problem. They even make decisions for their children and personally invest in their children’s goals. Today’s adolescents are expected to make decisions pertaining to their health related behaviour and career related choices. Decision-making refers to the capability of developing reliable level of competence to foresee the consequences of alternatives. It is the fourth phase of cognitive development which is normally reached during adolescence, and is synonymous with abstract thinking, logical reasoning, and problem-solving skills. Helicopter parenting has been shown to have negative outcomes in emerging adults but so far it has not been investigated in adolescents in India. Methods: This was a cross-sectional, correlational designed study to assess the relationship of Helicopter Parenting with Decision-Making styles of Adolescents and their academic performance. Secondary objectives were to ascertain the effect of adolescents’ variables on decision-making styles and Helicopter parenting scores. A sample size of 425 adolescents was taken. Results: The mean HP scores were higher than the western scores. HP showed a significant correlation with Maladaptive decision-making styles, with HP being a good predictor for maladaptive decision-making in adolescents, (R2=.077, F(1,423)= 35.086, p=.000. There was no significant correlation with ADM-Q Adaptive type but showed a good linear model with self-esteem subscale. There was no statistical significant effect of adolescent’s age on HPS. There was a significant negative correlation of HP scores with above average academic performance (0.115, p=0.017) and with total scores (0.106, p=0.029).Academic performance was a good negative predictor for HP (R2=0.011, F (1,424)= 4.800, p=0.029). Conclusions: Indian adolescents score high on HP scale. However Indian adolescents prefer not to strongly agree on HPS items and rather remain more non-decisive with a mean score of 3.559. We also found that a higher HPS score predicts maladaptive decision-making style and negatively predicts the self-esteem subscale of adaptive decision-making styles. Implications: We need to educate the parents about the detrimental effects of helicopter parenting in order to have more self-reliant adolescents.

The objective of this study is to identify the bidirectional relationship between parenting style and selfregulation among Filipino university studens. The relationship was assessed using the Scale of Parenting Style and Self-Regulation Questionnaire. Statistical results showed that many of the freshmen (48%) and senior (44%) university students have a negligent style for self regulation. It also showed that there is negligible correlation between the parenting style and the self-regulation of senior and freshmen university students (p < .05). It was revealed that freshmen students have poorer self-control, and this is not just due to having uninvolved parents; other factors may play a role. Senior students of the said university today are more controlled with their emotions and behaviours despite having negligent parents, most probably due to other factors such as self-determination. Selfregulation level may be high or low regardless of what type of parenting style the children’...

Understanding whether there is a relationship between perceived parental authority styles and self-esteem in high school students is the main purpose of the study. In addition, the effects of gender, age, mother's education level, father's education level and family's economic status on perceived parental authority styles and self-esteem were investigated. Whether the variables fit the normal distribution or not was tested with the Shapiro-Wilk test, and the variables that did not fit the normal distribution were given with median, minimum and maximum values. "Mann Whitney U" test was used in the analysis of the differences between the two groups, and the "Kruskal Wallis H" test was used for the differences between 3 or more groups. Relationships between variables were analyzed using "Spearman Correlation Coefficient". Statistical analyzes were made using IBM SPSS Statistics 22.0 program. Significance level was taken as 0.05. 209 male and 210 female high school students participated in the research. It was observed that the participants defined their family's parent attitudes as highly democratic, medium-level protective-willing, and low-level authoritarian. It was observed that the democratic parental attitude did not have a significant effect on the self-esteem of individuals, and the self-esteem perceptions of the participants with protective-willing and authoritarian parental attitudes were found to be high. There was no significant effect of gender and age factors on the perception of parental attitudes and self-esteem level. It was observed that as the education level of the mother increased, the democratic parental attitude perceived by the participants also increased. There was no significant relationship between mother's education level and selfesteem. It was observed that as the father's education level increased, the perceived democratic parental attitude ratio also increased, but a significant relationship was not found between the father's education level and the participants' self-esteem level. It has been observed that the very high economic level of the family increases the authoritarian parental attitude rate compared to families with medium economic status. It was observed that the self-esteem of the participants with low income level was higher than the participants with middle and high income level. It was determined that the family's economic status did not have a significant effect on protective-willing and democratic parenting attitudes.
