Sažetak
Parental behaviour is a significant protective factor and/or risk factor during childhood and adolescent years possibly leading to psychological problems and it is closely connected with psychosocial adjustment. This research paper attempts to establish whether parental behaviour plays a role in explaining adolescent behavioural problems.
The research was conducted on 172 students with an average age of 13.5 years. Parental behaviour was measured according to the Perceived Parental Behaviour Scale that recognises three dimensions of parental behaviour: rejection, acceptance and control. With regard to behavioural problems, the Youth Self Report Scale was used to measure internalised and externalised behavioural problems in children aged between six and eighteen years.
The results point out the importance of parental behaviour when determining the origination of adolescent behavioural problems. Furthermore, the research shows that internalised behavioural problems are more prevalent in girls. With regard to different dimensions of parental behaviour, psychological control coming from both parents was the most prominent one. The results are further interpreted in the context of social learning theory.
