Abstract

The present study aimed to find the relationship between authoritarian parenting and aggression in youngsters. A sample of (N = 30) male and female youngsters were included for the study. Parental Authority Questionnaire (PAQ) developed by John R Buri in 1991 and Aggression Scale developed by Dr Guru Pyari Mathur and Dr Raj Kumari Bhatnagar were applied to collect data. Collected data were analyzed statistically. Results show that there is a relationship between authoritarian parenting and aggression in youngsters. The study concludes that high levels of aggression in youth can be caused due to authoritarian parenting.
