Devika .R | Sneha Susan Thomas [2]


Abstract: This study aims to explore the relationships between perceived parenting style, achievement motivation, and social anxiety thoughts among adolescents. A sample of 200 participants from various locations within the Kozhikode district of Kerala was selected. The study employed tools such as the Perceived Parenting Style Divya, T. V Manikandan K, 2013, Achievement Motivation Inventory V. M Joshi, 2009, and Social Anxiety Thoughts Lorne m. Hartman, 1984. Statistical analyses were conducted using Spearman Correlational analysis, Mann Whitney U test, and regression analysis with SPSS software. The findings indicate a significant relationship between perceived parenting style and achievement motivation, and between achievement motivation and social anxiety thoughts. However, no significant relationship was found between perceived parenting style and social anxiety thoughts. Additionally, no gender differences were observed in perceived parenting style, achievement motivation, and social anxiety thoughts. The regression results suggest that perceived parenting style significantly influences achievement motivation but does not impact social anxiety thoughts.
