Abstract

Based on past research, this study confirms the importance of parenting styles and personality. A Big Five personality type and parenting style scale were used. There were several studies that investigated the interaction between parenting style and personality, but there has been a shortage of research on this issue in Pakistan. The connection between parenting styles and personality was investigated in this study. This research comprised 105 students between the ages of 18 and 22. A probability sampling method was used to select the samples. This study was quantitative in nature. The Pearson correlation approach was applied to analyze the data. The results indicated that the five factors in the Big Five personality type are strongly correlated with parenting style scale factors. The study also looked into how parenting styles promote the personality development of youth.

Keywords: Parents, parenting style, students, adolescents, personality development.
