Abstract

Present study examined the moderating effect of perceived social support between authoritative parenting style and goal achievement among college students of Sargodha. Data was collected from 200 boys through parenting style scale by Robinson et al., (1995), MSPSS scale by Zimet et al. (1988) and Goal achievement scale by Elliot and Church (1997). To achieve objectives multiple statistical analyses were conducted descriptive statistics, reliability analyses, Pearson correlation and moderation analysis. The results revealed that all variables are significantly correlated with each others. Perceived social support moderated between authoritative parenting style and goal achievement. The findings suggest that enhancing perceived social support can strengthen the positive impact of authoritative parenting on adolescents’ goal achievement. Therefore, interventions targeting supportive environments may help maximize the benefits of effective parenting practices
